At the age of 12, Edison found a job on a train selling newspapers. Before long, he set up a lab on it. When his work was finished, he would experiment. Four years later, he decided to spend more time inventing things.

The theme of the festival is, “ Do an act of kindness. Help one person smile.” This can be as simple as smiling at everyone you meet. You can also cook a dish for your parents or give a small gift to your friend.

Hello, everyone. I am Chris. Today I’m going to tell you something on how to become a successful learner.
First, create an interest in what you learn. If you are interested in something, it is easier to pay attention to it for a long time. You should often connect what you need to learn with something interesting. For xample, if you need to learn English and you like music, you can listen to English songs. You will not get bored.
Second, develop your study skills. You should know the best way you can study. For example, you may take notes by writing down key words or by drawing mind maps. You should also review what you have learned by explaining the information to another student.
Third, ask questions. Knowledge comes from questioning and you should often ask questions during or after class. You’d better ask each other and try to find out the answers.
I hope these tips are helpful for you to become a successful learner.
