One spring, the boy's father gave each child a small tree to plant, "Whoever grows the best tree will get a favorite gift," he said to them. Seeing his brothers and sister watering the trees happily in the garden, a terrible idea hit his mind: he hoped the tree he planted would die soon. So he never cared about it.
A few days later, he was surprised to find it not only did not die but also grew some fresh leaves and it looked greener and healthier than the others. One night, looking at the bright moonlight outside the window he suddenly remembered what his teacher once said most plants grew at night.
Why not go to see the lovely tree? When he came to the garden, he found his father was watering his tree carefully.

How to Be a Good Learner?
As we know, the policy of "double-lightening the burden" has been carried out. Being a good learner has become even more important. But how to be a good learner? Here are some suggestions. (引出话题)
We are supposed to develop some good habits of learning. 【高分句型一】 For example, we should preview the lesson before class and review what we have learnt after class. We'd better make full use of the time at school. We ought to concentrate on our lessons in class and solve all the problems just in time. In this way, we will be able to finish our homework more efficiently. 【高分句型二】 To be a good learner, studying in groups and helping each other are also good for us. (建议)
In my opinion, all above is helpful to us to be a good learner. (我的观点)
