A

Many school students cannot finish their homework before 10 o’clock in the evening. Textbook exercises have become a great burden on children and they hardly have time for play. This is something we should worry about.

Enjoying nature and playing are part of children’s lives and also a necessary part of their growing up.

Textbooks are important in the sense that they help children get knowledge, but other kinds of study are important. Some teachers point out that children have little imagination when they are asked to write compositions, they often have nothing interesting to say. Sitting in classroom all day, they have no chance to enjoy nature. How can we hope that they will develop creative ability? Nature is another kind of textbook and a far more important one for children. Teachers should put more tome and energy into encouraging students to learn nature.

A. the students spend too much time on their homework

B. the students should have more time to play and enjoy nature

C. the parents should worry about their children’s school life

D. the teachers should help students with their trouble on study

Parents are the closest people to you in the world. They love you just because you are you. And they would do anything for you.

Like a lot of middle school students, Zhuang Shuxia has a problem. She and her parents don’t get on well.

“I really want to be my Daddy’s little girl. But it feels like he just doesn’t understand. He

shouts at me and doesn’t believe me,” said Zhang, a junior 3 student in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.

Do you and your parents also have problems? Well, why don’t you all take a walk and have a talk on Saturday? It’s the International Day of Families. On May 15, people around the world give thanks for good things about their families and work on family problems.

A study last year showed that 1,500 Beijing families had the same as Zhuang’s family: the children, 12 to15 years old, didn’t like talking with their parents much. They weren’t happy at home.

Of course, lots of kids feel that way. But you and your parents will be much happier if you can be friends. Here are some ways to have a good talk with them.

◆ Find a good time to talk, like when you’re eating dinner, going out for a walk or watching TV. ◆ Tell them something you’re interested in, or ask them about their lives when they were young. They love to talk about it.

◆ Listen to them carefully, and look at them in the eyes.

◆ Be honest. Your parents will trust you more. And a trusting family is a happy family.

A. don’t know the International Day of Family B. don’t have a nice talk often

A. people should believe each other. B. people don’t share their ideas
