    Helping and learning At our school, we sometimes have a special day/ to help others. Last year/ we went to an old people’s home/ and sang songs/ and performed a play /for them. The old people were very happy. We should be allowed/ to take time/ to do things/ like that/ more often. For example, we should visit primary schools/ and help teach young students. I want to be a teacher/ when I'm older/ so it would be a great experience/ for me. Other students would like to do other jobs. For example, my friend Tian Ge wants/ to write for a newspaper. She should be allowed/ to volunteer/ at the newspaper office/ once a week. On Friday afternoons, many students are sleepy/ after a long week of classes. Some students should be allowed/ to have Friday afternoons off/ to volunteer and help others. Dear Editor, I would like to reply to the article “Helping and Learning in your last newspaper. I agree with some ideas and disagree with others. The article said that students should be allowed to go to an old people’s home and sing songs and perform a play for them. That is very good for us. We should be allowed to take time to do things like that more often. We should be allowed to visit primary schools and help teach young students. Your article said that helping teach young students would be a great experience for us. I disagree with you on that. Some of us would like to do other jobs than teaching in the future. So helping teach young students at primary schools would be a waste of time for them. For example, my friend Tian Ge wants for a newspaper. People like her should be allowed to volunteer at the newspaper office more often. You said also that students should be allowed to have sleepy Friday afternoons off to volunteer and help others. I do not agree with you on that. We have worked the whole working days. On Friday afternoons we have to take a rest first. We need time to relax ourselves first and then we can do some volunteering work helping others. Sincerely yours, John F. Ken Just for fun To end this busy period we shall take time to learn and read aloud an English poem for kids. My Feet My feet, my feet, I love my feet. I think they're great, I think they're neat. They're pretty, pink, and picturesque. They look so perfect on my desk. Unfortunately, sad to tell, they also have a funny smell. So though I'm fast, and though I'm fleet, and though at sports I can't be beat, no team will pick me to compete, because they always smell defeat. --Kenn Nesbitt Reading: Should I be allowed to make my own decisions? Before you read, go over the new words for this part on 148. While you read, listen to the recording and underline all the expressions. Many teenagers have hobbies. But sometimes these hobbies can get in the way of schoolwork, and parents might worry about their child's success at school. Teenagers often think they should be allowed to practice their hobbies as much as they want. Do you agree? Liu Yu, a fifteen-year-old from Shandong, is a running star. He is in his school running team, and has always wanted to be a professional athlete. However, his parents won't allow him to train as much as he would like to. "Of course we want to see Liu Yu achieve his dreams, says Mr Liu, “and we know how much he loves running. That's great, and my wife and I watched him in every one of his races. We have nothing against running! But we do think that our son needs to be realistic. Now he is getting older, he needs to think about what will happen if he doesn't become a professional runner in the end. Liu Yu doesn't really agree. “Well, I think I should be allowed to make decisions for myself, he says. “ My parents have always taught me the importance of working hard and not just to do what I enjoy. I understand this. But I'm serious about running. Being a professional runner is the only thing I have ever wanted to do. Mr and Mrs Liu believe that Liu Yu should study hard in the evenings, and so they don't allow him to practice running on school nights. “I know this might seem strict, says Mrs Liu, “but we think we're doing the right thing. He has to understand that very few people can become professional athletes. It's a very difficult dream to achieve. We don't allow him to practice every day because we think he needs to spend time on his homework. But Liu Yu still doesn't agree. “I know my parents care about me, he says. “But they are always talking about what will happen if I don't succeed. But I will succeed! I think I should be allowed to make this decision myself. Only then will I have a chance of achieving my dream. After you read, read aloud the text again, to yourself, or to the tape and copy down all the expressions, too. Part 2: Teaching Resources The Trouble with Teenagers People now care more about what teenagers are thinking about and feeling because they know there are hard moments in the life of teenagers. Varieties of troubles are seriously puzzling teenagers, such as hard study, the gap between parents and kids, relationship between themselves and their classmates, teachers and friends. Among them, the problem of "the generation gap" has become more and more obvious. The argument on this is widely spread. Different people hold different views. But we cannot fail to admit the fact that there are no hearts as delicate as those of teenagers, as everything is happening to them for the first time. Teenagers are certainly different from adults in many ways. They don't know the right way in which they can make everyone happy and satisfied. They are certainly lack of experience. That's why parents are always complaining about their being misunderstood. They say, they love their kids so much as to do everything for them. Is that the true love their children want? No, teenagers say, the true love which they long for should contain courage, correct guide and support instead of endless complaints about marks, marks, marks and strong pressure. So the teenagers are now even said to have been leading a harder life. The trouble with teenagers is that they haven't learned how to be controlled. Living life right down the middle, with all its attendant landmines, is all they know. It hasn't occurred to them to run in a zigzag pattern. They are more emotional than people think. If something serious happens to them, they will be deeply hurt. You can always hear the voice from a teenager that they haven't learned enough how to appear to be fine. The adults have recognized that they should show more care for the teenagers, especially their school life. Teenagers have their own special way of thinking. I have also got my own troubles. My grandpa passed away in September last year, which has greatly changed my life. He was even one of my best friends ever since I was born. He lived with my family for the past 18 years, the happiest time in his eyes. I have never admitted his death as a fact till now. Things which happened between us have come to my mind. All over again, I felt those powerful losses crisscrossing my own heart, and I know that when you say goodbye to a beloved grandparent, you say goodbye to something happy, something young in yourself. And that something never really returns and the pain never really goes away. No matter how hard a life the teenagers are leading, they will forever stand still and march forward straight and bravely. 【查看更多】

    Dear Reader,
    Think about an 11-year-old child spending her days washing clothes, looking after a baby brother, and doing hard work on the farm.
    Think about a little girl. She knows there will not be enough food for dinner, and has no water to drink because it is not clean. She has watched her father, brother and sister lose their lives as the family has no money to send for a doctor.
    Hard to believe? For Maria Pastora, these are the facts of life.
    Maria would gladly walk to school, but her mother, now alone, really needs her at home. Maria had to leave school to work for her poor family.
    But for five dollars a week, you can help out a child like Maria. Show her that somewhere, some­one will help her. Through Save the Children, you can help Maria's mother get better crops (收成) from their farm, and earn the money to buy clothes and things for school.
    To help Maria most, your money is to put to­gether with other helpers, so hardworking people can help themselves. Build a school or a hospital, make their farm better, bring in clean water... This is what Save the Children has been about since 1932.
    For you there are many returns. You can write letters to each other, get photos, or study reports. Know you are helping and saving another person in the same world as you. That's how Save the Chil­dren works. But without you, it can't work. Please take a moment to fill in this form to help a child like Maria and her village.
