The burden of students has been a hot topic for years, but the load of parents has received little attention, especially from their own children.The picture shows us a touching moment when a little girl comes to greet her working mother. Realizing her mother must be very tired after a day’s work, the girl helps to remove the bag from her shoulder. In response, the mother kneels down to show how happy and thankful she feels.All this reminds me of my mother who has been doing whatever she could to let me have the best. But, totally engaged in my own study, I seldom pay attention to what Mother needs and feels, and always think studying well is the only thing I could do in return. Now I know I can do my bit to help with the everyday washing, bedroom cleaning, or at least prepare breakfast myself, so as to share Mother’s daily burden. The picture convinces me it is even more important to be a good daughter than a “good” student.2Attitude is altitudeNick is a 25-year-old Australian man, whose life is full of hardships. He was born without limbs. He used to be made fun of for looking like a monster. Everything seemed impossible to him. However, Nick never gave up. After many failures,he finally learned to swim, fish and even surf. What surprised us is that he completed university education and got two degrees. And now he is the CEO of two companies.When asked about the secret of his success, Nick’s answer is: Attitude is altitude. In his eyes, nothing is impossible if he is determined to overcome any difficulties. He thinks a positive attitude is the key to success.After reading Nick’s story, I have been feeling inspired by his spirit. Compared with him, we are healthy enough to enjoy life. Somehow, we are always frustrated facing difficulties. I think Nick has set a good example for us. Try to appreciate what we do have and be more persevering and you will achieve success in the end.3What is happiness? Different people have different views on it. For example, some believe that if they have much money, they will get and everything they want to. And they will feel happy. Some think that they shoulder be in good health. If so, they can enjoy whatever they like. Others wish to have much wealth from their parents. In this way they don’t have to work hard,and they can own everything, which they think is happiness.I don’t quite agree with the above views on happiness. I don’t think money means happiness. As is known to us all, we can’t buy everything with money, such as friendship and knowledge. I value knowledge, which makes me happy. Knowledge is power. I can do much for mankind with knowledge. Of course, I can do my work better with it to make my life better. Although different people value happiness differently, my happiness comes from my study.Dear editor,I’m Li Ming of Senior Three, Guangming Middle School. I’m writing to tell you about some symptoms of anxiety among us students before exams.Most of us feel nervous whenever we’re taking an important exam. Some will feel dizzy or tired, some will suffer from lack of sleep, and some will lose their appetite. In fact, all these symptoms have terrible effects on our exams and we are all eager to get rid of them.First of all,in my opinion,it’s important for us to have a right attitude towards exams. They are only a means of checking how we are getting along with our studies, so there is no need to worry too much about the results. Study hard every day and make careful plans for every exam. In this way we can avoid suffering from the pressure of exams.Besides, enough sleep can make us energetic and enable us to perform well in an exam. Therefore, during the period of exams, we should not stay up too late. We can also try a warm bath or a cup of warm milk before going to bed. They might help us to have a sound sleep.(We’d better go out for a walk or do some outdoor exercise before and during an exam so that we can keep ourselves relaxed and then concentrate ourselves on exams.)5Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.Some of us are having problems with our parents, as they often look into our school bags or read our diaries. I fully understand why we are not comfortable about it, but there’s no need to feel too sad. Our parents are checking our bags or diaries to make sure we’re not getting into any trouble. They have probably heard some horrible stories about other kids and thought we might do the same. Or perhaps they just want to connect with us but are doing it all wrong. My suggestion is: Tell them we want them to trust us as muc h as we’d like to trust them. If you don’t think you can talk to them, write them a letter and leave it lying around—they are bound to read it.Thank you!6Recently our class had a discussion about whether the students should attend auxiliary classes during the summer vacation.52% of the students agree to it because they can follow their interests and learn more about their favorite subjects.Besides,they can gain more knowledge by receiving instructions from their tutors so that they can improve their academic performance.However,48% of the students are strongly against it.They think it adds more burdens to their study,which in turn reduces their time to have fun and relax.In my opinion,the summer vacation is a good time for us to rest and to do what we like.You can make your own decision based on your interest.Something Special For ParentsNot long ago, Student Union in our school advocated that Senior Three students should do something special for their parents on their 18th birthday. All the students were actively in response to it and most of them have come up with their ideas. Some choose to write a letter, saying it’s the best way to express their appreciation as well as love for their dearest parents. Others prefer to cook a big meal to show that they’ve already grown up.As for me, I tend to do up hair, wash feet and cut finger-nails for my parents. By doing what parents have been doing for me I can really know how much they devote to bringing me up. Also, being eighteen years old means it’s time that I should take responsibility to take care of them.8Welcome to the column“English Writing”!Recently the school website has set up a new column called “English Writing” which provides students with the chances to post their compositions and communicate with each other .

Discussion about the issue has become very heated throughout the country, especially in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.As is shown in the pie chart, 48%of the people surveyed tend to support this policy. They think that it will promote fair education. On the contrary, 19% of the people surveyed think otherwise. They are opposed to the policy, which, in their opinion, is not beneficial to the promotion of fair education. Meanwhile, 23% of the hold that it will be very difficult to carry out the college matriculation policy for migrant children. And very few (10%) people express their view that,while performing the policy, the governments should pay attention to protecting the local’s legal interests.As far as I’m concerned, I’m in favor of the policy. On one hand, it can allow the migrant children to enjoy equal opportunity for education. On the other hand, it will have a profound effect in China’s field of education.10Recently, parents, students, and teachers sometimes care much about test results, especially when kids fail.Some parents, when their kids fail in an exam, choose to yell at their kids and complain much about present education system while their kids would blame the bad results on teachers. Teachers, who always work hardest, have more complaints like lack of co-operation from parents and less hard work of students. What should be the appropriate attitude towards test results is always under hot discussion. Gladly, most parents nowadays are quite aware of their own responsibilities. They would co-operate more with teachers afterwards and give enough guidance to their kids. Teachers will undoubtedly re-consider and thus improve their teaching methods aiming to increase classroom efficiency. Students will certainly study harder.In my opinion, it is always the best for family, students and schools to co-operate closely. When kids fail, everybody should be brave enough to bear responsibilities and find practical solutions to avoid similar mistakes. It surely benefits a lot in the construction of a harmonious society as well as forming a friendly relationship between families and schools.11Recently, our class have had a heated discussion about whether we should live in the city. The opinions are divided.Some of my classmates are in favor of living in the city. Firstly, there are more career opportunities in big cities which they think are very important to their future development, because big companies have their headquarters located in big cities. Secondly, they think living in a big city is very comfortable. For one thing, it is convenient to take a bus or a taxi. On top of these, cities have parks, restaurants and other entertainment places where they can seek excitement. But most small towns have none of these.However, some other students hold a different opinion. They think the expenses of living are high in big cities. Furthermore, big cities are very crowded with too many people. The air is polluted which contributes to the poor living environment.As far as I’m concerned, every coin has two sides. But on matter where we live, we shouldwork hard, protect natural environment and save energy.12结合社会实际，请你谈谈出国留学的利弊。
