What do we do when we go camping? First, we make a plan(计划). We take food, clothing, a knife, and things for cooking and eating. We take things to keep us away from insects(昆虫) and the sun.
Then we put everything into the car and we drive to the woods. We look for a place for campers(露营者) and we look for a good place for our tent(帐篷). The place should have a lot of moving air(流动的空气). This will keep some insects away. High land with water on both sides of it is good. Then we put up our tent. We put everything into the tent, and we are ready for fun. We can swim in the lake, walk in the woods, climb a mountain, row a boat, or go fishing.
In the evening we come back to the tent, and we make a big fire because it can keep the insects away. We sit around the fire and talk. We may tell interesting stories or we may sing songs.
At night we lie down on the grass. We can look up at the stars. It is a busy day, so we try to go to sleep early.
Everything is dark. Everything is quiet. We hope we won’t hear music from the radio in the next tent. We hope it won’t rain.

My problem is my parents. They never stop going on about how I should keep my room tidy, keep my hair tidy and wear smart clothes. They even make me do the washing-up after dinner every night! None of my friends have got such terrible parents. What should I do?
Helen, USA
Why do you think you’re the only one with parents like that? All parents are the same. They want us to look like them. They don’t understand that fashion have changed in the past 30years!
Tom, Canada
Hi, Helen. I think you should do what your parents ask. They’re much older than you and you should respect them. It’s their house you live in and their money you spend!

Helen, why should your parents do all the washing-up? You should help around the house---it’s only fair. I don’t think you should change your appearance though. Teenagers should look like teenagers.

Having Fun “Growing” and “Stealing”?
Recently, an Internet game has become a new fashion among young office workers and students. People can “farm” on a piece of “land” and “grow”, “sell” or even “steal” “vegetables”, “flowers”, and “fruits” on the Net. They can earn some e-money and buy more “seeds”, “pets”, and even “houses”.
Joyce interviewed some young people. Here are their opinions.
Harold： I don’t quite understand why they are so mad about the childish game. Maybe they are just not confident enough to face the real world.
Allan：I enjoy putting some “bugs” in my friends’ gardens and we’ve become closer because of the game. Having fun together is the most exciting thing about it.
Laura：You know, people in the city are longing for the life in the countryside. It reduces my work pressure. Besides, it gives me the exciting experience of being a “thief”.

Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy. They feel heavy pressures from their parents. Most students are always told by their parents to study harder and better so that they can have a wonderful life in the future. Though this may be a good idea for those smart students, it can have terrible results for many students who are not gifted enough. Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hope. Such students feel that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they don’t want to go to school any more. They become dropouts(退学者).
It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they don’t help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers’ work to help children. To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to those schools opening in the evenings and on weekeds—they only help the students to pass the exams and never teach them any real sense of the world.
Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students’ hair to their clothes and the things in their school bags. Child psychologists now think that such strict rules are harmful(有害的) to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong and how to show love and care for others, even for their parents.How are Japanese students nowadays?
A、They work hard and all of them are happy.
