Many schools in China have snack shops on campus. Students can go there to buy snacks.

H    1    , it has become a thing of the past. Our g    2    has banned（禁止）snack shops in all schools across the country. The rule took effect on April 1.

This has caused a lot of discussion. Many students are sad about the ban. " W    3    snack shops, school will be less interesting," a student in Hangzhou said. "But some of the snacks at the shops are cheap and of low quality, which make the students u    4    ," a parent said.

The rule also asks schools to keep an eye on s    5    meals. Headmasters must eat with their students and give suggestions to improve food safety.

I need some help with my problems. I don’t know     1     to do! You’re so confident and always know how to solve problems, so I hope you can give me some pieces of     2    .

The first problem is about my parents. They have never let me do anything by     3    , so I depend on them for everything. This term, I often     4     the exams, so they’ve been really angry with me. Once they even shouted at me because of it. Their pressure（压力） is making it harder for me to do     5     in the schoolwork. But how can I let them know that?

The second one is about my     6    . They are always trying to get me to do things I don’t like. I want to     7     decisions on my own. I don’t want to do things because of the pressure from my classmates. How should I deal     8     this problem?

I’m always worrying about my looks. I think I’m too fat because I eat too     9     and never exercise. I have too many pimples(粉刺) on my face, too. I feel sad about it.

All these problems are making me feel stressed（有压力的） and sad. Now I’m     10     stressed that I can’t fall asleep every night. What can I do? Please help!

Yours,

Sandra

【推荐3】How should men behave?

How a man should dress, behave(表现) and talk has caused(引起) some     1     (discuss). This month,     2     article by Xinhua said that some men idols are paying too much attention to their appearance. They are different     3     the traditional man image(形象) of looking strong, they have slender frames(苗条身材) and dress     4     like girls. The article said this could have a     5     (bad) impact(影响) than other things on children, and for our country, it might be     6     (luck), because if men behave this way, China will never become the strong country it hopes to be.

But lots of people have different opinions about this. They say that gender(性别) can be shown     7     different ways.

“No matter     8     kind of personal style a man chooses to behave, strong or gentle, that doesn’t stop him from     9     (be) an excellent person, he can also be a     10     (success) person.” China Women’s Daily said in a report.

College is an exciting time to learn and to make friends that will last a lifetime. Many students do not like to worry about money, and they would rather not think about it. But it doesn’t matter whether a student’s parents pay for e    1     or whether the student works part-time to help pay for his or her education. All students can get into money t    2     if they don’t give attention to it.

The cost of a college education can be quite e    3     . In English-speaking countries, the average cost per student per year is well over US $10,000. Students must also pay for books, paper, pens, etc. These can cost $500 to $1,000 per year. Students who live in university housing pay thousands more per year for room and board. A    4     money for clothes, travel, and other personal expenses (花费), and the average cost of one year at a university can be $20,000 to $30,000 or more.

Students need to spend their money c    5    . At most universities, advisors can give students advice on how to plan to spend their money. They suggest this: at the start of a school semester (学期), write down your income (收入); for example, money you will get from your family or a part-time job. Then, list all of our expenses. Put your expenses into two g    6    : those that change (food, phone, books, travel), and those that will stay the same (tuition, room and board). Put all of your expenses together. Are they more than your income? Do you have enough money, or do you need more?

Learning not to spend more money than you have is not always easy. But for many, it is easier than borrowing money from family or friends.

The Blacks feel worried about their son Mike. Mike is in the     1     (three) grade now but he can not read or write. He makes loud     2     from his chair and waves (晃动) his hands around his head all the time. Usually, he can’t listen for more than two minutes at a time. Sometimes, he hits the other children. What’s     3     (bad), he also hits his teacher.

Mike has autism (孤独症). His brain cannot organize and manage information     4     (clear). He does not understand     5     world or the people around him.

Some parents worry that the other children lose too much     6     (learn) time when Mike is in the classroom. They think Mike will get a better education if he studies at a special program nearby. There, teachers know     7     to take care of students with autism.

But the Blacks     8     with those parents. In fact, a law (法律) which was made in 1988 says that students with disabilities (残疾) can be in normal classes. This gives them the same chances for success as everyone     9    .

The Blacks lived in Chicago before and Mike went to normal classes there. Mike got help from some special teachers, and the normal study was very good for him. “He was part of the school,” Mrs. Black told the     10     (report). “He also learned to hold hands with some of the children in his class.”

Mr. Chuck teaches Human Relations at Bakersfield College. One day, he walked     1     the classroom and told his students that their homework was to do a random（随机的）kindness. His students did not understand the homework, but the professor did not     2     their questions. He encouraged his students to find it out by     3    . One week     4    , the students entered the classroom excitedly and shared their stories with their classmates. One student     5     that he had given his blankets to the homeless, and another student told them that he helped a dog to find its owner. All students     6     encouraged by the homework. So the students made some stickers（贴纸）which people can stick on their cars, and then sold them,     7     they can donate the money to the homeless. Since then, similar activities have been organized in schools all over the     8    . Some schools encouraged their students to perform     9     acts of kindness, such as helping doing community service or raising money for a charity.

Students learn to consider other people and think about how small actions can also make the world     10     better place.
