Money Management
When you start receiving money of your own, it's time to start understanding your relationship with money. In a world where you can buy any and every object, the key is to save money by buying only essentials（必需品）and a treat sometimes.

Accepting Rejection（拒绝）
Though you must be careful not to break your word, others' promises aren't always kept. You may feel angry or sad when others refuse you. Learn about it early, and you won't be hurt easily. Remember that them are more fish in the sea.
Lifelong Learning
No matter how old you get, there will always be things beyond your understanding. It's better to learn to be modest now rather than take a proud fall later in life. Be open to new experiences and keep learning. And it's never too late to start.

【推荐3】Primary and junior high school students now are allowed to stay at school for two hours after school is over. Students can enjoy their hobbies. They can also take part in other after-school activities.
This is one of the key measures (措施) of the Double Reduction Policy across the country.
The policy tries to reduce (减少) students’ stress caused by too much homework.
When students leave school, they can see their parents, instead of their grandparents, waiting outside to pick them up. Students are happy about it, and so are their parents. “It’s good that I can come to pick up my son,” said Mrs. Wang, a mother of a second grader. “I’ve bought extra exercise books for him to do because I need to know how well my son has learned.”
The changes also mean that students have more choices. Zhang Zirui, a 12-year-old boy said, “I have a reading course after classes.” Lan Lan, a student at a junior high school, has less homework now. “The teacher has cut out the repetitive (重复的) contents in the homework, which I welcome a lot,” she said, “and there are lots of after-school activities for us to take part in.”

Everyone needs friends. There is an old saying, “Friends are God’s way of taking care of us.” But how do you find real friendship (友谊) and keep it?
First, you should find a friend. What makes a good friend? It is not because a person has money or good looks. A good friend should be kind and patient (耐心的). For example, if you have a bad day, a good friend should listen to you and do his or her best to help you. To make a friend, you can’t be too shy. You should make each other happy and share your life.
But things can’t always be happy. Even the best friends have fights. What should you do when you have a fight with your friend? You have to talk to him or her. When no one is around, talk to him or her honestly (诚实地). If he or she doesn’t want to talk, you can write a letter.
There are some steps to be friends again. Tell him or her how you are feeling; say what your friend did wrong and explain (解释) why you did this or that; remember that friendship is the most important thing in your life.
