We’ll finally grow up someday, leaving our parents and facing the challenges (挑战) in life. Parents may not be able to solve every problem for us.

According to a study of nearly 3,000 students that was done by Evening News, only 22 percent of primary and middle school students help with everyday housework.
Schools and families play an important role in teaching students about the value of working hard, the guideline says. Primary and middle schools should provide students with hardworking spirit classes every week, according to the guideline. Schools can also hold activities to give students real-world work experience. For example, schools can teach children how to plant trees on Tree-Planting Day.
As children’s first teachers, parents should also encourage children to learn how to do housework. Students should master one or two life skills every year. These skills can include cooking, washing their own clothes and tidying their rooms.

She started with six students, in different grades. She taught math and English, as well as music, art and PE. She tried to understand the needs of each student.

Now, the students have made great progress in English listening, speaking, reading and writing.

【推荐3】During the cold winter, we usually catch a cold(感冒), have a fever(高烧) or a cough(咳嗽). There are some common and great ways that you can follow to keep yourself away from these problems.
Never leave your house without warm clothes. It might be sunny in the morning or daytime but it is getting colder as the sun sets. So make sure you have a sweater or a coat for the colder night.
Don’t walk without shoes in your house. We have a habit of staying bare feet at home. The cold passes from feet to head in no time and that is why we need to wear shoes to stay away from the cold.
Drinking ginger(姜) tea helps your body get warm during the colder days. Drinking green tea keeps your body healthy and solves many health problems. Green tea is even good for those who want to get thinner.
Still if you catch a cold, do not let the cold build up in your body. It’s better to take quick action against the cold through proper exercise(运动).
