Mobile phone has become a problem for middle schools. Some middle schools in Australia have banned (禁止) students from carrying mobile phones during school hours.
Mobile phone use among children has become a problem for the school this year. Several children have got mobile phones as Christmas gifts, and more students will want them.
Marry Bluett, an official, said mobile phone use is a distraction (分心的事) to students during school hours and it also gives teachers so much trouble in their classrooms. Teachers were also saying that sometimes students might use phone messages to deceive during exams.
She said some schools had tried to ban mobile phones. Some parents felt unhappy because they couldn’t get in touch with their children.
Many teachers said students should not have mobile phones at school, but if there was a good reason, they could leave their phones at school office. They also said there were many reasons why the students should not have mobile phones at school: they were easy to lose and were a distraction from studies.
Many people say that they understand why parents would want their children to have phones, but they think schools should let the students know when they can use their mobile phones.

【推荐1】In recent years, red tourism sites(遗址) have brought in more and more visitors.
The Jinggangshan Mountains are known as the birthplace of the Chinese Red Army. Jinggangshan, located in a remote location near Jianxi’s border with Hunan province, was a perfect base for the СРC and the Red Army in the 1920s, but its geographical condition resulted in local people becoming poor in recent times. Mao Haofu, 28, has returned from studying in Britain to his hometown in Jinggangshan City. “I feel a sense of achievement when I see more foreign officers come to our city. They are willing to know more about our country as China offers Chinese wisdom and a Chinese way to solve problems,” he said. Jinggangshan City has been visited by officers from several foreign countries, including Cuba, Vietnam,Cambodia and Laos.
To better introduce the former residence(住所) of Chairman Mao Zedong, Mao Haofu has studied materials in a local museum and books about Mao Zedong, instead of directly translating the tour guide introduction.
At another red tourism site called Xibaipo in Hebei, Duan Keqian, a tour guide of the Xibaipo Memorial Hall, is busy preparing an English version of her speech. She has seen a growing number of foreign visitors who work near Xibaipo. “We’ve been really busy in the past months, but we are really happy to provide more information for our visitors,” said Duan.
Russian Andrey Lyakh, 45, visited Xibaipo after doing business in Shijiazhuang, the capital of Hebei Province. He listened carefully to his guide and nodded at times, walking in the yard of the residence. “I’ve heard of Mao Zedong since I was a child, and I think he is a great man,” said Andrey.

Now life is better, people eat more meat, fish, eggs and other food with more fat. They often go to the restaurant for good meals with their families and friends. But they get easy to be ill, why?
Now, most of us don’t want to eat breakfast at all. They often eat snacks instead of breakfast. It not only is bad for our health, but also affects our study. So we need to develop good eating habits. For example, we should eat many kinds of food every meal. I think eating habits are very important for everyone, especially the growing students.
I think more meat and fish, less exercise are bad for health. Good rest, less meat, more vegetables and enough exercise are good for health. So I exercise every day. My eating habits are pretty good. I eat a lot of vegetables. I eat fruit and drink milk every day. I drink a cup of water 15 minutes before each meal and eat much vegetables and fruit.

【推荐1】Smartphone apps certainly make our lives easier. However, sometimes they can also cause problems.
Many school teachers in China depend on apps to give homework. The kids have to do their homework looking at a phone screen.
For example, Liu Yanming, a sixth-grade student in Shanghai, usually has to use his mother’s mobile phone to do his homework. The homework is handwritten, photographed and then posted by his teacher to a parent-teacher group on WeChat.
Liu Yong, his father, is afraid that the apps could encourage kids to watch something that has nothing to do with the homework. “He is just 12 years old, and I do not want to buy him a cellphone,” Liu told China Daily. “I also worry that my son’s eyesight will get worse because of staring at the phone for too long.”
However, Bai Yueping, president of Shanghai Tangzhen Middle School, agreed to use apps for homework. “Parents can understand their kids’ learning situation and tell them to finish the homework on time,” Bai told Xinmin Evening News.
Zhang Siqi, a student from Renmin University of China, has a similar opinion to Bai. “It’s convenient to give homework by using WeChat or QQ,” Zhang said. “We’re living in an Internet era (时代). It’s not wise to refuse to take advantage of technology.
Chu Zhaohui, a senior researcher at the National Institute of Education Sciences, believed that it is impossible to ban (禁止) the use of electronic products in the Internet era. However, students should use them when it’s necessary, such as when they do listening exercises, “We don’t want to ban online education models, but they must be used carefully. Modern technologies are good, but they should be used in schools under control,” he told China Daily.

【推荐1】There is a new rule (规定) for students. They need to run 1,500 meters each day. How do they like the new rule? Are you ready to run?
Wang Tao: I’m 12 years old. I’m from Beijing. As Grade 8 students, we usually run 50 meters, 200 meters or 400 meters in P.E. class, but never 1,500 meters. But I am OK with it. I can run 1,000 meters in 3 minutes.
