Do more at school. Good students love animal and care for other people. April is Bird-Loving Month in China. Is your school doing anything to celebrate it? You should join!     3

Protect yourself. Has someone ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don't let it happen to you. If you have to go home late, you should let your parents know.

Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet aren’t for kids, so try to look at web pages that are good for you.     5

“Jason, honey? Can you answer the door?”
"I am busy, mom!" Jason shouted back at his mother. He had spent three hours so far working to his point in the game. He couldn’t stop now.
Ding-Dong! Jason’s mother came to the front door.
"Jason, it’s your friend, Todd,” Mum called out. Todd, his best friend, stepped into the room. "Jason! I need a friend for playing basketball." He sounded excited.
Jason said angrily, “No way, Todd.

One day, a father and his son went to a kite flying festival. When they arrived, there were already many adults and their children playing in the park. When the son saw the sky filled with colorful kites in different shapes, he was excited and wanted to get one too. His father agreed to buy one for him, so they went to a kite shop and chose a beautiful one.

With the string in hand, the son started flying the kite. Soon, the kite was high up in the sky. After a while, he said, “Daddy, it seems that the string is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we cut it, it will be free and fly even higher. Can we cut it?” The father didn’t reply, but just cut the string off the reel. Suddenly, the kite began to go higher, which made the son much happier.

________ They waited for quite some time. Slowly, it fell onto the grass. The son felt upset and asked, “I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher. Why did it fall down?”

The father smiled and said, “The role of the string was not stopping the kite from flying higher, but helping it stay in the sky, because the kite can’t fly up by itself. By using the string, you help the kite go up in the right direction. When we cut the string, it could not support the kite. ”
