Students these days often have a lot of worries. Sometimes they have problems with their schoolwork, and sometimes with their friends.____Some people think the worst thing is to do nothing. Laura Mills, a teenager from Washington, agrees. “Problems and worries are normal in life,” says Laura. “But I think talking to someone helps a lot. If we don’t talk to someone, we’ll certainly feel worse.”

Laura once lost her purse, and worried for days. She was afraid to tell her parents about it. She even walked three miles to school each day because she didn’t have any money. She just kept thinking. “If I tell my parents, they’ll be angry!” But in the end, she talked to her parents and they were really understanding. Her dad said he sometimes made careless mistakes himself. They got her a new purse and asked her to be more careful. “I will always remember to share my problems in the future!” Laura says.

Robert Hunt advises students about common problems. He feels the same way as Laura. “It is best not to avoid our problems. We should always try to solve (解决) them.” He thinks that you can first find someone to talk to. This person doesn’t need to be an expert (专家) like himself. Students often forget that their parents have more experience than them, and are always there to help them.

In English, we say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half. So you’re halfway to solving a problem if you talk to someone about it!

Middle children are more likely to grow up to become successful adults, a study has claimed.

Far from being cold or shy, researchers found that a middle child’s place in the family helps them develop communication skills.

Psychologist Catherine Salmon believed that middle children are more likely to “become leaders of change in business, politics and science” ---- a conclusion that middle children such as Madonna and Bill Gates would probably support. And they are also more likely to have the drive to succeed in the workplace.

Professor Salmon, who wrote The Secret of Middle Children, said, “As children, middles have to wait a lot. Modern middles wait while their younger sister or brother is placed into the car seat. They wait the firstborn performs in the concert. They wait to be served at the dinner table and praised for their hard work in school. Middles are used to not getting what they want right away. They learn to wait, and this helps them later in life. ”

________, Professor Salmon also found that middle children repot feeling more distant from their parents and are more likely to be easily influenced by their friends. She added, “Middles get less time, attention and resources from the parents, and they often feel painful. But this seems to be short-lived. There is no doubt that this lack of attention can lead to the development of some extremely useful skills.”

It is reported that some developed countries have shipped(运往)broken parts of computers to China. Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000 kilograms of broken computers,TVs and phones sent from Japan.

Things like these are called electronic waste,or e?waste. Dealing with them is not an easy job. Every time an old computer breaks down,it needs to be dealt with safely. What is worse,at present,broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds of years before they are really gone in the earth.

Many places in China are polluted by e?waste. Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them. This town is named as “the e?waste capital of the world”. It has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of e?waste each year,from which it makes 75 million yuan. But it comes at a cost.

Many of the poisons in e?waste find their way into the environment. An environmental group has found the air,the earth and the rivers in Guiyu badly polluted.

Luckily,the Chinese government wants to change the situation. This year,China passed a new environmental protection law. Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers. Hopefully,the problem with e?waste will be solved in the near future.

What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves?Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping. But none of them is worried about the road ahead.

Well, all of these could be the future of driving. There are several companies, for example, Google, working on driverless cars. So far, no Google self?driven car has got a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accident when other cars hit them.

These cars are now still in the testing stages. If the tests are successful, these electric, self?driven cars could be available very soon. But how is it possible for a car to drive itself?Cars already have many features allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice other cars close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions.

Scientists believe that with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, it is possible to create a safe self?driven car very soon.

The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self?driven car may be able to stop this. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example, doesn't believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies can also be mistakes.
