19．When I left for the United States to study，I had butterflies in my stomach．I was nervous because I was going to （61）a new place with new people and new customs．I couldn't even understand （62）their （they） language．Everything was different （63）from my own country．There was nobody that I could talk to．I just had my husband，（64）who was a new person for me，too．
It was a sad moment when I had to say goodbye to my family and friends．I didn't want （65）to leave （leave） my hometown because I grew up there and had wonderful （66）memories
（memory） of the place．So，（67）thinking （think） about all these changes made me nervous and I was （68）worried （worry） about my new life．But studying abroad was a （69）decision （decide） that I made myself．I had to continue and accept the challenge．I looked forward to （70）visiting （visit） my family in the summer vacation．
20．In the next five years，STEM （science，technology，engineering and mathematics） jobs are projected to grow twice as quickly as jobs in all other fields according to the U．S．Bureau of Statistics．While all jobs are expected to grow by 10.4percent，STEM jobs are expected to increase by 21.4percent．
By this measure，future STEM jobs represent a huge opportunity to today's students．But，in fact，of the 3.8million ninth graders in the U．S．，only 233，000end up choosing a STEM degree in college，according to the National Center for Education Statistics．This means only 6percent of ninth graders will become STEM graduates．And of these graduates，women will be even more underrepresented in most STEM fields．
These are alarming statistics．How do we get more young boys and girls to be interested in STEM-related fields？It isn't an easy task．Schools do not always adequately prepare students for these severe subjects，and college programs are designed to get rid of those who are less persistent．Nationally，only 41 percent of initial STEM majors who begin a degree in STEM-related fields complete their degree in less than six years．
In addition，social pressures continue to cast a shadow over girls who might otherwise consider the STEM fields．A couple of years ago，I met amazing parents，both of whom had a background in engineering and hoped their 10-year-old daughter would follow in their footsteps．They encouraged her to take an after-school science/robotics program．When she got there，she found she was outnumbered 6：1by boys in the class．As the only girl，she came home crying much of the time because she was teased and told that geeky girls are not welcome in the boys'club．Ironically，by the time young boys are entering college programs in STEM fields，many complain about the lack of girls．
Starting at an early age，even as young as kindergarten，we need to encourage and help the next generation leaders to consider taking up science，computing，math and technology．We also need to realize that for young girls to be inspired to take and stick with this educational path and later career field，they will benefit from the support of the people that surround them：parents，teachers，friends and family members．

17．When it comes to President Obama，most of his personal business is already known by the public．Personal information about his children，Malia and Sasha，however，has been kept a little more under wraps．
The New York Times recently released a list of rules that Michelle Obama has mentioned over the years that Malia and Sasha must follow during their time in the White House，as well as in general．See how the first family educates their children：
The girls must write reports about what they've seen on their trips，even if it's not required by their school．
Malia may use her cell phone only on the weekends，and she and her sister cannot watch television or use a computer for anything but homework during the week．
Malia and Sasha have to play two sports：one they choose and one selected by their mother．
Malia must learn to do laundry（洗衣服） before she leaves for college．
The girls have to eat their vegetables，and if they say they are not hungry，they cannot ask for cookies or chips later．
While these might be shocking to some，Michelle said，"They're not little princess．It's just basic rules，boundaries，and expectations that we would have normally．"
Michelle also mentions another set of rules：
The girls must do their chores（家务），though the White House has a large staff．Malia and Sasha have chores of their own．
They must play a team sport，because it's about learning how to play on a team，how to lose and how to win gracefully．
…
It sounds like Michelle and Barack want the best for their kids and to make them as well-rounded as possible．What are your thoughts on the Obama family rules？
