  One student took a box of chicken to class.Another carried on a cell-phone   1   ,and still another whistled loudly every time the   2   turned his back.

Reform school?No.College.

  More and more professors say,they are coming across   3   students in their classrooms. Many of today's young scholars(学者)arrive late,leave   4   ,talk loud or take care of personal   5   such as paying bills during class.

  Why are the students behaving badly?

  “Because they can,”said a student of University of North Texas.“A lot of the time,the professors let them get   6   with it.”

  Some educators say it is time to bring politeness back to their classrooms — and even   7   taking some of the blame for bad behavior.They say that rude students are by no means the majority but that one of them can ruin an entire   8

  Dr.Amanda believes that society in   13   has become more tolerant(容忍的)of rude behavior and   14   people in power,including professors,no longer   15   standards for   16   .That leads to a growing imprudence(轻率行为)   17   some college students.“There's a great   18   of bad behavior in the world around them,and young people see it and   19   disrespect,”said Dr.Amanda,   20   that sometimes students“have no idea that they are being rude.”

  As nanny(保姆),cook, cleaner, shopper, driver, and gardener, she has one of the most demanding jobs in Britain today.And paying someone else to do the chores(家务活)which take the average housewife 71 hours a week would cost ?349.

  At over ?18,000 a year that’s more than the earnings of 70 percent of the population, including train drivers, firemen, prison officers, and social worker.Looking after a baby less than a year old takes a housewife into a even higher pay league.According to a stud, she earns ?457 a week-at nearly ?24,000 a year, the same as teachers, engineers, and chemists.

  Researchers put a price on each chore, then tried to find out how long the average person takes doing them.They found housewives spend an average 70.7 hours a week on housework-with looking after the children(17.9 hours)and cooking and cleaning(12.9 hours each)the most time-consuming(费时).

  A wife with a part-time job still works and average of 59 hours a week at home.Those in full-time employment put in longer hours at home than in the workplace.The good news is that these hours sharply as children get older.While the average mother with child under one puts in 90 hours weekly, the figure drops to 80 hours from one to four and to 66 hours from five to ten.

  Mother-of-four Karen Williams from London said, “Paying the housewives may not be practical, but the government should recognize the value of housework, perhaps through the tax.Running a house takes a lot of time and most husbands don’t understand this.For example, my husband only puts a shelf up now and again.He never cleans the kitchen-that’s the real test.”
