Mom and Dad are two of the most important people in your life. Over your lifetime, they may influence you more than anyone else you will meet. So if your mom loves to read, you just might grow up carrying a book wherever you go, just as she does.　But parents do a lot more than just pass on their hobbies. Moms and Dads need to care for their kids the minute their kids are born. Most parents will do this as long as they live.

Here are some ways you can stay close, get along well, and build a strong relationship( 关系)with your parents.

Spend time together. Instead of playing computer games or watching TV, ask your mom and dad to play with you. Go outside together, or do some reading.

Be kind. Little things might mean a lot to your mom or dad. You can brighten a parent’s day with a hug（拥抱）, a card , or a joke. It’s also lovely when a kid cleans up his or her room without being asked. And if you try not to fight with your brothers or sisters, your parents will be so happy!

Do your best at whatever you do. You don’t have to be perfect, but when you do your best, you make your parents proud. It makes them happy to see how you’re turning into a great kid. Why? Because it lets them know they’re doing a good job.

 September 20 was the 15^th National Tooth Protect Day. On that day, more than 10,000 young students gathered in Shenzhen to clean teeth on the streets.

  “It’s exciting to brush teeth on the street. But with so many people, I am a bit shy,” said Zhang Xi, a Junior 2 student at Shenzhen Wenjin Middle School.

  More importantly, she learned how to look after teeth. “ I didn’t know how to take care of my teeth before. Now, I will clean them longer and more carefully.”

  Most teens clean their teeth every day but there are still problems because they often finish cleaning them in just one minute. A new Ministry of Health(卫生部) report shows that about 50 percent of teenagers in China have problems such as decyed teeth(龋齿). Some teenagers have bad eating habits, others don’t know how to clean their teeth.

  Liu Xiaoyuan, a dentist, says there are many ways to protect teeth and he gives some good advice:

  Clean your teeth for three minutes each morning and evening and clean every side of your teeth carefully;

  Do not eat too much sugar of soft drinks;

  Go to the dentist every six months for a clean-up.
