Little Peter is a boy of nine. He began to go to school the year before last and now he’s in Grade Three. He lives not far from the school, but he’s often late for school. He likes watching TV in the evening and goes to bed late, so he can’t get up early in the morning.

This term Mrs. Black, Peter’s aunt, works in Peter’s school. She teaches Grade Three English. She is strict(严格)with Peter and often tells the boy to obey the school rules(遵守校规)and come to school on time. Yesterday morning Peter got up late. When he got to school, it was a quarter past eight. His aunt was waiting for him at the school gate.

“You’re ten minutes late for the first class, Peter,” Mrs. Black said angrily. “Why are you often late for class?”

“Every time when I get to the street corner, I see a guidepost. It says ‘SCHOOL GO SLOW’!”

Young people and older people do not always agree. They sometimes have different ideas about living, working and playing. But in one special program in New York State, adults and teenagers live together in a friendly way.
Each summer 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for eight weeks as members of a special work group. Everyone works several hours each day. They do so not just to keep busy but to find meaning and fun in work. Some teenagers work in the forests or on the farms near the village. Some learn to make things like tables and chairs and to build houses. The adults teach them these skills.
There are several free hours each day. Weekends are free, too .During the free hours some of the teenagers learn photo-taking or drawing. Others sit around and talk or sing. Each teenager chooses his own way to pass his free time.
When people live together, they should have rules. In this program the teenagers and the adults make the rules together. If someone breaks a rule, the problem goes before the whole group. They talk about it and ask, “Why did it happen? What should we do about it?”
One of the teenagers has said something about it: “You have to stop thinking only about yourself. You learn how to think about the group.”

   A Chinese couple forced their 4- year- old son to run naked (裸体的)during a snowstorm with the temperature dipping to -13℃ in New York, where they were enjoying a holiday.
