When parents send their children to school, often they don’t know what happens day to day. Parents depend on what their children tell them about they are doing and what they are learning. Generally schools will host parent-teacher meeting at least twice a year. Parent-teacher meetings are short meetings between parents and their children’s teacher. Usually they are held when teachers give put a student’s grades for the term. The parent-teacher meetings give teachers a chance to let parents know how their child is doing. A teacher will let a parent know the student’s advantages and bring to the parent’s attention any problems with grades or behavior(行为). The meetings also offer parents the chance to ask questions and see what their child is learning.

Most children do not go along with their parents to the meetings. This allows both the parent and teacher to talk honestly about the child’s progress without making the child feel bad. Usually a teacher will offer advice to the parent on how to support their child’s education.

Many people like to travel by plane because it is fast, but I don’t like it because an airport is usually far from the city.

You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off and it is often late. You can’t open the windows. You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to go out of the airport and into the city.

I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time. I also like cars. You can start your journey when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
