10.Middle school students have far too much homework.They usually have to sit up three or four hours every night doing their homework.Now one school in my hometown has made a rule of limiting(限制)homework.The homework is limited to an hour a day and the students have no homework on the weekend.I think this is an excellent idea that will allow students to live better and healthier lives.
Less homework will give students more time to enjoy other pastimes(休闲活动).I have many books which I received as gifts from my parents and friends.They have been kept there on my shelf for several years!Because of homework,I will have not read a single one of them.With less homework,students will be freer to develop their interests in art,music and other hobbies.
More time free from homework will get our physical health better.Many students like sports,but they have little time to play football,basketball,volleyball and so on.
They hardly have time to have a trip or take part in any social activities.They must spend so much time solving math problems and doing grammar exercises.Besides,staying up late to finish their homework leaves many students exhausted in the morning.Not getting enough sleep is not only unpleasant; it also makes students more likely(有可能得)to get colds and other illnesses.

9.Ask any student which subject he or she hates most.9 out of 10 students will answer"math".No matter which country you visit,no matter which grade you are in,you may not learn art,geography,chemistry or Chinese,but you always learn math.Why is this so?How come so many students hate math,and yet cannot avoid learning it in school?
Jenny Sanders,a high school student in California,asks,"What good do we get from learning math?We can use computers to compute numbers,and we can use computers to store information.I think learning math at school is a waste of time."
However,there is much more to math than just learning to add and subtract (减) numbers.In fact,math is not so much about calculation (计算) as it is about learning to think logically (逻辑地) and solving problems.Of course,Jenny was right that we can use computers to do calculations,but how would we even know how to use the computer if we can't think logically?In short,computers are only tools when solving problems.
For example,imagine you are a cook and must serve dinner to 100 guests.How should you divide your resources so that you can get the job done most efficiently (高效地)?In situations like this,the ability to think logically will get you to a reasonable answer and solve your problem.

4.Here's an interview to a pilot about his life.
(R=Reporter; P=Pilot)
R:How much time do pilots actually spend flying a plane?
P:It varies (WES'J) from about 20minutes on some domestic (区别) flights to as much as 18hours on international flights.It all depends on if the flight is a short-or long-haul flight.
R:Do pilots take breaks during flights or do they fly the whole time?
P:Yes,we take breaks during long-haul flights.Airlines assign (指派) three or four pilots to long flights.We take turns flying the plane.

P:Yes,we eat business class food!Airplane food changes every season and is very delicious if you don't hate eating lobster (j£4T) every day!The pilots on the same plane are supposed to make different meal choices so that if one of the dishes causes food poisoning,only one of them will be sick.That way,at least one pilot will always be well enough to fly the plane!

BBC World Have Your Say:"Life in China"
Every day,BBC News on TV,radio and online brings you stories from across the world.But what we want to hear are the stories that matter to you.
Have got a story about life in China today?If you do,please put your stories here.
I like travaling and I have traveled a lot around China.During the trip,I often find that a number of Chinese don't have good pulic manners(举止).They always loudly on the phone and smoke everywhere.The worst is that they often break the rules in public.For example,when I travled in HongKong in January this year,I saw a kid eating noodles on the underground,which is against the rules.However,the kid's mother didn't think he did wrong.Can you believe it?Let's improve our public manners.(Mike,Shenzhen)
     I am a 14-year-old boy from a poor village in Fuyang,Anhui Province.Like many other left-behind children(留守儿童)in China,l live with my grandparents now.my father went to work inn Shanghai several years ago.Last year,my mother went there to care for him because his health is not as good as before.They tell me to listen to my grandparents and call me about twice a month to ask about my study.I really miss my parents ans I hope I can afford to go to school in Shanghai.I think every child needs parents'love and care.(Wu Peigen,Anhui Province)
