Xiao Qiang,a 12-year-old Chinese boy,has too many activities.His father 1 him away from school four afternoons a week and drives him across the town to practice.“I do most of my 2 in the car when we are 3 to practice,and I have to do the rest when I get home.I am too tired.I just want to sleep,”he said.
“More and more kids become unhappy 4 they have too many activities to do,”said Mr Wang,an expert(专家)of child development.“41% of the children aged 9~13 said they felt 5 most of the time,and more than 75% of them said that they wished they had more 6 to play.”
“Over-scheduling(过量的课程安排)is a growing problem for Chinese families,”said Mr Wang.It is not good for both kids and their parents.More families eat dinner 7 or often eat fast food 8 their way to football practice or music lessons.We all know it is important for kids to learn how to relax.If they don't learn that now,it will be more difficult to learn when they get 9 .Kids need time to relax.Parents should 10 about what is right for kids.
Vanilla is my best friend.She is a lovely girl with two big,beautiful eyes.But she always hides them 1 a pair of black glasses.
One day,however,I 2 ended our friendship.I remember that day clearly.We were 3 in the classroom.The teacher was giving us our results of a Chinese exam.I had done badly.I felt so 4 that I wouldn't talk to anyone.At lunchtime,I even stayed in the classroom alone.Suddenly,I heard a 5 .It was Vanilla.“You look very unhappy,” she said.“What's wrong?” I looked at her for a while,but said 6 .I knew Vanilla had got a good mark(分数) in the exam.I thought she was 7 me.I sat silently,but Vanilla didn't go away,she 8 asking me questions:“Is it because of the exam? Do you want me to tell you the right 9 ?” I looked away from her.When I looked up again,Vanilla had gone.And so had my exam paper! I didn't know 10 to do.I looked for my paper everywhere,but couldn't find it.
In the afternoon,Vanilla came up to my desk and 11 me my exam paper back.I looked at it and got a big 12 .Vanilla had written the right answers next to every one of my mistakes.How 13 she was! My face turned red.I wanted to hug her,but I only held her hands and said,“Thank you.” That afternoon, 14 Vanilla and I were on the way home,I felt quite happy and thanked her again.We are 15 best friends.
