Where did you go this summer vacation? Perhaps you have visited some top universities. If so, you are not alone.
This summer vacation, thousands of people from across the country traveled to famous universities like Tsinghua University, Peking University and Fudan University. For example, about 6,000 visitors visited Tsinghua University every day on vacation. Most of them were junior high school students and senior high school students with their parents. With more and more people coming to these universities, it usually took many hours to enter them.
"Tsinghua University opens to the visitors at 8:30 am." a guard (保安) told China Daily. "However, many people start to wait in line at3 to 4 am. If people come at 6 o'clock, it may be too late and they can only enter in the afternoon.
"University tourism" is popular because of the long histories and special cultures of these famous universities. Also, many parents hope their children can learn something more from the trip and study harder after that.
"I brought my son here as soon as I finished my job," Mrs. Zhang, a mother of a 14-year-old boy, told China Daily. "And I hope my son will go into a top university in the future."

A good book can help you learn more things than you can learn in class. If you want to get into a good reading habit, here are a few ways.
Plan your time
You should give yourself at least thirty minutes for reading every day. When time is set, nothing can change it.
Always carry a book
Wherever you go, take a book with you. When you leave the house, make sure that you always carry a good book as well as your school things.
Find a quiet place
Find a place in your home where you can read a book quietly and no one will trouble you. There should be no television, computer, music or even noisy family members around you.

Lots of kids like to play computer and mobile games these days. Is this good or bad for us? How do we deal with this issue?
In my opinion, playing games responsibly(负责任地)can help us relax. As the old saying goes," All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. "For example, when I finish five days of studying, I feel tired. That's when I like to play a game called King of Glory with my classmates. We all have lots of fun playing and talking about it. When we win, we feel happy. And when we lose, we still want to play more. I think that's why so many students in our school like to play this game. It can not only help us relax, but also strengthen our friendship.
In addition, playing games can exercise our brains and help us think more quickly. When we start to play a new game, we're not very good at it. But we can get better through practice. This process exercises our brains and makes them more active. However, you should make sure that you have finished all of your homework before you play games.
Still, some students seem like they are addicted(上瘾的)to games. They can't control themselves and will play games for five hours a day. That is not good. It's bad for not only their eyes, but also their health. They will feel tired in class the next day, which will affect(影响) their studies. That's not very responsible.
Therefore, I can only say that we should try to be self-disciplined(自律的)and responsible when working out how much time we should spend playing video games.
