Have you ever picked strawberries yourself? The sweet fruit looks nice, but light pressure can make them out shape, so you have to be very {#blank#}1{#/blank#}  (care) when picking them. Nowadays, there {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (be) many young people who are just like strawberries. They {#blank#}3{#/blank#}  (easy) break down when they face difficulties. There is a name for them –strawberry kids.

 Why are many children so easy to break down? Many students are the only child in their family. Their parents do almost everything for  {#blank#}4{#/blank#}   (they) in their daily life. They hardly ever get criticized (被批评) at home and always feel good about themselves. If these students are criticized strictly by teachers, they {#blank#}5{#/blank#}   (feel) upset and begin to doubt their own abilities. Many schools care more about   {#blank#}6{#/blank#}  (student) grades instead of developing their personality. As a result, students get satisfying grades {#blank#}7{#/blank#}  they are not mentally（精神上地）strong enough.

 Young people should learn how ot make themselves mentally strong. An expert said, “Whenever you are in trouble, don't ask for help too quickly. You should try {#blank#}8{#/blank#}  ( deal) with problems first by yourself. Take an active part{#blank#}9{#/blank#}  sports and social activities. That can help you become mentally strong.”

 Growing up is not just a happy process. Pains also go along.  {#blank#}10{#/blank#}   most important thing is to face the pains bravely and learn from them.

    Some parents like to{#blank#}2{#/blank#}birthday parties for their children . If they keep on doing this , their children will think it{#blank#}3{#/blank#} for them to enjoy birthday parties every year . Year after year , maybe they will forget their {#blank#}4{#/blank#}birthdays and only remember their own . It is against traditional habits.
    Many parents don't let the children do {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. They think children have only one thing to do. They should study hard and do{#blank#}6{#/blank#}in their lessons . If parents go on doing like this, the children will only learn to open their mouths to be fed and stretch out (伸出) their arms to be {#blank#}7{#/blank#}every day . When the children grow up , they will be able to do {#blank#}8{#/blank#} and they won't even find a{#blank#}9{#/blank#}.
