Susan and Annie are both from Holland. Here are their emails.
Dear Susan, Thanks for your last email! My knees have been OK since I left hospital last week. But I feel very lonely, especially in the day. You might think many kinds of games can help me while they are boring for me. What should I do? Yours, Annie

Dear Annie, ①Sorry to hear you're lonely! ②I think you need someone to talk with. When you have a walk in the neighbourhood, start a conversation with others in a friendly way. And I remember you like shopping. Do you talk with the cashier(收银员) while checking out? It's common to check out quickly, so people behind us inline won't wait too long. But do you know "chat checkout" programme? It is introduced by Jumbo, our large supermarket chain(连锁超市). In some of its stores, customers can talk with cashiers for as long as they want. There is also a chat corner in the supermarket. People can have a good time talking with each other over a nice cup of coffee. The world continues to move faster and faster. Many people sometimes find themselves feeling lonely. The programme is to play a role in helping people tocombat loneliness. This "chat checkout" service is so popular that Jumbo is planning to introduce it into more supermarkets. As you can see, more people in our country follow a different rule at some supermarkets: Chatting happily is more important than checking out quickly. ③Why not have a try to chat with cashiers when you go shopping next time? Love, Susan |
China introduced the "double reduction (双减)" policy in July, 2022. According to the policy, it should take no more than 90 minutes for junior high school students to finish their homework. Several months have passed since the new term began. Here are the two students' points of view. | |
"Our homework is clearly less than before," said 15-year-old Xie Dong from Shijiazhuang. "We are not encouraged to buy workbooks any more. The exercises are mainly from the textbook." Students have enough time to learn new knowledge now. "Our teachers are also giving us more chances to do experiments and learn from real life," said Xie. Self-discipline (自律) becomes the key. "Some students now spend more time having fun when homework is finished early. But if you use all the free time to relax, you might fall behind other students," he said. "And we have few exams, I don't think it is a good thing." | |
For 15-year-old Zhang Jing from Langfang, the best thing about "double reduction" is the increased time in after-school activities. "We can now spend more time taking part in clubs and activities, such as dancing, volleyball and drama. I have joined a group called "leadership development" where I can learn all kinds of skills beyond schoolwork," said Zhang. There are fewer exams now. But it's not necessarily a good thing. "Exams push me to study harder. Each exam shows my progress as well as my weak points," Zhang said. |
