Few parents can hear the words "What can I do to help?" from their kids. Teenagers spend more time on video games, computers and mobile phones, so they help less with housework.

Students at a primary school in Fuzhou, East China's Fujian Province were required to clean the school toilets to help them develop good habits. But some parents are strongly against the idea. They can't see the advantages of students doing such chores. They think that the school should provide students with a proper education, not the chance to be school cleaners.

In fact, parents, schools and society play an equally (同等地) important role in developing the character of students. It is good for schools to give students such tasks, because few of the students will do them at home. Their parents want them to do homework only.

In recent years, some parents will make mountains out of molehills when students are asked to do some chores in schools. Some will complain the teachers if their kids get hurt in schools; some will even challenge the schools' teaching methods and management. As a result, many primary schools, especially those in big cities, do not let students join in outdoor activities during breaks, fearing that they might get hurt. This is bad for the development of students' best qualities.

What the primary school in Fuzhou doing is worth praising. Doing chores can put a sense of responsibility (责任感) into students' minds and teach them the spirit of rules as well as teamwork. Also, it can make students' in-school experiences more meaningful.

In spring 2021, Battersea Arts Centre, a venue（地点）in southwest London, introduced "pay what you can" for all its shows. The reason is simple—they believe that everyone should be able to be a part of the great work, regardless of(不管) their ability to pay. Should all shows be "paid what you can"?

Some supporters believe it's a good idea. In the 17th century when Shakespeare was writing his plays, everyone went to the theatre. The cheapest ticket in London was one penny. This is how shows should be open to everyone, no matter how much they earn. Paying what you can is in the spirit of Shakespeare's time, and it opens the arts to all. It also shows that many art venues are a type of charity(慈善机构) that provide public benefits and spread culture. That doesn't mean the show isn't good. 

However, this idea makes some people worried and some opponents(反对者) are against it. Society expects art for free—free art shows, free music, free videos. ____ For some people "pay what you can" would mean "pay what you want to"—nothing. It is expensive to put on a show. If the audience want to see a good show, they should pay a part of what it costs to put on. A survey by Arts Professional magazine found that many people a-void shows not because they are too expensive but be-cause they don't think they will enjoy themselves. Art venues should focus on making the best shows they can, and price the tickets to reflect the quality(质量).

Doing Housework

Last week, our class made a survey on doing housework among ourselves. 

Webcams(网络摄像头) can be found in our lives. Everyone {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(try) to use a web cam that is suitable for his or her own computer. There are some {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(fact) about the webcam. If you are using a webcam, you must notice the battery of your laptop may run out a little {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (fast) than usual. Therefore, the webcam must {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(use) in a certain way. However, webcams still enjoy popularity in specific groups, such as students. 

Some students can complete any question with {#blank#}5{#/blank#} correct answer. These students can study by {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(they). However, there are some students who cannot learn {#blank#}7{#/blank#} their own. They will understand the lesson better {#blank#}8{#/blank#} they talk and discuss problems with their friends. Then the webcam is {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(help). The video chat through the web cam is important {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(make) these students be able to talk with other people. And it is necessary to teach the students to use the webcam in a proper way. 

Parents often find children watch cartoons for at least three to four hours a day. Studies show that kids start watching cartoons on TV at an early age of six months, and by the time they reach the age of two or three, they become fans of cartoons and they would like to spend much time on them. Is it good for kids to watch cartoons?

Parents often see this as a problem because most of the kids are too crazy about watching cartoons. Parents think if kids spend too much time on cartoons, they won't do well at school. 

Some people think it's good to watch cartoons. They help the working parents the most because parents can do a lot of work when their kids watch cartoons on TV. 

When children watch educational cartoons, they get to learn things. Cartoons also help to improve children's language skills. Educational cartoons help children try different languages. Kids can learn English well with the help of those cartoon programs. At the same time, some kids can learn about the friendship and teamwork from the cartoons. It is good for them to get on well with their friends and classmates. 

So sometimes it is meaningless to stop kids from watching cartoons, but parents should make sure that their kids are watching the right things.
