"Dear Grandpa Guo, we are losing our childhoods! Please help us!"
Guo Chuanjie, a famous scientist, received a letter from a Beijing primary school student. The student said that many Chinese kids have to take extra classes on weekends in order to enter key middle schools. The kid hoped more people would hear his voice with Guo's help.
Guo is a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC,中国人民政治协商会议). Last month the CPPCC members met in Beijing. They are from all walks of life - scientists, businesspeople, doctors, artists and athletes. They give proposals (提案) on the country's important issues(问题) to make our country better. For the Beijing student's letter, Guo read it in front of Yuan Guiren, China's Minister of Education (教育部部长), during a CPPCC meeting.
According to Xinhua, there were 5,762 proposals in all. Many of the proposals were about problems like housing prices, heavy traffic and food safety, which were related to people's daily lives. Some proposals were about teenagers. For example, singer Han Hong suggested that the government should deal with people who traffic(拐卖) children.
As usual, proposals will be given to relative departments (相关部门) after the meetings. For example, Guo's proposal was handed to the Ministry of Education. The departments will consider the proposals carefully and see if they can be carried out in the future.

Sophia is very happy these days. The 13-year-old girl from the UK has a lot of fun during her trip in Beijing. She eats dumplings, tries Chinese calligraphy(书法), climbs the Great Wall and speaks Chinese, all for the first time!
She even stays with a Chinese family for a week. "Beijing is very big and beautiful. And the people here are very nice!" She says. Sophia comes with her teachers and classmates from the UK. The students in Shangdi Experimental Primary School of Haidian District receive them. These two schools are "Heart to Heart" schools. There are 200 "Heart to Heart" schools in Beijing. Each of them has a partner school in a foreign country. They meet and get to know each other.

An Englishman was showing a foreign visitor around London. “What's that strange building?” asked the visitor. “That's the Tower of London.” “I see. How long did it take to build it?” “About 500 years.” “In my country we can build it in five months,” Shortly after that they came to St. Paul's Cathedral(大教堂). “Very interesting!” said the visitor. “How long did it take to build it ?” “Near forty years.” said the Englishman. “In my country we can finish it in forty days at most,” said the visitor. This went on all day.
They visited most of the best known buildings in the city. Every time they saw a new one, the visitor asked what it was and how long it took to build it. Then he said that they could do the same thing much faster in his country.
At last the Englishman got angry with the visitor though he tried not to show it. Several days later they came to the House of Parliament(议会)and the visitor asked his usual question, “What is that?” The Englishman answered, “ I have no idea. It wasn't there last night.”

Millie is a little girl who is at the age of nine. She is a pupil in a primary school. She works hard at her subjects. In class, she takes an active part in all kinds of activities. She looks smarter than her classmates.

One day, she was doing her homework after supper as usual. Her father was not in. Her mother was taking a shower in the bathroom. After she finished her homework, Millie asked her mother to check it for her, but her mother didn't answer her. A few minutes later, her mother was still in the bathroom. Millie felt strange. She knocked at the door. But her mother had no answer. She pushed the door open and found her mother lying on the floor. At the same time, she smelled something terrible. It was the gas. She quickly opened the window, turned off the gas and called 120 and 110 for help. Soon some doctors and policemen came and sent her mother to the nearest hospital. Her mother was saved at last.

Why did the little girl know how to do that? That was because she had learned how to save herself and others in danger in school.

   Bruno was a boy of eight. His father worked in a cinema and his mother worked in a shop. He lived not far from his school. He always walked there and walked home. On his way to school, he had to pass a playground. It was very wet after it rained. One day, when he got home, his clothes were all wet. His mother became angry and said: “Don't play in the water on your way home from school!”
   On the next day Bruno came back with wet and dirty（脏的）clothes. His mother became even angrier. “I'll tell your father if you come back wet again.” said his mother, “He'll punish you, you know.”
   The third day the little boy was dry when he came home.
   “You're a good boy today,” his mother said happily,” you didn't play in the water.”
   “No.” the boy said unhappily. “There were too many older boys in the water when I got there this afternoon.”
