    Mobile phone has become a problem for middle schools. Some middle schools in Australia have banned students from carrying mobile phones during school hours.

    Mobile phone use among children has become a problem for the school this year. Several children have got mobile phones as Christmas gifts, and more students will want them.

    Mary Bluett, an official, said mobile phone's use is a distraction to students during school hours and it also gives teachers so much trouble in their classrooms. Teachers were also saying that sometimes students might use phone messages to cheat during exams.

    She said some schools had tried to ban mobile phones. Some parents felt unhappy because they couldn't get in touch with their children.

    Many teachers said students should not have mobile phones at school, but if there was a good reason, they could leave their phones at school office. They also said there were many reasons why the students should not have mobile phones at school: they were easy to lose and were a distraction（分散注意力） from studies.

    Many people say that they understand why parents would want their children to have phones, but they think schools should let the students know when they can use their mobile phones.

    As a student, I was most afraid to answer question in class, and I found that the students around me were just like me. At the beginning of each class, when the teacher ask a question. I always lowered my head because I was afraid the teacher saw me.

    One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so ask us some question, but no one answered," Let me tell you a story first," he said. "When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a cardboard folded in half, wrote their names in bold(黑体) with the most eye－catching(引人注目的) color and then placed the cardboard on the seat. So when the speaker need the answer from the student, he could see it and call a listener's name directly. I couldn't understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people, who meant chances. In fact, l really saw a few students got great chances because of that."

    After listening the story, l understand that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance on the card.

    Rice, meat, vegetables and fruit… there are many different food choices for us to eat every day. You may think that throwing away your leftover food is not a big deal. But you should keep in mind that many people around the world still don't have enough to eat.

    In 2015, there were over 1 billion hungry people in the world, according to the United Nations. Many children went to sleep hungry and 15 million of them even died from hunger.

    However, food waste is still a big problem. The average person throws away 50 kg of food every year. This means that 1.3 billion tons of food goes to waste each year. That is more than one third of all the food we make.

    We could give this leftover food to many people. For example, the amount of food wasted in Europe would be enough for 200 million people!

    So next time you feel picky (挑剔) about what you want to eat or can't finish your meal, you might want to think twice. There are many others who aren't so lucky.
