Lots of kids hate school, a new study found. Usually this kind of feeling doesn’t last long. But what happens if you feel this way too much? School is a fact of life and getting a good education can help you build the kind of future life you want. So let’s talk about school and what to do when you don’t like it.

If you don’t like school, the first step is to find out why. You might not like school because you don’t have enough friends, or maybe you don’t get along with your teachers. Sometimes it’s a big problem with your schoolwork. You may be getting farther and farther behind, and it may seem like you’ll never catch up.

When you know why you don’t like school, you can start taking steps to make things better. It’s a good idea to talk to someone about your problems with school. Your mum, dad, teacher or school counselor (学业指导) will be able to help you. Another good idea is to write down your feelings about school in a notebook. It’s a great way to let out emotions (情绪). Remember, you don’t have to show what you’ve written to others.

On May 23, Shenzhen introduced tough new rules in order to discourage the “Chinese style of crossing the road”.  “Chinese people cross roads without thinking about traffic lights, so long as they are part of a crowd”, said a post on Sina Weibo. A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people jumped red lights when crossing a road in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.

Many people say that they jaywalk(乱穿马路) because the re light lasts too long. Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tonji University. The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings for three years. They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience. “People are likely to ignore(忽视) the light when the waiting time is longer than they can bear,” said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.

However, a survey on Sina Weibo suggested that people jaywalk mainly because they disregard(忽视) rules. “I always obey traffic rules. Time is important but safety should come first,” someone wrote on his Weibo. Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore, the maximum can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too. For example, the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang. But calling on people to respect rules is more important. To completely solve the problem everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules.

56．, too’, and leave the rest to your interpreter (口译员).”

When his plane landed at the
57．, George was little nervous, he said to the smiling Obama, “Who are you?” This was quite unexpected to the president and surprised him greatly. But he quickly calmed（冷静）down. Still
