One morning, Wu Liang discovered that her classroom had changed. She found that the desks were no longer in rows, but pushed together to make eight bigger desks. She was so excited about it for the first two days that she couldn’t listen to the teachers carefully. But soon she and her classmates got used to this new classroom arrangement (安排). “Now our class is quieter,” said Wu. “What’s more, we can come up with our own ideas and learn more through discussion. It’s a better way to study.”

Li Yu liked it, too. “Group members first discuss,” he said, “and then present to the whole class. It makes us believe in ourselves.” This was part of a reform (改革) at Li’s school. The school made this reform because they wanted to offer students easier ways to study and more chances to discuss. “Our school hopes to improve students’ abilities to study by themselves and work in groups.” said Zhang Ming, an English teacher.

However, the reform has demanded more from teachers. Now they have only 15 minutes to give a lesson that would have been taught in 45 minutes before. It is difficult to teach in such a short time. The teachers have to find better ways to teach more effectively.

“The reform demands more, but I’m sure it is helpful.” added Zhang Ming.

Jim lives in a village. He often spends time walking by the river behind his old house. Sometimes he swims in the river. But now his father works in town, so he goes there with his family.

Behind their new house is a park, but the park is very small. So Jim isn’t happy. “Is there a river near here?” He asks his mother on the first morning. His mother says, “No, there isn’t. But there’s a nice park near here, and there’s a pool in it. We can go to play there.” Jim’s very happy on the way to the park.
