     President Barack Obama shouldn't be surprised if his approval rating among students has plummeted
(陡然變差). In a recent speech about US education, he called for extending the school day and year. "The
challenges of a new century demand more time in the classroom. Why more time? Because US students
are falling behind students in other countries," he said.
     More school
     US schools need to lengthen school days and the school year. If we intend to stay competitive with
the rest of the world on test scores and in the job market, we need to add classroom hours and get rid of
summer break almost entirely. As President Obama said, South Korean students spend more than a month
longer in school-and achieve better results than us.
     The current two-term school year and the school days that form it were developed based on an old
system of agriculture. The long summer break allowed children to be home to help tend the fields. It is not
necessary anymore. It may not be popular to cut summer break or extend school days, but that's the only
way to improve US education and get back the American jobs lost to foreign countries.
     Home Time
     Adding school hours won't solve the problems with our school system. The USA is different from other
countries. US families have full schedules, with participation in sports, community groups, and other interests.
In places such as South Korea, where only several hours of a day aren't spent on school work, children don't
have time to participate in many of those activities.
     Giving kids time outside of school allows them to grow in other areas. That's just as important as learning
fractions (分?jǐn)?shù)). Fingers shouldn't be pointed at the school year for being too short, but at teachers and
schools that don't challenge their students and just pass kids along to the next grade. We do need to hold
ourselves accountable for an education system falling behind other countries, but we also need a solution that
actually works.

     It's common for kids of all ages to experience school anxiety-schoolrelated stress. This is often most
apparent at the end of summer when school is about to start again, but it can occur yearround. Where does
the stress and anxiety come from?
     Teachers
    
A good experience with a caring teacher can cause a lasting impression on a child's life-so can a bad
experience. While most teachers do their best to provide students with a positive educational experience,
some students are better suited for certain teaching styles and classroom types than others. If there's a
mismatch (不協(xié)調(diào)) between student and teacher, a child can form lasting negative feelings about school or
his own abilities.
     Friends
    
Friends can also be a source of stress. Concerns about not having enough friends, not being in the same class as friends, not being able to keep up with friends in one particular area or another, and interpersonal
conflicts are a few of the very common ways kids can be stressed by their social lives at school. Dealing
with these issues alone can cause anxiety in even the most confident kids.
     Bullies (欺凌弱小者)
     Things have changed in the world of bullies since I was a kid.The good news is that teachers and parents are paying more attention. Many schools now have antibullying programs and policies. Though bullying does still happen, help is generally more easily accessible than before.
     The bad news is that bullying has gone hightech. Many students use the Internet, cell phones and other
media devices to bully other students, and this type of bullying often gets very aggressive. One reason is that bullies can be anonymous (匿名的) and enlist other bullies to make their targets miserable.Another reason is that they don’t have to face their targets. So it’s easier to get rid of any empathy that they may otherwise feel. There are ways to fight against “cyberbullying”, but many parents aren’t aware of them-and
many bullied kids feel too overwhelmed to deal with the situation.

     Frederick M. Hess is the director of education policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute,
which is a nonprofit organization that conducts research on many public issues. He says that a long
summer vacation doesn't make sense in today's world.
     Can American students afford to take a summer vacation? In a summer vacation, millions of kids
spend valuable time sending messages, watching TV, playing video games and doing shopping in the
mall. They will also be putting their academic futures at risk.
     Summer vacation once made sense in the past when you didn't need an education to get a good
job. But now things have changed. For today's students, academic skills are important to students'
future success, but such skills are affected in the summertime. Many nations don't give kids an
Americanstyle summer vacation. They offer no more than seven consecutive( 連續(xù)的)weeks of vacation. Most American school districts offer up to thirteen weeks. To compete in the global marketplace,
Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors.
     Summer vacation also causes challenges for today's families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of
families had a stayathome Mom. Now, twothirds of American children live in households where every
adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more burden than break. Someone must watch
the kids.
     But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement. Researchers
have found that disadvantaged students lose significant ground in the summertime.
     A longer school year does not have to be an invitation to hard boring work. Rather, it should allow
timepressed teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons. Schools would have more time to
devote to athletics, languages, music and the arts. Summer vacation can be a grand thing. But in the 21st
century, it may also be outdated.

      There are a number of advantages when it comes to living alone. However, it also comes with a few safety concerns. You still never know who will be around the corner. Don't become another victim; be sure to follow our tips.
     1. All doors should be kept locked.
     Always keep your doors locked when you are in your apartment or dorm. Make sure the doors are closed behind you when you come into the building and never leave your room unlocked, even when you are in it. There's always a chance that someone might sneak in while you are unaware. Always try to remember to close doors behind you to ensure your safety.
     2. Don't lose your keys.
     Even if you do everything you can to keep the doors locked, criminals might still be able to come into your house with a key. Always know where your keys are to prevent this. Never put them down in a public place or give them to friends. Also, before you bring your car into the repair shop, take off the house keys.
     3. When it comes to safety, standing up for yourself is important.
     If you aren't getting all the security features you want, don't be afraid to ask. If your lighting situation is less than ideal, discuss this with your supervisor or landlord. Talk to the campus security organization if you think a security phone near your dorm is a good idea. Request that the building employ someone to monitor those entering and leaving the building. You should feel safe where you reside (居住于), so stand up for your rights.
     4. Be careful.
     You still might find yourself in a potentially dangerous situation. Check your peephole (窺視孔) before letting anyone in. Whenever you witness something around your building that makes you uncomfortable or suspicious just dial 911. It is a good idea to always walk with a friend instead of alone. Become familiar with people who live in the building, so you can keep track of anyone that is a stranger.

     There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have
generally viewed personal growth as an external(外在的) result or a product that can easily be identified
and measured. The worker who gets a rise, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns
a new language-all these examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.
     By contrast(對(duì)照), the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since it is a
journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way. The process is not the road itself, but
the attitudes, feelings people have, and their caution or courage, as they meet with new experiences and
unexpected difficulties. In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to
experience the world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept.
     In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to face the
unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may "fail" at first. How we see ourselves as we try a
new way of being is necessary for our ability to grow. Do we see ourselves as quick and curious? If so,
we tend to take more chances and be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we think we're shy and
indecisive? Then our sense of fear can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and we think we are slow
to adapt(適應(yīng)) to changes or that we're not smart enough to deal with a new challenge. Then we are
likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.
      These feelings of insecurity(不安全) and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are
to change and grow. If we protect ourselves too much, then we stop growing. We become trapped
inside a shell of our own making.
