At 6:30 in early morning, Chen Liang drives his new yellow school bus through villages, taking children to his kindergartens (幼兒園).
Chen and his wife Pang Qiuxiang ran two kindergartens in Shanqian Village and Lanxi Village in Qingdao. Pang works as the head of two kindergartens, and Chen takes many responsibilities (責(zé)任), from driving to fixing desks and chairs and buying food. Everything seems common in the kindergartens. But one thing makes the kindergartens unique and well-known to the locals. They are free.
In 2006, when the couple took over the kinder-garten from Chen’s mother, it was not free. At that time, Pang took on the main tasks because Chen was busy operating his hotel on the seaside.
But a small pitiful (令人同情的) action of one child touched Pang deeply. “The parents could choose to pay if they would like their children to have dessert. Some parents could not afford to pay the extra fees so their children couldn’t enjoy dessert. Once I saw a child pick up an empty biscuit package which was left by another child, and eat the crumbs (食品屑) in it. I was astonished by the scene,” Pang said. Later, after a serious discussion, the couple made a decision to begin a tuition-free kindergarten.
So they began the tuition-free kindergarten on October 1, 2010.

【小題1】 What makes the kindergartens special?

A new school term begins, Is anything new at your school? Sichuan students are getting an extra (額外的)hour to sleep in the morning.
This year, Sichuan schools decided that students should start classes later. This should help them feel less tired, For Junior high schools, the first classes will begin no earlier than 8:30 am.
The changes have made students happy.
Liu Xian, 15, said his class was excited by the news on the first day of school. “It’s so good we can get up later!” said Liu.
Liu studies in Chengdu No.4 Middle School. He used to get up at 6:40 am. Now he can get up at 7:40 am because class doesn’t start until 8:40 am.
Wu Hongli, 15, said the new timetable is good for her health. “I used to drink coffee every night or I would feel to sleepy to finish my homework, ”said Wu. “Now I can finish it without coffee.”She used to get up at 6:30 am. Now she can get up at 7:30 am.
Wu Hongli’s mother was happy, too. She thought more sleep would help her daughter grow taller.
But some parents worried that more sleep would mean less learning. There used to be five classes in the morning. Now there are only four.
Many teachers, though, say the changes will help students learn better.
“Students used to doze(瞌睡)for the first two classes in the morning,”said Wu Zongping, an English teacher at Chendu No.12 Middle School. “But now they look fine and they learn much better than before.”
