British children are complaining about back pain because their schoolbags are becoming bigger and heavier. According to a recent survey made by the charity BackCare, 80% of British children carry too much weight in their bags, and in the most harmfulway, on one shoulder. Some 12-and-13-year-olds are carrying up to 60% of their body weight on days when they have sports or musical instruments (乐器)to have to carry to school. The survey suggests that by 14 about half of pupils would be suffering from back pain.
Back Care recommends that they should carry no more than a fifth of their body weight, and warns that those carrying a third or more run a risk of harm. If the child is small, the problem will be big.
“There is little hope in us trying to protect adults'backs if our children are not protected,” says one of the men from BackCare.

Everyone has feelings. They will feel stressed, worried, frightened sometimes. The following ways will be of great value to you. Try them, please.
1. Get support.
When you need help, reach out to the people who care about you. Talk to someone, such as a parent, other relative, a teacher. And don’t forget your friends. They might be worried about the
same test or have had similar problem.
2. Keep calm.
It’s easy to let your feelings go wild when you’re sad. Notice your feelings and think about why you feel that way. Then, find a way to calm down and to express them. Do breathing exercises, listen to music or go for a walk or a bike ride, or do whatever helps you be in a better mood.

Remember that there are always people to help you. Don’t be too angry with yourself all the time even if you’ve done something wrong. Be kin d to yourself and ask for the helping hand that you need and get you through the tough situation you’re facing.
4. Try to solve the problem.
After you’re calm and you have support from adults and friends, it’s time to get down to business. You need to imag ine what the problem is. Even if you can’t solve all of it, maybe you can begin by solving a piece of it.
5. Be confident—most stress is temporary (短暂的).
It may not seem like it when you’re in the middle of a stressful situation, but stress does go away, often when you think about the problem and start working on solving it.

Television is good. You'd like to watch it all day and all night. But too much TV is a very bad thing, especially for kids. It may negatively affect their study and health.
Scientists have found that kids who watch too much TV may have more trouble learning to read than other kids. They may have worse language skills. Kids learn language skills best by reading, talking and playing with others. If they spend too much time watching TV, they'll have less time for those things. It may make it harder for them to get on well with others when they grow up.
Watching too much TV is also harmful for kid's health. It’s bad for the eyes. Kids don’t move much while watching TV. What’s more, they may eat a lot of food while watching TV. This can make them fat. We call people who watch too much TV “couch potatoes.”
Fighting on TV is a big problem for kids. An American child will watch a lot of fighting acts on TV every year. Young people are good at following others. Scientists say that those who watch a lot of fighting shows are more likely to fight.
So listen to the scientists. Watch TV for one or two hours a day at most or try to turn off your TV for a week. There are lots of fun things to do.

Try to smile more.When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too; and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.
Learn to be a good talker.If you find it hard to start a conversation, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Get your attention elsewhere.Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. That will help you relax and you will find it’s not so hard to talk with others.
Take one small step at a time.Each time when you say “Hi!” or smile at someone, say to yourself “You can make it.” Keep trying and one day you’ll never feel shy when you talk to others.

Many countries have improved their public toilets with new technology and other cool things providing an enjoyable experience for local people and visitors. Take a look!
● Japan has put a lot of thought into its “smart toilets”. For example, public toilet seats in Japan allow users to choose the temperature of the seats and control how fast the water moves. For your privacy (隐私), there is a “sound “ button. Pressing it will play a recording of running water sound or music to cover up your own noise.
● In Germ any’s public toilets, one never has to worry about running out of toilet paper, as there are often more than two rolls of paper available (可用的). Most of the toilets tanks are built in the back wall of the toilet, which can help to save space.
● In Australia, the government provides a National Public Toilet Map, showing the ocation (地址) of more than 17,000 public toilets across the country. Useful information is provided about
each toilet. such as its address, opening hours, availability of baby-changing areas and accessibly (使用方便性) for people with disabilities.

Do you know that a student can produce up to 240 pounds of school waste and lots of waste gas during a term? This includes transportation, food, paper, pens, pencils and so on. Transportation
Many parents like driving their kids to school every day. We all know waste gas from cars is a main cause of air pollution. If parents who live in a neighborhood can drive their kids to school by turns each day, that’ll be better. Another way of going green is to walk to school if students live
near it.
Food
It is surprising that only one primary school could produce up to 19,000 pounds of lunch waste each year. That is only one school. One way to help take care of the environment is to stop using plastic bags. There are all kinds of environmental boxes for students to put their food in. Paper, pens and pencils
A lot of paper is thrown away by American students. They throw away about 1.6 billion pens every year. They waste many pens and the chemicals of them are bad for the environment. Much more pencils are thrown away than pens. Pencils are made of trees, so if more pencils are thrown away, more trees will be cut down. So students should reuse paper, pens and pencils instead of throwing them away.
Backpacks
As fashion comes and goes, almost every kid needs a new backpack every year. They can save a lot of money and materials（材料）if they reuse the same schoolbags.

Mental health is about the way you think and feel and your ability to deal with ups and downs. Even though you are mentally healthy, it doesn't mean that you don't have a menta1health problem.
Mental health is everyone's business. We all have times when we feel down or stressed. Most of the time those feelings pass, but sometimes they develop into a more serious problem. It seems that our mental health doesn't always stay the same. It can change as the environment changes and as you move through different stages（阶段）of your life.
Here are four practical ways to look after your mental health. Making simple changes to how you live doesn't cost much or take up lots of time. Anyone can follow them.
●Talk about your feelings. It can help you stay in good mental health. It isn't a sign of weakness, but part of your ability to do what you can to stay healthy.
●Eat well. What you eat and how you feel are closely connected. A proper diet can have a good effect on your mental health.
●Keep in touch. Friends and family members can offer various suggestions which may help you do everything actively and solve practical problems.

We have all heard it: These high school years are the best time of our lives. But are these really the best years we will ever live? Or will we look back on these years with a sense of regret(后悔)? Luckily, here is a list of how to prevent some of the most common regrets: Get to know people around you
I’m sure one of your greatest regrets could be going to a class reunion(重逢), speaking with someone, and thinking to yourself, “Who are they?” (even after they have introduced themselves). Sure, there are lots of people in your school, but each person has his own stories and personality. It’s impossible to know who you could end up being friends with, so do not take the risk of missing out on a great friendship. Get to know everyone.
Have fun and stay true to yourself
You will probably regret spending every Friday night at home alone(unless that’s just your personality), so go out and have some fun. But don’t have too much fun and you mustn’t break the law. Don’t drink or take part in other illeg al(非法的) activities. Stay true to who you are. Don’t change who you are just to make others happy.
Sleep
If you want to be the high school superstar that has a perfect study record, is the star of the sport’s team, has the greatest social life and is the president of the Students’ Union-- you are not going to get any sleep. And in return, you’ll probably not have much fun either. It’s impossible to do everything and be perfect at everything and get sleep at the same time. Choose what is the most important to you and do not stress out(劳累过度) about everything else. Keep a proper balance.

Learning can take place in a classroom, in a meeting room, or even on a ship. Life experiences offer the students some of the best education packages available on the earth. Of those life experiences, travel offers the best returns(回报).
For international travelers, the lessons are the greatest. Taking that first step to cross the ocean by plane or boat is an adventure（冒险）. It teaches people to expand their horizons(拓宽视野) and it enables people to go beyond one land, one country, and one set way of thinking and doing things.
International travel awakens the mind with different cultures. Travelers see how different people do things in different lands. While this experience is exciting for adults, children get the greatest insights （洞察力）during the international exploration. It will help to form their understanding from a very young age. It will help them understand that differences among people and cultures can be quite exciting and wonderful in its own way. Fashion, art, science, transportation, religion, geography, geology and social studies are all areas of learning outside of the books when traveling abroad. There is no other way that can teach so much information in such a short time.
You can learn more from travel than from any single（单一的）educational experience. If you take no notice of everything you see, then surely you will learn nothing at all. But, if you are curious enough to look for new experiences through travel, you can learn more from travel than from any course in any university on the earth!

B
Whenever we meet with difficulty or failure (失败), teachers, parents or others often say to us "Never give up." These can be encouraging words. A person should believe in himself and keep trying to be successful no matter how many times he fails. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.
One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will seldom achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in something new, so we should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow.
Another reason is that we can learn from our mistakes in order not to do the same things again. If we do not try once more, the lesson we have learned is wasted.
Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.
In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. We succeed in the end or not, we will learn something , and what we learn will help us to become better and more confident. What's more, if we give up , we have no chance of realizing our dreams any more , but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will be successful one day.
