完形填空。
Middle school days are both fun and busy. Students spend their days in class, listening to the interesting and
1 boring words of the teacher. They spend the short breaks running, playing, and shouting happily
2 going
back to the classroom again. But
3 should students spend their free time outside school?
In Western countries, it is ordinary for students to have a part-time job after school. And at weekends
students can make their own money and learn more about the "
4 world". They enjoy the independence (独立)
and (of course) money, and parents enjoy the quiet house.
5 , it seems that, in China, parents
6 so much about
their children's studies that they would prefer to see their children
7 . most of their free time studying and
preparing for all those exams. It is natural for
8 to feel that way in China, but I believe the answer lies in balance (平衡). Sometimes, Western school children work long hours after school to make money, and so they become
too tired to listen in class or have no time for homework. But Chinese students spend
9 much time on their
studies that all else becomes less important until they want that new MP4 player.
So, find a good and healthy balance! If you have a part-time job, you'll be
10 , and your parents will also be
happy because you're spending the money you make and not theirs!
