It hopes to reduce students’ learning burden（负担）by reducing homework and after-school classes. One month has passed since the new term began. How do students feel about this new policy? “Our homework is clearly less than before,” said 13-year-old Shen Yuzhe from Beijing. “We are not encouraged to buy workbooks any more. The exercises are mainly from the textbook.” According to Shen, teachers now teach at a much slower pace（节奏）. Students have enough time to process new knowledge.“Our teachers are also giving us more chances to do experiments and learn from real life,” said Shen. “For example, we went to research earthworms（蚯蚓）in a field during a biology class. This is a much better way to learn things than just hitting the books.” For 13-year-old Zhang Hangming from Tianjin, the best thing about “double reduction” is the increased time in after-school activities. “We can now spend more time taking part in clubs and activities, such as dancing, volleyball and drama. I have joined a group called ‘leadership development in business’ where I can learn all kinds of skills beyond academic（学业的）study,” said Zhang. Both Shen and Zhang find there are fewer exams now. But they think it’s not necessarily a good thing. “Exams force me to study harder. Each exam shows my progress as well as my weak points,” Zhang said. Shen also pointed out that when burden is lightened（减轻）, self-discipline（自律）becomes the key. “Some students now spend more time having fun when homework is finished early. But if you use all the free time to relax, you might fall behind others,” he said. 1．What does the first paragraph mainly talk about? A．The result of “double reduction” policy.
