He won't get out of bed in the morning. If he keeps on being late for school, he will really get into trouble. What can we do? —Susan A:If he can't get up on time in the morning, he needs to go to bed earlier the night before. If he can't wake up, ask him to buy an alarm with his pocket money. Tell him that if he doesn't want to spend his money on it, he must get up on time. That would make him know that he has to get out of bed! —Maggie Q:A student of our school lost a lot of money yesterday. I am worried that my friend Martin took it. I saw him looking for something in a coat pocket in the playground, but it wasn't his coat.I don't know if I should tell anyone. —Ben A:If you are not sure, you should talk to your friend first. Find out what he was doing in the playground at that time. Ask him why he was doing that. There might be reasons. If you don't ask him first, you might make a mistake. Find out what really happened.

But in recent years, some US schools have cut music classes to control budgets(预算). For example, Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired(解雇) over 1,000 teachers. Among them,10 percent of the teachers taught art or music, according to The Washington Times. In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science, math and history. That's partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn't tested. Many students are busy with schoolwork, so parents and students choose to focus on subjects that are tested more often. However, learning music is beneficial(有益的) in many ways. When playing music, you need different abilities to work together. It is not as simple as it looks, according to Kenneth Guilmartin of Music Together, an early childhood music development program. For example, when playing the piano, people see music notes and decode(解码) them in their brains. They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to deal with all these things at the same time. Music has a special connection with science as well. You can see that many scientists are good at playing music: Einstein played the violin, and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 ( )26.

Second, children know the value of a job only when they do it. 38 Third, housework helps children to get their life skills and manners.
