Three hours of outdoor play and no mobile phones or computers—this might be the reason why they all have good eyesight. In the school, children eat healthy food and have enough sleep every day. During class breaks, all of them need to go outside. When the three sports teachers of the school are busy, other teachers will teach students to play basketball and table tennis. To stop students from using mobile phones, the school installed(安装)six public phones for them to call their parents. Even on weekends and during vacations, the school tells parents to care about kids' eye health in teacher­parent WeChat groups. Sun Fubiao, the primary school's headmaster, tries his best to help students protect their eyesight, because he himself and five other teachers are nearsighted.“It's uncomfortable to do many things wearing a pair of glasses in daily life，” he said.“I do not want the children to have the same bad experience.” Now, people come up with many ideas to protect children's eyesight. Children should play online games for no more than three hours a week. They need to do eye tests each term. Schools can't give homework to first and second graders. These ways are really useful to make students go outside and play. (　)9. How does the school ask parents to protect children's eyesight on weekends? A．By giving them calls. B．By discussing in groups.

Last term, I went to Beijing Qizhi Special Education School for community service(社区服务). Before we took the bus, my friend asked me a question，“Why are you here？”I did not know how to answer the question. The school was not far from my school, but it looked like it was in a different world. A group of children were waiting for us. A boy walked towards me. He held my hands but he pulled me to the ground. I kissed the soil and tasted nature. I was confused at first, and then angry. How dare he? However, I could not strike back(反击). A teacher stopped the boy.“What are you doing right here? You will never see your mum again if you keep doing this. Now, apologize！”“Sorry，” he cried as he burst into tears of panic(惊慌). I said nothing, but I realized something about this child. After having lunch with the children, I asked the teacher for information about the child's parents. She said that the child was ill. His family could not afford to cure him. He needed the care of his family，but they abandoned him. So he needed the support from teachers and community service workers like us. I suddenly realized I could answer the question my friend had asked me at the beginning of the day. Community service workers help others and make everyone feel better. There are so many people in the world that need help. Playing with lonely children may not make a big difference. But it can light a corner in the children's hearts, making them know they are loved by people. (　)13.
