He fell so hard that his trousers broke. However, when he arrived home, his parents only complained (抱怨) that he wasn’t being careful and said nothing to comfort him. Xiao Qi is not alone. Over half of the boys in middle schools hope to get more support from their parents, according to the latest survey done by the National Institute of Education Sciences. It says that only two out of every 10 parents give boys enough support. The survey also shows that boys like to deal with problems in their own ways. So they don’t ask for help from parents. Most students agree with this. Te Te prefers to talk to his friends or listen to music. “I’m afraid that my parents won’t understand me,” he said. There still seems to be a gap (代沟) between parents and boys. When they have communications with each other, they talk mostly about school, according to the survey. Xiao Jun’s example is typical. He tried to share his interest in a pop star, but his parents didn’t understand. “We live completely in two worlds,” he said. But some boys don’t agree with the results at all. They get along very well with their parents. Xiao Hang talks about everything with his parents, from travel to future plans. When he gets into trouble, he tells his parents frankly (坦率地). “We are like good friends. They don’t encourage me every day. But a simple word makes me happy. For me, that’s enough,” he said.

Maybe good-looking, too. Right? But what do other people think about our generation? Some adults worry that you’re more interested in the screen in front of you than the world around you. They think of you as the “face-down generation” because you use your phone so much. They wonder how you will deal with school, friends, and family. Other adults worry that today’s youth are spoilt and don’t want to face the challenges of adult life. Many children born in the 1990s and 2000s were raised by “helicopter parents”. They were always there to guide and help their children with a busy program filled with homework and activities such as dancing, drawing, or sports. With parents who do everything for them, today’s youth seem to live like teenagers even when they are in their 20s or 30s. Does the face-down generation need a heads-up? Well, probably not. The fact is that many of today’s teenagers are better educated and more creative than past generations. They seem to be willing to become leaders. More young people than ever volunteer to help their communities. There are also brave young people such as Malala Yousafzai, the teenager who won the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize for pushing girls’ rights to go to school. So if you’re one of the oh-ohs, there is reason to be hopeful about the future. Things are looking up for the face-down generation. You are likely to do great and laugh out loud. 1.

He thinks some of them are good. For example, they can’t arrive late; they can’t run in the hallways; they can’t eat in class; and they can’t leave the classroom without teachers’ permission (允许). All these rules are okay because they are reasonable (合理的). But there are some rules Tom doesn’t like. For example, at his school they don’t have to wear a uniform and they can’t wear jeans or jackets. But he thinks jeans or jackets are good because they’re comfortable (舒服的). In school, they can’t listen to music in the art class. Tom doesn’t agree with this rule. He thinks listening to music in the art class is okay. Tom also has to follow some rules at home. For example, if he wants to watch TV, he has to do his homework first. And he can’t go out with his friends on school nights, that is, from Monday to Thursday.

They also show traditional culture or their own feelings with different styles of paper-cutting. People show everything in paper-cutting, from great people to the things that we can find in everyday life such as birds, flowers and animals.

They show up in rural northeastern Maine every August, saving their earnings for school clothes and other expenses for their families, to harvest wild blueberries. The blueberries they harvest are different from those you might see year-round in the supermarket. The most common commercially grown blueberry is the highbush, a tall native shrub that can be planted and cultivated in different climates. By contrast, wild blueberries are not planted but grow naturally as a ground cover from North Carolina to Canada. Smaller and sweeter than highbush blueberries, wild blueberries are considered one of the most nutritious foods on earth. The berries can be eaten fresh, stewed in tea and cough syrup and used as a dye. However, in recent years, as spring and fall have become warmer, the blueberry season has changed, too. Harvests started only in August. Last year, it began in mid-July. Summer in Down East Maine used to be relatively cool, 80 to 85-degree days are now common, which impacts the quality of the berries and the ability of the harvesters to work. This stresses plants and people as well. And the ideal growing conditions for wild blueberries are moving north from Maine into Canada while the machines that harvesters in Maine have cannot deal with the new problem yet. Although scientists at the University of Maine are analyzing how berries respond to heat stress and excessive precipitation in order to help growers predict how probable climate scenarios will impact their blueberries, there are no easy solutions. “If the industry is going to stay here in Maine, ________.” 1.
