Let’s know more about it. What is labor education? Labor education doesn’t mean teaching students how to work, but is an education about the hardworking spirit. There are many kinds of things students can do at home, at school and in the community (社区). In the following, three middle school students are talking about labor education in their schools. Steve, 15, the UK Starting in Grade 7, our school makes DIY as part of the courses. It allows us to use different materials to make things like flower pots. We can also join in some volunteer activities. They are all useful and meaningful. I learn a lot from them. Zhang Boren, 13, China Students in my school have a 5-minute longer break between classes. To help us better enjoy break-time activities, the school opens planting areas and animal breeding zones (饲养区). So now we can do some labor in the gardens and animal feeding places during breaks, which is quite new and relaxing. Huang Luofei, 15, Singapore In Singapore, schools don’t teach labor education directly. We usually use the time after school to do some useful volunteer activities, such as helping clean up the school or raising money for people in need. Through these activities, we can learn to care about others. I enjoy them. What can labor education bring to students? ●Be independent: Doing chores teaches students important life skills about how to care for themselves, and helps them become independent. ●Be responsible (有责任心的): When students clean their classrooms or help at home, they learn to share responsibility as members of a group. ●Be thankful: By doing some work themselves, students will thank what others do for them. Labor education isn’t just about “work”. Through these hands-on tasks, students can learn that even small acts help everyone around them. 34. What is labor education? ___________________________________ 35. How does Zhang Boren spend his break time now? ___________________________________ 36. Which two countries have a common way of labor education? ___________________________________ 37. What can students be like if they get labor education? ___________________________________ 38. What labor did you do at home or in the school? What did you learn from it? ___________________________________ 八、词语运用（本题共有两个语篇，A篇有五个小题，B篇有十个小题，每小题1分，共15分） （A） 请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容，在空白处填入适当单词，使其通顺、连贯，并将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。每空一词。 Have you ever felt angry with your parents?

It makes me feel loved and supported. Through communication, I can always find a way to solve my problem. When I was in Grade 7, I was weak in English and often got low marks in exams.

They also advised me to ask my English teacher for help bravely. Now, my English has improved a lot. Through this experience, I realize that it’s necessary to communicate with my parents. Communicating with them makes it easier for me to deal with problems. And parents are always my strongest support. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
