It was the place of our last school trip. The trip was very exciting at first, because everything was new to me. On that day, we got up early and jumped onto the boat. As the boat started, snow-white water came out from below the boat, and the wind rushed into my face. The first island we arrived at was called the Island of the Lady, whose name came from the mountains looking like a beautiful lady. As the weather was nice, I spent half an hour playing with my classmates in the water. It was really fun and exciting. Everything was fine until one of my water shoes fell into the lake. So I had to go on the trip with only one shoe on. When we first walked through the forest, I thought it was a nice walk. But with only one shoe, my foot came across either cold glass pieces or hot stones along the way. As the day went on, the land became increasingly jagged (凹凸不平的). I winced (皱起脸) with every step I took. It was a trip of pain (痛苦). But then something magical happened. I suddenly found a seashell the size of my hand! I felt like I had found gold and all the pain was gone. Luckily, there was still something wonderful. The beautiful sea views and the beach treasure hunt were really unforgettable for me.

A video shows there are almost no students on the playground even during the 25-minute "big break". Many schools have rules, including no running in the hallways or even leaving the school building during breaks for safety consideration. But without these rules, some students still choose to stay indoors because of the distance (距离) to the playground. And they sometimes have to rush to the restroom as teachers begin the class early or end the class late. It is similar in England. Many schools have shortened their breaks in recent years. They say that it reduces bad behaviour (行为) and provides more time for learning. Over half of the middle schools only have a lunch break of 54 minutes or less. The school time of the two countries may be different, but they both agree on the importance of breaks. School breaks offer a chance to catch up with friends, relax, eat lunch, and get some fresh air. If students have more time away from their lessons, then they can rest properly and be ready for the classes ahead. It will also give them a chance to reflect on what they have learned. This can improve students' mental health as they will not be nervous and worried. If students use time to exercise, it will greatly improve their health levels. Now people in England are calling for longer breaks and they think it's students' right to have 75 minutes of break. The National Health Service suggests exercising for more than an hour a day. To help Chinese students enjoy the lively "10 minutes", schools need to provide a safe environment to do sports and play together. It's also their responsibility to encourage students to go out for proper activities and relaxation, as well as to teach students the safety knowledge. The "disappearing" breaks between classes China England Situations (情况) 1 ______ students play in the playground during the breaks. The breaks are getting 2 ______.
