Summer Fun at Happy Kids’ Learning Centre
Are you looking for something that can add colour to your summer holiday? If yes, here are the summer courses that you cannot miss!

Traditionally, baby boys are dressed in blue and baby girls are dressed in pink. We are taught this as children.
But as you grow up, this idea doesn’t mean much anymore. Take me, for example. I often wear pink or purple shirts. In fact, I’m wearing a pink shirt while I write this story!
While children might make fun of a boy wearing a pink shirt, I believe there really are no rules about what colors a man or woman can wear. That’s how it is in Australia and I’ve found it to be the case in China as well.
Yes, many men wear plain (朴素的) or even boring clothes in China. But there are many more who are quite happy to wear lots of creative things. Some men in China and Australia pay as much attention to their appearance (外貌) as women. And in China, I always see men taking selfies and posing (摆造型) for photos, just like girls do.
But if you think the idea of boys wearing pink is something new, think again. It isn’t original at all. Kassia St Clair, the writer of The Secret Lives of Color, said it was very different in the 19th century. She explains that pink was a color worn by men in the military (军队). Blue, she says, was the color for girls.
Somehow, over the following 100 years, this got switched (转变) around. But whatever the story is today, don’t let it stop you from wearing whatever color you want!

Yang Miao, a student studying nursing in Henan Province, feels lower than other people. “I’m the only one in my family studying in a vocational (职业的) school,” she told Sixth Tone. “Most of my cousins are in universities. It’s shameful for me. ” Like Yang, many people think vocational education is lower than universities. Many want this to change.
On May 1, 2022, the revised (修订的) Vocational Education Law of the People’s Republic of China took effect. It is the first time the law has been revised since it was made in 1996. And the city of Shenzhen was listed as a pilot (试点的) city for national vocational education reform. It will spend 10-billion yuan by the end of 2022 to support vocational education.
The revised law calls for raising the social position and income (收入) of skilled workers. It says that vocational education is as significant as general education. Vocational school graduates should enjoy the same chances for jobs as graduates of regular schools at the same level. The revised law also encourages vocational schools to work together with industries.
At present, there are 11, 300 vocational schools across China with 30. 88 million students. This is the world’s largest vocational education system, according to China Daily.
However, in some vocational schools, the teaching methods and school courses cannot meet the requirement to some high-level jobs. To deal with such problems, companies are encouraged to work with vocational schools in different ways, such as setting up trainee posts (实习岗位) for vocational students, taking part in writing textbooks, and training teachers of vocational schools.

Your schooldays should be some of the best and happiest days of your life. You shouldn’t waste this wonderful opportunity to learn. Here is our advice for you to have a happy school life.
Be active in school.
Don’t say things are difficult or boring. Be interested in school life and your school subjects. Join lots of activities. Be quick to put your hand up. Go around the school with a big smile.
Expect to work.
School is not a holiday camp. If you are not working, you are not learning, and you are wasting your time at school. Teachers cannot make everything enjoyable.
Keep fit.
If you do not eat a good breakfast, you will be thinking about food in class. If you go to bed late and do not have enough sleep, you will be sleepy in class. Play some sports to keep your body strong.
Do today’s work today.
Do not say you will do things tomorrow. If you get behind the class, it is very difficult to get back in front. You cannot finish a race if you rest all the time.
Don’t be too disappointed if things sometimes go badly.
Everyone fails some tests, loses some matches and has bad days. Friends are not always perfect, and they sometimes say and do unpleasant things. Don’t let small problems seem very big and important.
Talk about problems.
Sometimes they are only the result of misunderstanding. Don’t be too embarrassed (尴尬) to ask for help. You are young. No one thinks you can do everything!
Plan your time.
Don’t waste life lying in bed on Saturday morning. Go and play a sport, learn the piano, work on a project, read a book, practice English, or help someone with problems. There are always a lot of things to do.
根据短文内容,判断正(T)误(F)。

(E)
Are you the kind of person who likes to move with music? It’s a natural thing to do. Even little children start jumping up and down when they hear music.
Scientists say that animals dance, too. 46 The “dances” of animals send messages to other animals. But when people dance, they express feelings about life and love, or about these very human experiences.
47 For one thing, dancing is good for you physically. It makes your heart work and makes you breathe fast. 48 If you go dancing often, you can keep physically fit. You may feel very tired after dancing, but you’ll probably also feel relaxed and happy. This is another important point about dancing. It gives you a chance to express your feelings and feel better about yourself. 49 dancing helps those feelings go away.
50 Some dances are for couples and some are for groups. But all kinds of dances give you a chance to meet new people or to do something enjoyable with friends.
