We’ll finally grow up someday, leaving our parents and facing the challenges in life. Parents may not be able to solve every problem for us. Instead, we should have enough life skills to cope with the problems that come our way.
This is what our country tries to do now: Helping more students gain working spirit. To stress the importance of hardworking spirit education (劳动教育) among students of different ages, the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the State Council released a guideline recently.
The guideline calls for students to respect work. Students should learn basic life skills and form good working habits through such education.
The government has been trying to stress the importance of hardworking spirit education. But this has been overlooked in recent years. Many teens do not value the importance of working hard and are uninterested in doing so.
According to a study of nearly 3,000 students that was done by Ningbo Evening News in March, only 22 percent of primary and middle school students help with everyday chores around the house.
Schools and families play an important role in teaching students about the value of working hard, the guideline says. Primary and middle schools should provide students with hardworking spirit classes every week, according to the guideline. Schools can also hold activities to give students real-world work experience. For example, schools can teach children how to plant trees on Tree-Planting Day.
As children’s first teachers, parents should also encourage children to learn how to do chores at home. Students should master one or two life skills every year. These skills can include cooking, washing their own clothes and tidying their rooms.
36.The guideline was released in order to ________.
A.teach students how to do chores at home
B.call for students to respect work
C.help students solve life problems
D.ask students to be more independent
37.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A.Challenges in life. B.Basic life skills.
C.The recently released guideline. D.Hardworking spirit education.
38.What is Paragraph 5 trying to tell us
A.Only 3,000 students help with housework.
B.Students pay no attention to work spirit.
C.About one-fifth of students help with housework.
D.Students are very dependent on their parents.
39.According to the guideline, schools should ________.
A.provide both guidance and chances for real work
B.hand out the guideline to every student
C.teach students how to plant trees
D.give parents homework
40.The article mainly tell us that ________.
A.hardworking spirit education is important and how our schools and parents should do.
B.the importance of hardworking spirit education.
C.what our schools should do.
D.we students should be hard-working and independent

Both of my two sons were born in Toronto, but they moved with us to Ottawa when they were quite young. They went to school there, grew up there. Later, one of my sons went to Canada’s east coast near a city called Halifax and the other moved to the west coast to Vancouver. My wife and I were left in the middle.
As we nearly retired (退休), we started to think where we should spend our final years. For several reasons we decided to live on a small town on Vancouver Island, where was close to one of my sons. However, the son moved to Hollywood soon after he had got another job there. I helped him move.
We still lived a happy life in our little west coast town, but we have paid a price. We have not been there for some important events such as the births of our grandchildren. We have missed watching them grow up; we have missed backyard barbecues (烧烤) and basketball weekends with them. Our home, while very comfortable, was also very quiet.
Every fall we travel to see the children. We usually fly, first to California to see our son Scott and spend a week or more with him trying to catch up on everything we’ve missed. Then, usually in November, we make the even longer trip east across Canada to see Travis and our grandchildren, who were about their twenties.
Fortunately, both our sons are doing well and grandchildren are growing up straight and tall. We love all of them and they love us. We’re very happy but there are times I think about the things we didn’t see: the tears or the smile on the granddaughter’s face, their school graduations, my son’s joy at successes in business.
Life has been good for our family but we have all paid a price.

例文
An unforgettable experience
Because of pandemic, I had to study online at home. So I have more time to stay with my parents. We talked and did sports together. But every coin has two sides. We also had a lot of argument.
One day, I didn’t hand in my homework on time. My teacher talked with my mother about my recent study. My mother shouted at me angrily. I felt aggrieved and I thought she didn’t understand me. After dinner, my mother talked with me face to face and knew about why I didn’t hand in homework. I told her my feelings and trouble. She taught me how to deal with these problems.
From this experience, I realized that we should communicate with our parents as much as possible. We can tell them our feelings and I believe they can understand us.
