Very often, we expect our parents to solve our problems, however, they can’t solve every problem for us. We

This is what 2 country tries to do now: Helping more students have working spirit. To help us
understand the 3 of hardworking spirit education (劳动教育), the government released a guideline (发布指

The guideline requires students to learn 4 life skills and form good working habits through such
education, and they 5 work.
The government has always tried to help students 6 the importance of working hard. But many 7 do not value the importance of working hard and are not interested 8 doing so. Only 22 percent of primary
and middle school students help their parents with everyday housework.
School and families play an important 9 in teaching students about the value of working hard, the guideline says. Every week, primary and middle schools should 10 students with hardworking spirit classes. They can also organize activities to give students real-world work 11 . For example, they can
teach children how to 12 trees on Tree-Planting Day.
As children’s 13 teachers, parents should also encourage children to do housework. Students
should learn more life skills, which include cooking, washing their clothes and tidying up their rooms.
We’ll 14 grow up someday, leaving our parents and facing the challenges in life. 15
we learn enough life skills, we can depend on ourselves.
