Some of the most stressful jobs include teaching, nursing, and police work. These skills help to prepare teenagers for their later lives. When they grow up, the students with work experience are more likely to succeed than those without work experience.

After the kids go to bed and before the parents come home, babysitters have lots of freedom.

New rules and behavior standards(标准) for middle students came out in March. Middle school is going to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students won’t only have high marks. They will also be kids who don’t dye(染) their hair, smoke or drink. The following are some of the new rules.
Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else’s work in an exam? Don’t do it again! That’s not something an honest student should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room, don’t tell your parents you have done homework.
Do more at school. Good students love animals and care for other people. April is Bird- loving Month in China. Is your school doing anything to celebrate(庆祝)? You should join! This way, you can learn more about animals and how to take care of them. When more people work together, it makes it more fun for everyone.
Have you ever argued with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others, not only yourself.
Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Maybe you’ll discover Earth Ⅱ some day. Don’t look down on new ideas. Everyone’s ideas are important. You should welcome them because new ideas make life better for everyone.
Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet aren’t good for kids, so try to look at Web pages that are good for you.
You can use the Web for fun or homework. Can’t you find any good websites for children? Here are some: http://kids.eastday.com, http://www.chinakids.net.com, http://www.cycnet.com.
