Tissa was a little boy. He was only ten years old. But he liked travelling. Tissa was studying in a primary school. Last week he went on a school trip with his teachers and classmates.
They spent one hour on the bus and finally got to the hill. They found a valley(山谷) full of roses. There were many kinds of roses. Some were red. Some were white. Some were black. They were very beautiful. Many bees and butterflies were flying from one rose to another. Tissa and his friends tried to catch some butterflies, but they failed to do so. Then they walked through the valley and enjoyed those beautiful flowers and butterflies.
After they got to the top of the hill, they took out the food with them. Tissa had lunch with his friends. Then they began to dance and sing and play games on the hill.
Then it was time for them to go home. They were a little tired, but they were very happy, because they had a good time on the school trip.

Experts(专家) say that students usually need eight to ten hours’ sleep at night, but most Chinese students do not get enough sleep. Some Chinese parents are usually glad to see their children studying late. They will think their children work very hard, but not all parents are happy about this. Once a mother told us that every morning her 10-year-old boy put up one finger with his eyes still closed, begging for one more minute to sleep. Like thousands of students “ early birds” in China, he has to get up before six every morning.
A report shows that without a good night’s sleep, students seem to be weaker (虚弱)than they should be. Many students have fallen asleep during class at one time or another. Too much homework is not the only reason why students stay up late. Some watch TV or play the computer games late into the night.

What do you usually do to get pocket money from your parents? In western countries, many children do chores to get pocket money. They usually start to do this at 10 years old.
School students have to do homework and study for tests. They don’t have a lot of free time in the week. They often do chores at the weekend.
Young kids only do easy chores. So they don’t get much money. But that’s all right. Many of them only want to buy candy. And candy is cheap! They help wash up after dinner and feed the family cat or dog.
When they get older, kids want to buy more and more things. They want things that are more expensive than candy. Then they have to work harder! They often wash the family car, cut the grass, walk the dog and cook dinner.
Some jobs are a good way for kids to learn new things. For example, they can learn to use a lawnmower(割草机) or how to cook. Of course, their parents help them at first.How do the children in western countries get pocket money?
