阅读下列短文，从文后各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。

Middle school days are both fun and busy. Students spend their days in class, the interesting and sometimes boring words of the teachers. They spend the breaks running, playing, and shouting happily before going back to the classroom again. But should students spend their free time outside school?

In Western countries, it is ordinary for students to have a part-time job after school and at weekends. Students can make their own and learn more about the “real world”. They enjoy the independence( 独立) and of course money, and parents enjoy the quiet house.

, it seems that, in China, parents so much about their children’s studies that they would prefer to see their children most of their free time studying and preparing for all those . It is natural for to feel that way in China, but I believe the answer lies in balance. Sometimes, Western school children work hours after school to make money, and so they become too tired in class or have no time for homework. But Chinese students spend much time their studies that all else becomes less important until they want that new MP4 player.

So, find a good and healthy balance! If you have a part-time job, you’ll be , and your parents will also be happy you’re spending the money you make and not theirs!
