Most people work or study from Monday to Friday. The weekend is usually a time of rest. But today's Chinese teenagers can hardly rest during the weekends.
According to a survey,24% of the Grade 8 students in Beijing have classes at the weekend. Over 40% of the middle school students have less than eight hours' sleep each night because of study.
And this doesn't happen only in Beijing. Ji Chunying is a Grade 9 student in Guangzhou. The 14-year-old girl has to get up at 6:45a. m. on Saturday. Then she has classes all the day. On Sunday,she goes to extra (额外) classes for math and physics. But Ji doesn't complain. She says her classmates all work very hard.
Finding Time to Have Fun Zhao Ming,13. is from Zhanjiang,Guangdong. Zhao's weekend is less busy. But he still spends Saturday at school. On Sunday,after finishing homework,he plays basketball. "I feel happy because I still have time to do the things I like," he said. Some students are much luckier. Ding Yi,a Grade 8 student from Laiwu,Shandong,is one of them. During the Kids enjoying their weekend weekend,Ding usually gets up at 9:00a. m. Then she spends.”in Zhanjiang by picking fruit some time doing homework. After that she is free to go shopping or watch TV. "My teacher said I don't need to push myself too much. Learning well at school is enough," Ding said. "I feel pretty lucky." |
