comments on the basis of just one unfortunate case (i assure you that not all young people who deliver newspapers are as foolish and dishonest as the two youths mentioned in your article, and one singlecase is not strong enough in supporting a point as evidence. i think you wouldnt disagree with me at this point)the first point i would like to make is that there are many jobs teenagers can do which give them useful experience of the working world. they are brought into contact with a variety of people, often older, and are given experience of expressing themselves clearly and logically. every young man will eventually be involved in social net work, and we cant expect them to act as a mature adult once they step out of school. i am thinking here of jobs such as travel guides and shop assistants. parttime jobs are actually a kind of guiding that young people need before they play their role in real career.another argument for school children and college students having holiday or weekend jobs is that many parents need the financial assistance. if we take, for example, a family in which the father is unemployed or perhaps a singleparent family on a low income, it seems logical and fair that a son or daughter should try to bring money into the household. and i think its also an education to young people what family responsibility is and what one should do in terms of showing their care and love.one further thing i want to say is that a lot of jobs for the young can be fun for the people who do them and also useful to the community. youngsters who help in schools, hospitals and with the elderly often gain a great deal of pleasure and satisfaction as well as contributing something valuable to local society. and the experience will make young people feel their value in our society so that they will be more eager to learn and more willing to offer their help.in conclusion, i would add that when i was a girl, my father said my teens were a time for books, hobbies and academic studies. thinking back, i feel i would have learnt much moreabout myself, other people and life in generalif he had allowed me to do a limited amount of real work. certainly, when she is old enough, i shall encourage my own daughter to do so, rather than waste her time with soap operas, computer games and discos, like so many young people today. i dont mean having fun is a waste of time. i just want to point out that fun and parttime jobs could be balanced.yours faithfully，margaret

perfect society now existing in the world the promise of a land where the rewards of a mans industry_ follow the progress of his labor with equal steps drew poor immigrants from europe into the western lands our national historical story is full of illustration of the american success story for instance, benjamin franklin was the very model of the self-educated, self-made man, who rose from

tumor（肿瘤）can be made up of many separate cancers needing different treatments, say researchers a team at the institute of cancer research, london, has developed a new technique for measuring the diversity within a cancer they showed extraordinary differences between cancerous cells and say traditional drugs may fail as they may be unable to kill all the mutated （突变）tissueexperts said the fmdings would have far-reaching effects for treatments a tumor starts as a single cell, which acquires mutations and eventually divides uncontrollablybut that is not the end of the process cancerous cells continue to mutate and become more aggressive, move round the body and resist drugs this process is disordered and results in a diverse tumor containing cancerous cells that have mutated in different ways this has huge implications for medicine, researcher prof mel greaves told the bbc his team at the institute of cancer research investigated cancer diversity in five children with leukemiathey compared mutations in individual cancerous cells with a known database of mutationstheir results, published in the journal genome research, showed patients had between 2 and 10 genetically distinct leukemiaprof greaves said:every patient doesnt have one cancer, they have multiple cancers this is really a technical advance to get at this extraordinary complex diversity; it helps explain why we have such difficulty with advanced diseases scientists compare canc
