The waiter remembered his experience as a young high school prudent. So he made sure the teens had a pleasant experience at the restaurant. The waiter made sure of it.After serving all the teens doing a great job, he was left a tip（小费）,only $3.28. That was hardly enough to buy a drink at Roebucks.The waiter went home. And he felt hatred for the students who did not know the value of hard work. They looked down on people like him. Or so he thought.After several days, the waiter forgot about it. His life went on as usual. But ten days later, he received a letter from the teens.“About a week and a half ago, on October 7, my three friends and I came to eat at this restaurant as our own homecoming celebration. It was an exciting experience for us to be here alone, and it was all new to us. And you were the best waiter we could ask for. You were kind, helpful, and didnt treat us like babies! So I want to say thank you for making our groan-up experience so amazing and fun.“I would also like to say sorry on behalf of(代表) my group. Since we were new to all of this, reasonable(合乎情理)，but we had completely forgotten(and didnt know, to be honest) what a tip even was, let alone how much to give. So we emptied our pockets, and all our money added up to $3.28.“Having no idea of how small this really was, we left. Later, we realized our mistake and felt terrible. We knew we had to make it right.“So together with this letter, you will find the correct 18% tip + extra for simply being amazing.

Most students are always being told by their parents to study harder so that they can have a wonderful life. Though this may be a good idea for those very smart students, it can have terrible results for many students because they are not talented enough.As it is reported, a number of students killed themselves. Others try to get the feelings of taking drugs(毒品). Some join the groups of troublemakers and turn to crime(犯罪). Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hopes. Such students felt that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they dont want to go to school any longer.It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any ways .Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and it is the teachers work to help their children. To make matter worse, a lot of parents send their children to those school opening in the evenings and on weekends they only help students to pass exams and never teach students any real sense of the world. It is a great surprise that almost three quarters of middle school students have been to such kind of schools. Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students hair to their clothes and the things in their bags. Child psychologists (儿童心理学家)now think that such strict rules are harmful (有害的)to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong, how to show love for others, even for their parents.（1）Why do the Japanese student feel unhappy?

Of all the environmental problems, air pollution is being called the most dangerous.Most of these deaths take place in developing countries. However, WHO environment and health chief Maria Neira tells that air pollution is alevelerbetween rich and poor. Everybody, she says, needs to breathe.“You can be a very rich child, your parents very rich, but living in a place, in a city, which is very polluted. Then there is very little you can do because we all need to breathe. Air pollution is everywhere.”Maria Neira says one of the most important ways to reduce air pollution is to produce cleaner fuels for cooking and heating.“Almost half of the world population is using dirty fuels for cooking, heating, and lighting at home.
