When doing his math homework, Lu Lifei, 14, from Jiangsu, came across a problem. He couldn’t work it out. So he took out his cell phone, opened a special app and searched the problem. Answers soon appeared on the screen.
Nowadays, many students do homework with the help of the Internet like Lu. They search information online, use apps or discuss through social networks like QQ and WeChat.
“It’s convenient. You don’t have to wait or get a tutor（辅导，约束）on the spot,” Lu said. “You also learn by seeing how others work them out.”
It also improves students’ abilities, said Wang Shiying, 15, from Shanghai. And it’s especially true for new types of homework.
Wang’s Chinese teacher often asks students to give lectures on great authors. When it comes to Wang’s turn, she usually searches online, picks out certain stories and makes PowerPoint presentations.
“I’ve become adept(熟练的) at finding information online and using Microsoft Office.” Wang said. However, this trend (趋势) also brings up problems. Some students just copy the answers online without thinking. They become lazy. Huang Pengxiang, a head teacher from Shanxi said that knowing how to use the Internet is important. The key is to have good self-control.
“No matter how difficult the problem is, think about it independently (独立地) first,” Huang said. “Be sure to understand the reasons behind the answers, or you won’t make progress. If you’re not confident about your self-control, ask your parents for help.”

Playing is serious business for children. In fact, it’s what they do best! Ask them why they do it, and kids will probably say, “Because it’s fun!” But it’s much more than that. It’s also good for them.
Studies show that from birth babies begin learning through play. They use their five senses to get to know their new world. Touching allows them to discover how different things feel. Brightly coloured toys and clothing help develop a baby’s sense of sight (视觉). When small children choose which toy to play with, they begin developing their abilities in making decisions.
Children love toys that allow them to use their imagination (想象力). Sometimes an empty box is more fun than a high-tech (高科技) toy. That’s because a box can become anything to a child.
Crayons, paints and Play-Doh (彩色塑泥) are also good because they allow children to create. Traditional building blocks teach important pre-math skills.
Playing doesn’t become any less important once children start school. Many valuable lessons about life are learned on the school playground. Kids learn how to share, take turns and play by the rules.

Last year in the UK at least 45 people died and 900 more were injured (受伤的) in car accidents where drivers were using their mobile phones．Yet many people continue to use them while driving even though it’s dangerous.
Research has shown that it is difficult to concentrate on (专注于) driving and talking at the same time．It can even be more dangerous than driving after drinking too much. A recent study found that when drivers were talking on their mobile phones，their stopping times were 30 percent slower than when they had drunk too much—and nearly 50 percent slower than when they were driving normally. It also found that drivers talking on mobile phones were less able to control their cars than drunk drivers.
And talking isn’t even the most serious problem, but texting is. Unbelievably, another recent study reported that 22％ of adults admitted (承认) they had sent a text message while driving at least once in the past month. An average (平均的) text message takes 90 seconds to write and send. That means for one and a half minutes a driver is looking at their phone’s screen and not at the road. The arrival of new smart phones such as the iPhone will only make things worse as they will allow users to do more things than ever before．
Using a mobile phone while driving puts others’ lives at risk. No matter how well we drive，if another driver is not careful，we are put in danger by their actions. Such drivers are selfish，careless and should have their driving licences (驾照) cancelled (撤销).
There is no doubt that mobile phones can be fun and are useful，especially when you’re in trouble．But there is no need to use them while driving. Just wait until you stop or you will probably get into trouble of your own.
