Bao Yunlu , a senior 2 boy from the No.8 Middle School in
But last week Li Honggui , head of the China Family Planning Association , sparked a hot debate when he told newspapers there would be no change to the current one-child policy . It will remain the provincial governments’ right to decide on individual cases .
“Being an only child is quite lonely . Sometimes parents can’t understand and friends don’t care.”
The one-child policy began in 1987 . Now
As the center of the family’s attention they don’t know about the hardship of life . “The one-child generation has no idea of thrift (节俭),” said Xing Yuan, professor of sociology at Shanxi University . Some of them also don’t know how to get on well with others .
Bao agreed that being an only child has had an effect on his personality . “We are less tolerant and considerate than our schoolmates who have brothers or sisters,” he said .
But others don’t agree . “I don’t feel the difference between me and my classmates who have a brother or sister . They often complain to me about quarreling with their brothers or sisters . I feel lucky to have nobody to steal my belongings,” said Bai Yijing , a senior 1 girl from the Middle School attached to Beijing Petroleum Institute . As an only child , Bai is quite happy. “I spend my leisure time and share my feelings with my friends . I am not lonely at all .

Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how.
1) Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.
2) Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
3) Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers says. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
4) Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
5) Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be overly worried.
There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.
