They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At th

12、e same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world. Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred nineteen spent last year in Germany with Georges family. In turn, Georges son Mike spent

13、a year in Freds home in America.Fred, a lovely young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months study, the language began to come to him. The school was completely differently different from what he had expectedmuch harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the r

14、oom. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.Family life, too, was different. The fathers word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. A

15、lso, he missed having a car.“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize American schools,” he sa

16、ys. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities.

The table, as I remember, was always in my family and I had to clean it as a child as my weekly housework. It was suc

20、h a beautiful table that my mother was proud to have it in her living room. Our family moved around a lot because my father, a Spanish and Hawaiian guitar teacher, needed to find new students as the old learned and left. We were never without food, fancy clothes or a house to live in. but, as I grew

21、 older, I knew why. My father would usually make enough money to buy us food and clothing, and deal with the doctor bills by paying out of his own pocket for a family of six. He was self-employed and had no medical coverage(医疗保险). Through so many moves, my mother was the organizer of everything that

22、 needed to be done. Dad was away at around one oclock each evening, so the major kid rearing(抚养), cooking and cleaning were all her work. I can also remember her sewing almost every night. My mom didnt take vacations. She didnt go out to buy fancy clothes for herself, and what she did buy was for he

23、r four children. As children, we cared about almost nothing. We didnt care about when the next money would come in. and, all through the years there sat a table with a vase on top.

CParents should ban electronic media during mealtimes and after bedtime as part of a comprehensive“family media use plan”, according to new recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics. “Excessive media use is associated with obesity, poor school performance, ag

28、gression and lack of sleep”, said Marjorie Hogan, co-author of the new policy.Families should have a no-device rule during meals and after bedtime, the guidelines say.

46、ent examples of body painting. _37 Among the Masai of East Africa, when men are old enough to marry and make decisions for their people, they participate in a special ceremony in which they paint their heads and faces red.
