Middle school days are both fun and busy. Students spend their days in class, listening to the interesting and boring words of the teacher. They spend the short breaks running, playing and shouting happily going back to the classroom again. But should students spend their free time outside school?
In Western countries, it is ordinary for students to have a part-time job after school and at weekends. Students can make their own money and learn more about the “ world”. They enjoy the independence(独立) and(of course) money, and parents enjoy the quiet house. , it seems that, in China, parents so much about their children’s studies that they prefer to see their children most of their free time studying and preparing for all those exams. It is natural for to feel that way in China, but I believe the answer lies in balance. Sometimes, western school children work long hours after school to make money, so they become too tired to listen in class or have no time for homework. But Chinese students spend much time on their studies that other things become3 less important.
So, find a good and healthy balance! If you have a part-time job and you feel , your parents will also be happy because you’re spending the money you make and not theirs!
