Car﹣hailing company DiDi signed an agreement with TAL Education Group to provide free online courses for the children of taxi drivers．The courses，worth 30 million yuan，cover

all subjects from primary to high school．Children can study courses at home，saving parents time to spend or pick up children from off﹣line after﹣school classes．

According to Zhu Jingshi，vice president of DiDi，all 153 million registered（注册）taxi drivers of DiDi can ask for the courses on the company's mobile app．The car﹣hailing company will evaluate （评价）the drivers and provide courses on the basis of the time they became registered drivers with the company，the number of passengers served and evaluation from passengers．

The health and education of children have remained top priorities of Chinese parents，including taxi drivers． A survey done by DiDi and TAL showed that although the average monthly income（平均月收入）of taxi drivers is only 6000 yuan，many would like to pay 40 percent of their income for their children's education．

The survey found that most taxi drivers were born in the 1970s and 1980s and worked seven days a week．More than 70 percent of them have children under 18 but very few have time to be with family and children．Only 8 percent of them said they had guided their children in doing homework．Because of these，60 percent of drivers hope their children could receive the guidance from professional services．

Everyone has a beautiful memory about school which is hard to forget．Among many things，relationships are the hardest to leave behind．Some schools try to stop students'puppy love in different ways．Anything about"love"relationship is not allowed．For example，a middle school in Fu'an，Fujian Province forbids（禁止） boys and girls to sit together for meals and forbids boys to look at girls for a long time；a middle school in Luohe，Henan Province sets rules that boys and girls should meet in bright places with at least 5 other classmates，and if they meet in private they will be asked to go home with parents for more than a week and even advised to leave school，a middle school in Jinan，Shandong Province forbids everyone to send food and gifts to or receive them from the opposite sex（异性）．It also forbids students to help the opposite sex with bags and coats and requires"44cm"distance between boys and girls．

Some students are not satisfied with such rules．"Why should we have strict places for different sexes to eat？It's not using bathrooms!"Some people who care about the intelligence development of the students say that they should be more creative with fewer rules．For this，I'd like to say that middle school students are going through puberty（青春期）．It's normal for them to have some feelings for the opposite sex．Schools should provide correct guidance and education instead of giving simple and cruel rules and asking the students to follow．

52．The first paragraph mainly tells us about　　．

A．Not all the students agree with the rules made to stop puppy love．

B．In a middle school in Fu'an，boys and girls can't sit together in class．

C．Those rules can help students go through puberty without any difficulties．

56．The writer thinks　　．

A．it's necessary to make such strict rules
