     Many provinces, including Jiangsu, Shandong, Shanxi, and Fujian, started a textbook recycling
program at the beginning of the new semester. The program is to cut paper use. ①If all the textbooks are
reused for five years in China, the country can save about 225 million yuan.
     Under the program, primary and middle schools give out textbooks to students free of charge. ②The
books will be collected at the end of the semester for future use, so they need to be kept in good
condition.
     Getting new textbooks each semester has been the routine (常規(guī)) for most Chinese students for
many years, especially in rich places. Many grandmothers make textbook covers for their grandsons or
granddaughters, who come home with their school bags full of new textbooks on the first day of a new
semester. So can students accept the change? At least some students said they could accept the change.
"I like the idea of recycling my textbooks and I will do my best to keep them as new as possible," said
Zhang Muge, a grade two student. ③But some parents don't like this. "Recycled books may carry
germs (細菌) from previous (前任的) users," said a father in Fuzhou city. "I prefer to pay for the new
text books since they are not that expensive."

     New rules and -behavior standards(行為規(guī)范)for middle school students came out in March. Middle School is
going to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students won't only have high marks. They
will also be kids who don't dye(染)their hair. The following are some of the new rules.
     Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else's work on an exam? Don't do it again! That's not something
an honest student should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room, don't tell your parents
you have done homework.
     Do more at school. Good students love animals and care for other people. April is Bird-loving month in China.
Is your school doing anything to celebrate? You should join! That way, you can learn more about animals and how
to protect them. When more people work together, it makes it more fun for everyone.
     Have you ever quarreled with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make
your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others, not only yourself.
     Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Maybe you'll discover Earth
n someday. Don't look down on new ideas. Everyone's ideas are important. You should welcome them, because new
ideas make life better for everyone.
     Protect yourself. Has someone ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don't let it happen to you. If you
have to go home late, you should let your parents know.
     Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet aren't
for kids, so try to look at Web pages that are good for you. You can use the Web for fun or homework.
