Punishments in UK
Here are some of the ways that the UK school children can be punished.

Choose the best answer （根据以下内容，选择最恰当的答案）
It happens to all of us. It is the end of the semester and your teacher gives you your report card. You look at it and your heart stops because you realize that your parents are going to be very angry. This is the classic case of a bad report card! There is nothing you can do to change the past. So, what do you do now?
A disappointing report card is something that almost all students will experience at least once in their lives. Grades are how most schools evaluate（评价）students and they are pretty important. The problem is that we do not always get good grades we (or our parents) want. After a bad report card, it is important to figure out what to do next.
The first thing to do is talk to your teacher. Find out how your grades were calculated. Was the problem a bad test, lack of participation（参与）in class, or a failure to complete homework? Next, if the problem is something you can solve on your won (such as not doing your homework), make a promise to change your behaviour! However, if you have been studying hard and still got a bad grade, you probably need some extra help with your classes. Talk to your teacher and explain your situation. He or she will tell you where you can receive the extra help you need. Then, make a detailed plan of how you will improve your grades. Write down the plan and have it ready when you take to your parents. That’s good way to make your parents less angry.
While all parents want their children to get good grades, most understand that not every report card will be perfect. The important thing is that you show your parents you have a plan to improve your grades for next time. Always remember, many of the world’s most successful people failed many times before they became successful. They learn ed from their failures, and you should too!
