Question

The weekend is usually a time of rest. But today’s Chinese teenagers can’t rest during the weekends. According to a survey（调查), 24% of the Junior students in Beijing have classes at the weekend. Over 40% of the Junior 3 students have less than eight hours of sleep each night.

Ji Ping, a Junior student in Guangzhou, has to get up at 6:30 a.m. on Saturday. Then she has a whole day of classes. On Sunday she gets to extra（额外的）classes for Maths and English. But she doesn’t complain（抱怨）. She says that all her classmates work hard on Sunday.

Liu Yang is from Dalian. As a Junior 2 student, his weekends are less busy. But he always spends Saturday in school. On Sunday, after finishing homework, he plays basketball. He feels happy because he still has time to do the things he likes.

A few students are luckier. Yang Qing, a Junior 3 student from Zibo, Shangdong, is one of them. At weekends, she usually gets up at 8:00. Then she spends some time doing homework. After that she is free to do what she likes. “Don’t push（逼迫）yourself too much. Learning well at school is easy,” she said. And she is a top student in her class.
