     Frederick M. Hess is the director of education policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute,
which is a nonprofit organization that conducts research on many public issues. He says that a long
summer vacation doesn't make sense in today's world.
     Can American students afford to take a summer vacation? In a summer vacation, millions of kids
spend valuable time sending messages, watching TV, playing video games and doing shopping in the
mall. They will also be putting their academic futures at risk.
     Summer vacation once made sense in the past when you didn't need an education to get a good
job. But now things have changed. For today's students, academic skills are important to students'
future success, but such skills are affected in the summertime. Many nations don't give kids an
Americanstyle summer vacation. They offer no more than seven consecutive( 連續(xù)的)weeks of vacation. Most American school districts offer up to thirteen weeks. To compete in the global marketplace,
Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors.
     Summer vacation also causes challenges for today's families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of
families had a stayathome Mom. Now, twothirds of American children live in households where every
adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more burden than break. Someone must watch
the kids.
     But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement. Researchers
have found that disadvantaged students lose significant ground in the summertime.
     A longer school year does not have to be an invitation to hard boring work. Rather, it should allow
timepressed teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons. Schools would have more time to
devote to athletics, languages, music and the arts. Summer vacation can be a grand thing. But in the 21st
century, it may also be outdated.

                                               China's newly-weds spend too much   
        Weddings are so important in China that couples are willing to fork out about 20 times their monthly
income on getting hitched and everything that comes with it.
        China's newly-weds in cities spend 126,600 yuan (16,600 U.S. dollars) on average in 2006 when
getting hitched, Thursday's Chongqing Youth Daily reported, citing a recent survey by the Ministry of
Commerce.
        An analysis of 60,000 couples living in cities showed that about 64 percent of the spending went on
house decoration, furniture and household appliances and the rest was spent on the wedding, such as the
ceremony, photography, wedding dresses and feast.
        The survey said the wedding expenditure was only a small share of the overall marriage cost as most
Chinese young couples in the cities tended to buy an apartment and a car before tying the knot.
        The survey said that about 81.6 percent of the newly-weds admitted that they had got economic
support from parents as their monthly income on average was only about 6,240 yuan.
        The survey also showed that about 88.4 percent of the newly-weds chose having wedding
photography as a priority and 78.74 chose hosting a wedding banquet.
        In contrast, young couples in the countryside spent about 40,000 yuan on average on
marriage-related issues, less than one third of their city peers, according to the report.
        About 8.49 million couples got married in China in 2006.

     In addition to selfawareness, imagination, and conscience, it is the fourth quality-independent
will-that really makes effective selfmanagement possible. It is the ability to make decisions and
choices and to act in agreement with them. It is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon, to
actively carry out the program we have developed through the other three qualities.
    The human will is an amazing thing. Time after time, it has overcome unbelievable difficulties.
The Helen Kellers of this world give dramatic(給人深刻印象的) evidence to the value, the
power of the independent will.
     But as we examine this quality in the context of effective selfmanagement, we realize it's usually
not the dramatic, the visible, the onceinalifetime, upbythebootstraps(自立自強的) effort that brings
lasting success. This special ability comes from learning how to use this great quality in the decisions
we make every day.
     The degree to which we have developed our independent will in our everyday lives is measured
by our personal honesty.Honesty is, fundamentally, the value we place on ourselves. It's our ability
to make and keep promises to ourselves, to "walk our talk".
     Effective management is putting first things first.While leadership decides what "first things" are,
it is management that puts them first, daybyday, momentbymoment.Management is discipline (training
to be selfcontrolled), carrying it out.
     Discipline obtains from belief-belief in a set of values, belief in an overriding(最主要的) purpose,
to a longterm or shortterm goal that must be carried out.
     In other words, if you are an effective manager of yourself, your discipline comes from within; it is
a function of your independent will. You are a follower of your own deep values and their source.And
you have the will, the quality to control your feelings and moods rather than depend on others or have
your work half done.

      There are a number of advantages when it comes to living alone. However, it also comes with a few safety concerns. You still never know who will be around the corner. Don't become another victim; be sure to follow our tips.
     1. All doors should be kept locked.
     Always keep your doors locked when you are in your apartment or dorm. Make sure the doors are closed behind you when you come into the building and never leave your room unlocked, even when you are in it. There's always a chance that someone might sneak in while you are unaware. Always try to remember to close doors behind you to ensure your safety.
     2. Don't lose your keys.
     Even if you do everything you can to keep the doors locked, criminals might still be able to come into your house with a key. Always know where your keys are to prevent this. Never put them down in a public place or give them to friends. Also, before you bring your car into the repair shop, take off the house keys.
     3. When it comes to safety, standing up for yourself is important.
     If you aren't getting all the security features you want, don't be afraid to ask. If your lighting situation is less than ideal, discuss this with your supervisor or landlord. Talk to the campus security organization if you think a security phone near your dorm is a good idea. Request that the building employ someone to monitor those entering and leaving the building. You should feel safe where you reside (居住于), so stand up for your rights.
     4. Be careful.
     You still might find yourself in a potentially dangerous situation. Check your peephole (窺視孔) before letting anyone in. Whenever you witness something around your building that makes you uncomfortable or suspicious just dial 911. It is a good idea to always walk with a friend instead of alone. Become familiar with people who live in the building, so you can keep track of anyone that is a stranger.

     There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have
generally viewed personal growth as an external(外在的) result or a product that can easily be identified
and measured. The worker who gets a rise, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns
a new language-all these examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.
     By contrast(對照), the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since it is a
journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way. The process is not the road itself, but
the attitudes, feelings people have, and their caution or courage, as they meet with new experiences and
unexpected difficulties. In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to
experience the world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept.
     In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to face the
unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may "fail" at first. How we see ourselves as we try a
new way of being is necessary for our ability to grow. Do we see ourselves as quick and curious? If so,
we tend to take more chances and be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we think we're shy and
indecisive? Then our sense of fear can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and we think we are slow
to adapt(適應) to changes or that we're not smart enough to deal with a new challenge. Then we are
likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.
      These feelings of insecurity(不安全) and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are
to change and grow. If we protect ourselves too much, then we stop growing. We become trapped
inside a shell of our own making.
