Most students are always told by their parents to study harder and better so that they can have a wonderful life in the future. Though this may be a good idea for those very bright students, it can have terrible results for many students who are not gifted(有天赋的) enough. Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hope. Such students felt that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they don’t want to go to school any longer. They become dropouts. It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers’ work to help their children. To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to those schools opening in the evenings and on weekends — they only help the students to pass the exams and never teach them any real sense of the world. Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students’ hair to their clothes and things in their school bags. Child psychologists(心理学家) now think that such strict rules are harmful to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong and how to show love and care for others, even for their parents. 66. “Dropouts” are those who _______.

It has seven steps. First, write down your house number. For example, if your address is 73 Lemon Street, you would write down 73. Next, double it. In other words, multiply it by two. Then, add five to this doubled number. For example, if your address was 73and you doubled it, you would get 146. Then, if you added five, you’d get 151. So, to repeat the first three steps, write down your house number, double it, and add five. Fourth, multiply this number by 50. In our example here, if you multiply 151 by 50, you’ll get 7550.
