[04:03.02]so do we. For example, I have to stay at home on school nights.
[04:09.84]I usually do, too. But sometimes I’m allowed to study at a friend’s house. What about weekends?

[06:29.29]The other day, my friends and I talked about the rules that we have in school.
[06:35.64]At our school, we have to wear uniforms every day.
[06:39.79]The problem is that all my classmates think the uniforms are ugly.
[06:45.41]We think young people should look smart and so we would like to wear our own clothes.
[06:50.97]Our teachers believe that if we did that, we would concentrate more on our clothes than our studies.
[06:58.08]We disagree. We would feel more comfortable and that is good for studying.
[07:04.24]If we can’t do that, we should be allowed to design our own uniforms.
[07:10.09]That would be a good way to keep both teachers and students happy.
[07:14.77]It’s also probably a good idea for parents to allow teenagers to study in groups during the evening.
[07:23.02]I know we get noisy sometimes, but we learn a lot from each other.
[07:28.48]We also think that vacations should be longer.
[07:32.43]At present they’re too short.
[07:34.78]Longer vacations would give us time to do things like volunteering.
[07:40.34]Last summer I had an opportunity to volunteer at the local hospital.
[07:46.22]It couldn’t because I had to go back to school.
[07:49.38]It would be a good experience for me because I want to be a doctor when I ’m older.

[08:16.13]At our school, we sometimes have a special day to help others.
[08:21.80]Last year we went to and old people’s home and sang songs and performed a play for them.
[08:28.30]The old people were very happy.
[08:32.25]We should be allowed to take time to do things like that more often.
[08:37.00]For example, we should visit primary schools and help teach young students.
[08:42.86]I want to be a teacher when I’m older so it would be a great experience for me.
[08:48.89]Other students would like to do other jobs.
[08:52.73]For example, my friend Tina Ge wants to write for a newspaper.
[08:58.24]She should be allowed to volunteer at the newspaper office once a week.
[09:03.10]On Friday afternoons, many students are sleepy after a long week of classes.
[09:09.34]Some students should be allowed to have Friday afternoons off to volunteer and help others.
[09:16.11]Should I be allowed to make my own decisions?
[09:26.82]Many teenagers have hobbies.
[09:30.19]But sometimes these hobbies can get in the way of schoolwork, and parents migh worry about their child's success at school.
[09:39.38]Teenagers often think they should be allowed to practice their hobbies as much as they want.
