1、 Some westerners think the ways of education in many Chinese families are hard to understand. Here are some examples.
In China, many children are taken care of by their grandparents because their parents are busy. 1.但是父母应该经常和孩子待在一起并与他们交谈。
2. Parents don't pay attention to children's rights. Parents should knock at the door before they go into the room of their children. They shouldn't look through their children's things before they agree. Children who are not respected (尊重) also do not know how to respect others' rights (权利).
3. Parents often compare their children with others. Most Chinese parents want their children to be successful, because it can save the parents' face. Parents often say, "Your best friend studies so hard. He has already got good grades and lots of big prizes. "This is the worst thing. It will only hurt their children's feelings.
4. Many children have to do what their parents expect, though they do not like it. For example, parents ask their children to learn to play the piano or go to study in foreign countries. Children should decide these themselves.
5.他们学习越努力,就会有更好的成绩。Many parents think school performance is everything. In fact, the integrated (综合的) ability is so important that it will influence children all their lives.
However, children should try to understand their parents. Children don't have to be perfect, and parents don't have to be perfect, either. It's important to understand and respect each other.

24、 When I was a kid, I got interested in astronomy(天文学), I often watched northern lights in my hometown in Lapland. I used to wonder how big the universe might be and what are “behind” the stars. But as I grew up and finally went to college, I hardly had any time to develop my hobby because of too much homework. It was in 2009 that I rediscovered astronomy. I found an astronomy magazine in a library and immediately I got interested in astronomy again.
When I start reading astronomy books and magazines, I start finding out how many interesting things there are outside the planet. I realize that the information I am reading, hearing and watching opens a door to a huge world of interesting things.
However, I do not have much time for my hobbies. Many times I would like to observe an object in the night sky, but I am working or I have to look after my kids. So I share my hobbies with my kids. I encourage them to observe the stars together with me. I read kids’ astronomy books for them and tell them about the moon, stars, the sun and many other interesting things. We all find it interesting at the same time.
I enjoy astronomy as a hobby and I hope other parents like me can read books and magazines about it. Just imagine that you and your family sit together watching the stars and talking in the garden on a summer night! How cool it will be!
