Nowadays, people highlight the requirement of education, which emphasizes children’s ability, personality and even independence．Children have to be “well-rounded” students by spending countless family hours attending extra classes．Last fall was a first-of-its-kind season．I did not arrange any after-school classes for my children．No swimming．No music lessons．No play dates．Nothing．
Once they finished their homework, they were free to do what they pleased, but only one hour of TV．In the beginning, my sons, Ben, 11, and Nick, 9, were anxious about this sudden, unplanned freedom．I had to push them out of the door with a ball, a bike and so on．“Play!” I ordered．
I learned that this new plan takes time, patience and a lot of faith in the theory that having excellent grades isn’t really important．
When my older kids, now in college and high school, were young, I brought in the rules of modern parenting．They are unspoken, but followed carefully．First, you must let your child have a variety of activities．After all, you never know where you’ll find a genius．Second, if the child shows the slightest talent, the activity must be pushed with lessons, special coaching （辅导） and practice of several days a week．Every minute should be taken and every minute has a purpose．That was really too much for my children．
Now with the new plan, we told stories, or we listened to music．And the kids played with bikes, balls, and whatever was handy．Nobody kept score．In fact, the boys played outside so much that the lawn was worn down to the soil in places．They’ve made friends with those who come from all over the neighbourhood to play games．
We like those peaceful evenings．Ben and Nick have a good time this fall．Maybe that’s because the time-off has allowed us to enjoy each other’s company． 21．What was new for the family last fall?
A．The children began to learn music when school was over． B．The children had nothing to do after school． C．The writer found no time to play with the sons． D．The writer arranged no extra lessons for the children． 22．At the beginning of that season the children ________．
A．were worried about the change
B．felt excited about making their own decisions
C．were pleased to have more freedom D．hated to spend more time on their homework
23．According to “modern parenting” discussed in Paragraph 4, parents should ________．
A．make use of every minute to be with the children B．provide coaching and practice for each activity C．try every means to find a child’s real talent D．know the rules but never talk about them 24．From the passage we learn that ________．
A．children like story-telling more than bike-riding B．parents should teach their children how to make a plan C．parents can enjoy their evenings when children play with others D．children should have time to enjoy themselves after school

（CNN） -- A teenager with cancer who touched the hearts of many in the United Kingdom with his tireless fundraising efforts died Wednesday at age 19．
It is the news that will sadden many supporters inspired by Stephen Sutton’s determination, generosity and good humor in the face of his illness．While he lost the battle to stay alive, he achieved a remarkable achievement: Having set himself the challenge of raising some ￡1million for a teenage cancer charity, he finally inspired over more than ￡3．22 million in donations．
On his website, Stephen’s Story, he tells how he was first diagnosed with cancer in 2010, at age 15．“In a strange way, I see my first cancer diagnosis as a good thing．It was a huge kick up the backside．It gave me a lot of motivation for life．”
Despite being told he would be unlikely to survive more than a few years, the teenager drew up a list of 46 tasks to complete before he died．“Some things on my list include sky diving, playing drums in front of a huge crowd, hugging an animal bigger than me．．．” However, the top of his list was to raise ￡1million for the Teenage Cancer Trust．
When he started the list, people came up to him and offered to raise funds for him．But he actually refused and decided to give the money to charity instead．
The first internet campaign saw his fundraising target failed．Several weeks later, with his condition getting worse, Stephen Sutton posted a picture of himself in a hospital bed giving his
