In a school some trouble was caused by the students. They are very naughty and didn't obey the school rules.They often fought with each other and they didn't forgive each other. One day a new teacher came to this school. When he heard that, he came up with a good idea.
He told each of his students to bring a clear plastic bag and a bag of potatoes to school. For every person they didn't want to forgive in their lives, they chose a potato, wrote the person's name on it, and put it in the plastic bag.
Some of their bags were very heavy. They were then told to carry this bag with them everywhere for one week. They would put it beside their bed at night, on the seat when sitting in a car or on a bus, and next to their desk at school. Days of carrying the bags around with them made students get to know what a weight they were carrying in their minds. * And they had to pay attention to it all the time so they didn't forget it or leave it in embarrassing (令人难堪的) places. As time passed by, the potatoes went bad and smelt nasty.
Too often we think of tolerance as a gift to other people, and it clearly is for ourselves! * If we choose to keep our sadness and hatred (仇恨) in our hearts, we will have to carry them around all our lives. After that, the students got on well with each other and didn't fight anymore. Learn to forgive (原谅), and you will be happier at the same time.

It’s the end of class. When the bell rings, students of Luohu Foreign Languages School in Shenzhen quickly take out their cellphones. They want to log on (登录) to their microblogs (微博) to check the funny things that have happened in the last hour. Since last year, the trend (潮流) of microblogging has swept the country. Recent surveys show that most students in middle schools have a microblog, and some even update(更新) their blogs over five times per day.
“We learn many fresh and interesting things on microblogs and they have become popular topics in class,” said Liang Jianmin, 14, a student at Harbin No 3 Middle School. “If you do not know about them, you are out of the loop (被排挤在圈外).” It is also a great place for students to let out stress. “My parents always ask me to study hard, and encourage me before exams, but actually it adds pressure (压力),” said Zhang Yazhe, 15, a student in Luohu Foreign Languages School. “When I share these feelings on my microblog, I get many replies from friends in the same situation, which makes me feel better.” But parents are worried that microblogging could be a waste of time. Some misleading（误导性的） messages may even cause danger to kids, they said.
Shen Mingde, a professor at the China Education Association, suggests parents not worry too much as long as kids are not crazy about microblogging. Instead, it can become a window for parents to understand their children.
“If parents can read their children’s microblogs, they’ll know their thoughts, thus (因而) leading to better communication and solutions to problems,” he said. Micro blogging tips for kids
★1. Don’t microblog for more than one hour a day.
★2. Never microblog in class.
★3. Try to talk face to face with people instead of just microblogging.
★4. Be critical (批判性的). Don’t trust all the messages on a microblog.
( )81. Why do the students quickly take out their cellphones after class?
