When I was in seventh grade, I was shy and quiet, so I was easily bullied(被欺负). I used to get very sad about it.

In an art lesson, just while the teacher was out, a big boy took away my pencil case, threw it across the classroom and sat back down. Later on, he took my schoolbag and pulled it towards him. I pulled back the schoolbag from his hand for the first time. I pushed him away and hit him on the back. In the rest of lesson, I was nervous. I did nothing but imagined what would happen next.

Then the teacher came to me," Peter, are you OK?"

"Yes," I answered.

"No, you are not. Come to my office after class." he said

There we had a long talk. He made me smile and I became confident again. He taught me some life lessons, and said," Get up, and don't be a bully(欺凌弱小的人) yourself,  but remember you stronger inside, and if the bullies see this, they will stop.

I remember these words. From then on, every time as I walked to school, I put my head high on the way and the bullies soon stopped.

Many children spend a lot of time watching or playing with electronic media from televisions to video games, computers and other devices(设备).

So, it is natural that parents should worry about the time their children spend looking at the TV or the computer screen. Americans say" screen time" when they talk about any time children spend in front of an electronic device.

Perhaps parents can stop worrying so much about screen time, at least for elder boys and girls. In October 2016, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) listed several suggestions for parents and child care workers. Here are some of the suggestions.

●Avoid digital media use by children younger than 18 to 24 months.

●For children aged 18-24 months, avoid letting the child watch media alone. And avoid using media as a way to comfort your child.

●For children two to five years of age, allow one-hour screen time on" high quality(质量) programming" a day and watch it with your child.

●For children aged 6 and elder, don't spend too much time using media. Also, make sure that screen time does not take the place of healthy sleep, exercising, doing homework and other activities.

●Make sure to have media-free time together as a family, such as dinner or driving. Also make some areas of the home for media-free time. Turn off your child's electronic devices an hour before bedtime.

On January 27, in order to win the COVID—19 War(新型冠状病毒肺炎战), the Ministry of Education issued(公布)a notice on putting off the start time of school in spring 2020. It was said that school should not start before February 17. The exact start time of school will depend on situations and further notices.

However, many parents are very worried that putting off the start time of school may affect children's studies. If they have such a long winter vacation, children will not learn any knowledge, read books or study at all. They may forget what they have learned before. Staying at home for a long time will make them keep eating, sleeping and playing, which seriously affect their physical and mental health.

In short, the close of school Influences learning and develops bad habits, so how can we avoid these problems? Local education departments have also issued a notice, that is, to organize online teaching and create a network platform(平台)，where necessary courses will be shown every day, and online teaching will be given by excellent teachers of the subject, and students can learn at home through computer or mobile network.

It should be said that such a method is very good. It can not only keep students indoors and not worry about the infection(感染) of the disease, but also make them study at home, improve their learning ability, and truly achieve" nosuspensionof classes". Both the platform itself and the recorded lesson resources are more useful, and are welcomed by parents and teachers.

Of course, except for learning at home, it is also necessary to teach children about health knowledge, especially how to keep away from touching virus and other knowledge. It is also necessary for children to do some physical exercises or some games, which is good for physical health at home.
