Most people have their first drink by the time theyre 13. That first drink can be the start of a troubled life. 2Drink can make teens feel good, but that feeling lasts only a short time. Alcohol clouds your brain and hinders your ability to make decisions. Excessive drinking literally makes your brain shrink and can cause serious damage. Over-drinking can cause learning disabilities and damage your memory. It distorts your vision and leads to blackouts. Teenagers often think that drinking will give them more energy, but alcohol isn t an energy drink it s a depressant( 镇静剂 ). 3Drunk driving is one of the top causes of _ or teen boys. An alcohol-related motor vehicle crash kills one person every 33 minutes and injures someone every two minutes. The rate of teen drunk driving is so high that the government is trying to pass new laws to restrict teen driving. 4When we get to high school, friends start pressurising us to drink. High school students see alcohol as glamorous(富有刺激的 ) and a way to become popular. I conducted a survey at my school. 24 of the 63 respondents predicted they would drink in high school. 11 said maybe, and 28 said they didnt plan on drinking. 5Regardless of what they say now, things can change. Teens starting high school want to fit in. They think that one drink wont do anything harmful. A little bit of alcohol probably won t kill you, but it can lead to poor decisions. High school is the time to experiment with what you want to do in life, but if youre experimenting with alcohol you could hurt someone, including yourself. 1.

In her latest book entitled “The Battle Hymn of a Tiger Mother”, Amy describes how she adopts traditional Chinese methods to educate her children. One of the issues being discussed after the book was published is whether early education should focus on childrens happiness. Those supporting the idea argue that early education is intended to help children grow up in a cheerful atmosphere and inspire them to better themselves in an all-round way. Therefore we should allow children to enjoy the happiness which can only be found during their childhood. On the contrary, people holding the opposite view insist that since in reality life is full of happiness and pain, children should be well prepared for that even during childhood. Otherwise, they would find it hard to adapt to life in the future. In my opinion, just as Confucius said, education methods should be adopted based on individual personalities. Moreover, educators should respect children as independent human beings.
