He was often lonely and scared. When he was fifteen, however, he decided to do something about his problems. He walked into a newspaper office and told them about the bullying. His story went into the newspaper and soon all the TV stations in Canada wanted to talk to him about his experiences. They also wanted to hear his ideas to stop bullying.After that, Rob continued his studies at school, but in his free time he helped other people with bullying problems. With a friend Katie Neu, he made a website called bullyingcanada. ca. Visitors to the website can find advice, stories and poems（诗,韵文）about bullying, in both English and French.

The public missed out, too, because people couldn*t go to shows. Going to a show, especially around Christmas, is a treat.The excitement starts as the lights dim and the heavy curtain（幕布）rises. However,tickets can be very expensive: fbr example,it can cost more than £100 fora ticket to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at the Palace Theatre in London. Evenwhen shows are not as costly, many people cannot afford the ticket prices, so they miss out. Some places are tiying to make sure that nobody is left out because of cost by asking audiences to pay what they can afford. What do you think? Should all shows be "pay what you can"?AgreeDisagreeI. Arts and culture should be available to all, no matter your income or background. Pay what you can opens the arts to everyone.1 2. Many arts venues are charities and also get1 public money, so they should give back to the audiences.i 3. Being open and inclusive（包容的）may well lead people to give more money to the venues, so that more people can go to its shows.1. The price of the ticket reflects the quality of the art. 'Tay what you can,' would mean "pay nothing'*, it makes the work seem less valuable.2. Research found that it's not the price of a ticket that puts people off going to see a show but the thought that the show won't be any good.3. It is expensive to put on a good show and those who enjoy the show should share in that cost and support the performers.Tell us what you think by voting 投票 at our website.
