But for the children at Sudbury Valley School in Massachusetts, school is very different. Firstly, there are no lessons. All the children, aged between 4 and 19, do whatever they want. Th

19、ere are no teachers, only “staff members”. The idea behind this is that you do not need to make children learn, because children want to learn anyway. “You do not need to say to a three-year-old, Go explore your environment. You cant stop them!” says Daniel Greenberg, a founder of the school. “But i

20、f you make children do what you want all day they will lose all taste of learning.” At Sudbury Valley School, you will find children talking, reading, painting, cooking, working on computers, studying French, playing the piano, climbing trees, or just running around.Two boys spent three years just f

21、ishing! The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children can decide the rules. Every week, there is a school meeting where both children and staff have one vote eacheven the four-year-olds. They decide the school rules, how to spend the school budget (预算，经费 ), and even whic

22、h staff they want and do not want anymore. When the school first opened in 1968, people said it would never work. But today, the school has 200 students, and 80% of its students go on to college.

26、ging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others bur

27、st with anger, and scream and yell(叫喊，呼喊 ). But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing (抑制，压抑 )anger. For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a persons health than expressing it. They said that when a pe

28、rson is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷尔蒙 ;激素 ).They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc In general the person feels excited and ready to act. Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who

29、express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to re

30、cognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.” Doctors say that a good way to deal with
