31、tional costs that are difficult for many families to meet.For working parents,the long summer break can be a very difficult problem for childcare.When an annual leave allowance amounts to only five weeks,there is a need to spread this across the year.Couples can find themselves taking leave in turn
32、in order to care for children who are on holiday.For some, this makes even an affordable family holiday difficult.The schools that I visit in Nottingham are full of experienced staff committed to giving our children a caring and inspiring learning environment.The number of children receiving free sc

34、 touch and support with their pupils.During the long summer holidays,much of this is missed.While teachers are holidaying in the UK,many of their pupils spend the whole six weeks on the street where they live.The lack of free school meals for six weeks can result in pressure on a family budget and a
35、n inability to afford the inspiring experiences that help children to continue their learning.In setting out its plans for a five-term year,Nottingham City Council(委员会) is seeking to reduce the summer holiday down to four and a half weeks,with a more balanced five terms of roughly eight weeks,each f

40、e”Dsome school s taff will say “No” to the plans for a shorter summer holidayBBlind imitation (模仿) is self-destruction.To those who do not recognize their unique worth, imitation appears attractive;to those who know their strength,imitation is unacceptable.In the early stages of skill or character d
41、evelopment,imitation is helpful.When I first learned to cook,I used recipes (菜谱 ) and turned out some tasty dishes.But soon I grew bored.Why follow someone elses way of cooking when I could create my own?Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a childs bicycle;they help you get going,
42、but once you find your own balance,you fly faster and farther without relying on them.In daily life,imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously (下意识地) hold poor role models.If,as a child,you observed people whose lives were bad,you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow
