Denny and Mark went to Sun Mountain with their class last week. The first day was great. Everyone enjoyed snowball fights. The next day was very cold and no one wanted to go out. "I'll not spend the day inside!" said Mark. He and Denny went out together.
By noon the boys went into the forest. They had a walk happily, but they lost their way. Before they could find the way, snow began to fall heavily. They were very afraid.
"We have to stay here," said Denny. "They'll find we aren't there and come for us."
"Looking up at the trees, Mark said, "I read a story once-some people stopped by a heavy snow made a lean-to（单坡屋顶小房）to protect themselves. Will it work?"
"I think so," said Denny, "but we'd better be quick."
The two boys worked quickly to make a lean-to out of branches（树枝）. Then they went inside. It grew dark. A cold wind blew through the lean-to. "I don't want to die here," Mark said in the dark.
"We're not going to die!" said Denny. But he wasn't so sure. Then he heard some shouting. The boys went out of their lean-to just as a few people got here.
"Here you are!" Mr. Jenkins, their headmaster, said excitedly. "We saw the lean-to and thought it might be you," he said. "Are you OK?"
"We're fine," said Mark. Everyone laughed.

High school students in England do much the same as those in America or any other country do. They enjoy using the Internet, telephoning their friends, going travelling, listening to music, watching movies on TV or at the cinema.
However, a new study shows that 15-year-olds in England have more fights than those in Canada, Australia and China. This has to do with how they spend their free time. In England, for example, 45% of 15-year-olds spend most evenings out with their friends. And in Canada, the number is 24%. In China, just 17% of 15-year-olds spend their free time in the same way. And in Australia, 15% of 15-year-olds spend their evenings out with their friends.
Another new study shows that the Internet is English students' favorite hobby. They spend about 31 hours a week online. One in four students of the 1,000 polled (接受民意测试的）said they often spoke to those they didn't know online and one in three said they tried to hide(藏）what they were looking at if a parent went into the room. But the study also shows that children also use Internet to help them with their homework. They spend at least three hours a week finding information.
