Nearly half of elementary and high schools in the US use the Presidential Fitness Test．It checks kids’ fitness levels．Students are tested at least twice a year．In 1956, US President Eisenhower created the test, and it has been a tradition in schools since 1966．
There are five activities in the test: sit-ups(仰卧起坐), push-ups(俯卧撑), sit and reach, endurance run or walk and shuttle run(折返跑)．Students who get scores at or above 85 percent on all the activities can get a Presidential Physical Fitness Award．
The test encourages students to live a healthy and active life．Students taking the test are really testing their limits, according to the US National Association for Sport and Physical Education．

However, unlike students in the US who get awards, Chinese students get points in PE tests．The highest score is 100．For junior school students, the PE test is more important because it is worth 30 to 40 points in the entrance exam for senior high school．In order to get a good score, most students begin to prepare for the test in their junior one year．

With the development of economics(经济), the problem of the left-behind children(留守儿童) has become a serious social problem. More and more people have realized we should do something to help them.
The biggest problem is that the children are all hungry for the love from their parents. Many of them can just get a call or a letter from their parents half a year, a year or even several years. So some children can’t remember what their parents look like. When they meet their own troubles, they have no one to talk with. Nobody gives them enough care.
Because of being too far away from their parents, the left-behind children’s study is the second biggest problem. From a survey about their study, only two percent of the children get good results, while ten percent of them are common and eighty-eight percent of them are poor. What a pity!
There are also many other problems of the left-behind children, such as having no ability to protect themselves, unhealthy lifestyles, spending too much pocket money and too much time on the Internet and so on.
