If you want to do a school project on children’s rights, you can look on the Internet for some information. A United Nations website can show you plenty of useful information for the project.
The United Nations lists the rights of children. Most countries agree all of them, but some countries do not. The following are some of the most important rights of children:
Children have the right to be properly fed, clothed and sheltered by their family. If their family can’t do so, the government should take responsibility.
Children have the right to an education and medical care, which should be provided by the government.
Children must not be cruelly punished by their parents or any others.
Children have the right to expect the government to protect them from all kinds of abuse and neglect(虐待和忽略).
No child under fifteen should be made to fight in an army.
Children have the right to be protected from being made to work too hard to make money for other people.
In some countries children do not have these rights. Many young children are made to work long hours in factories and on farms. In some countries there are so few schools that only rich children get an education. There are not enough doctors or nurses to help many children when they are sick.

Do you want to know something about the history of weather? Don't look at the sky. Don't look for old weather reports. Looking at tree rings is more important. Correct weather reports date back only one century, but some trees can provide an exact record of the weather even further back.
It is natural that a tree would grow best in a climate with plenty of sunlight and rainfall. It is also expected that little sunlight or rainfall would limit the growth of a tree. The change from a favorable to an unfavorable climate can be determined by reading the pattern of rings in a tree trunk. To find out the weather of ten years ago, count the rings of a tree trunk from the outside to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the other rings, then it is certain that plenty of sunny and rainy weather occurred. If the rings are close together, then the climate was bad for the tree.
Studying tree rings is important not only for the history of weather, but also for the history of man. In a region of New Mexico you can find only sand--no trees and no people. However, many centuries ago a large population lived there. They left suddenly. Why?
A scientist studied patterns of dead tree rings which had grown there. He decided that the people had to leave because they had cut down all the trees. Trees were necessary to make fires and buildings. So, after the people destroyed the trees, they had to move.
In this instance studying tree rings uncovered an exciting fact about the history of man.
1.It is understood that in a favorable climate____________.
A.tree rings grow close together
B.tree rings grow far apart
C.trees in New Mexico will grow big and tall
D.people can cut down most of the trees in New Mexico
2.Why did ancient people usually live where there were plenty of trees?
A.Trees provided them with shades.
B.Trees indicated plenty of sunlight and rainfall.
C.Trees were materials for cooking and building houses.
D.Trees provided them with fruit and food.
3.Scientists are interested in studying tree rings because they can tell__________.
A.a lot about what happened in history.
B.whether a particular tree was healthy or not.
C.whether people took good care of the trees or not.
D.how old the trees were.
4.By studying the dead tree rings in Mexico the scientist found out____________.
A.where the people had to go
B.what the people had to eat
C.how the people left
D.why the people had to leave
5.The people had to leave the region of New Mexico because__________.
A.they had cut down all the trees
B.there were many trees there
C.they had no water
D.bad weather stopped the growth of trees
hildren are, therefore, the rights people think children should have. They are not always the rights children really have.
