13．　　Do you know how to cook, clean or grow plants?If not, you will soon. These will be part of labor (劳动) education starting this autumn.
　　A new standard for labor education recently came out. Students in primary and middle school will have at least one labor education class a week. They will try and experience different kinds of labor and learn different life skills and even job skills. The standard includes different tasks for each grade. For example, students in Grade 5 and Grade 6 will learn to cook two or three common dishes, like fried eggs or egg soup with tomatoes.
　　Labor education can enrich Chinese students' life. Chinese school education didn't pay enough attention to this in the past. According to a 2019 report, Chinese kids only do 12 minutes of practical activity each day.
　　The new standard also calls on families to take part in students' labor education. They will make housework lists to help students be more independent.
　　Besides housework skills, students will have a chance to try new technologies like 3 D printing. They will also learn to make traditional handicrafts (手工艺品).

14．　　In ancient China, willow branches (柳枝) were often used as a gift to friends and family members who would leave. Do you know why willow branches are a symbol of saying goodbye?
　　One reason is that willow trees are strong. They can live in any soil, wet or dry, north or south. Because of this special feature, when saying goodbye to loved ones, giving a willow branch is a way to tell them you hope they will easily get used to their new living environment.
　　Another reason is that, in Chinese, the pronunciation for the willow tree "柳" is similar to the character "留". So giving a willow branch in ancient China was like asking the others to stay, even though you know that they must leave.
　　It's said that this custom became popular during the Han Dynasty. At that time, Baqiao, a bridge in Chang'an, today's Xi'an, was a common place to say goodbye. People often stopped there and handed willow branches to people who were going to depart.
　　Willow branches, as a symbol of saying goodbye, were often mentioned in poems, especially at the time of the Tang and Song dynasties.
