They feel heavy pressures from their parents to do well in school. Most students are always being told by their parents to study harder so that they can have

20、 a wonderful life. Though this maybe good ideas for those very bright students ，it can have very bad results for many students who are not quick enough at learning.Unfortunately，a number of students killed themselves. Others are after comfort in using drugs .Some do bad things with troublemakers and

21、 turn to crime .Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have disappointed their parents. Such students feel that they are less important and leave school before they have finished their study.It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about th

22、eir children，they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers work to help their children. To make matters worse，a lot of parents send their children to special schools called jukucram schools. These schools are open during

23、 the evening and on weekends，and their only purpose is to prepare students to pass exams. They do not try to educate students in any real sense of the real world.

29、hind an organization ，you are responsible for developing or organizing it .Brain trust is a group of experts who give advice. Word experts say the phrase “brain trust” became popular when FranklinD Roosevelt first ran for president in 1932 .Several professors gave him advice on social and political
