True or false? Only old women knit.
Not
anymore！Knitting has now become a
fashionable hobby with women in their 20s and 30s. Young women can be seen
knitting in coffee shops, hairdressers, bookstores, and bus stops, and
Hollywood stars like Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz, Madonna, and Gwyneth Paltrow
all knit. They are knitting scarves, hats, socks, and sweaters—even bikinis and wedding dresses!
Knitting is being called the "new yoga". It is very relaxing and is the perfect hobby for our busy, stressful, 21st-century lives. It slows down your heart and lowers your blood pressure. Lissy Blomster, a 25-year-old buyer from New York, says "I come home from work mad and stressed almost every day. But after 30 to 45 minutes of knitting, I'm totally relaxed. " Jenny Carter, a 32-year-old advertising executive from Seattle, always knits through her lunch break. "It helps me clear my head and start fresh," she says.
Even some men are taking up knitting. Dave White, a 33-year-old IT manager from San Francisco, started knitting six months ago, after a woman friend introduced him to it. " I like knitting because I can go into my own little world and forget about my problems," he says. But he has not told any of his men friends that he knits, and he never knits in public. Brian Duffey, however, a 26-year-old student from Chicago, said, "I knit anywhere, everywhere. I have never had a negative comment… in fact, I find it attracts women. "

To most of us, school means classes, teachers, schedules,
grades and tests. But for the children at Sudbury Valley School in
Massachusetts, school is very different.
Firstly, there are no lessons. All the children, aged between 4 and 19, do whatever they want. There are no teachers, only “staff members”. The idea behind this is that you do not need to make children learn, because children want to learn anyway. “You do not need to say to a three-year-old, ‘Go explore your environment.’ You can’t stop them!”says Daniel Greenberg, a founder of the school. “But if you make children do what you want all day… they will lose all taste of learning.” At Sudbury Valley School, you will find children talking, reading, painting, cooking, working on computers, studying French, playing the piano, climbing trees, or just running around. Two boys spent three years just fishing!
The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children can decide the rules. Every week, there is a school meeting where both children and staff have one vote (投票)each—even the four-year-olds. They decide the school rules, how to spend the school money, and even which staff they want and do not want anymore.
When the school first opened in 1968, people said it would never work. But today, the school has 200 students, and 80% of its students go on to college. Even the two boys who went fishing all the time have successful careers today. One of them is a musician and the other is a computer scientist.

A. learn best when they are doing what they want
B. are too young to learn anything by themselves
C. can look after themselves without any help
D. can't go to college without any hard work
