The first thing that worries Xiao Hua is where to find food. The 14yearold student says that she knows little about cooking. ―The only thing I can make to fill my stomach is tomato and egg soup, and I think many of my classmates are the same, ‖ she said. Although she believes that basic(基礎(chǔ) )living skills such as cooking and washing clothes are a must in creating a selfmade person, the girl doesn’t think teenagers are given enough opportunities to practice. ―I would like to learn in summer holidays before I enter high school.

It has interested many students and Xiao Ming wishes he had time to take it. ―I’m afraid it’s too much for most of the students because as far as I know, few have simple kitchen knowledge,‖ he said.
