Children’s schooling is changing very fast． In the past, teachers kept children sitting still for hours． They made them memorize（記�。� different kinds of things． In other words, the children had to go on repeating things until they knew them “by heart”． Today, many want to know if it’s possible to make children learn all．They say they can only help them learn． They say they must let children learn and find out things themselves．  

But for some children, school is a kind of prison（監(jiān)獄）．They are there only because their parents make them go．They get out of the classroom as soon as the teacher lets them leave．Many of them want to find work, but the law will not let them work until they reach a certain age．And so, they have to stay in school． Often they do not learn anything at all and hate school every moment．
