Some Chinese parents are usually glad to see their children studying late. They will think their children work very hard, but not all parents are happy about this.

A report shows that without a good night’s sleep, students seem to be weaker (虚弱) than they should be. Many students have fallen asleep during class at one time or another. Too much homework is not the only reason why students stay up late. Some watch TV or play the computer games late into the night.
