六、阅读短文，回答问题
To welcome spring, the students and teachers from Yuelu District planted trees on TreePlanting Day. For middle and primary school students, labour(劳动) has become a must. They will also need to learn how to cook, wash clothes and keep the house in order under the new law for labour education.
The Ministry of Education(教育部) brought out a new rule for labour education in 2022.According to the new rule, students in primary and middle schools have to take classes on labour skills at least once a week. The new rule includes three kinds of labour tasks. The first is for things like everyday chores, including cleaning, organizing and cooking. Next is creative labour,such as making hand-made works and using new technologies. The third is service work which includes volunteer work.
Schools in China have traditionally paid more attention to studying, and many have seen chores as a waste of children's time. But according to the MOE, labour education must be built up because labour classes at school can help students be active, creative and happy in life.
Online, people have been busy discussing the new rule. Xie Yun, a mother of a junior middle school student in Changsha, strongly supports labour education. For the past years, she has trained her son to do chores and make simple dishes for the family.
“Through doing housework, their eye-hand coordination(手眼协调), time management and organization skills can be trained and it's also good to help them relax.” Through such education,Xie thinks her son has found fun in doing chores and is more independent.
