You can find the news in Chinadaily. I read it every day. Of course there are some other news websites. I think it is easy to log in those websites. I just select some short and interesting news for English learners to read. I hope these news reports can be of some help to them.

Morning Session Waived for Beijing Kids北京中小学生新学期取消早自习


Starting from the next semester（学期） in September, classes for students in Beijing's primary and secondary schools will start at no earlier than eight o'clock in the morning, according to a regulation released（颁布） by the municipal（市） education commission（教委） on Thursday.

To give students more time for sleep, the new regulation put a stop to the \"self-study class\" before 8 am, which used to be a routine（惯例） in most of the schools, the Beijing Times reports.

Considering some students are sent to school by their parents who have to go to work before 8 am, the school might organize physical exercises for the early arrivers.

Private car drivers drive less after fuel price hikes燃料油涨价，私家车减少使用

More than half of private car owners in China are thinking of driving their cars less as a result of fuel price hikes.

This means the roads may not be as clogged（拥挤） as before, which could also ease pollution.

The government raised the prices of gasoline and diesel（柴油） by 16-18 percent on June 20. Based on the adjustment, the price of No.93 gasoline has soared（涨） to 6.25 yuan per liter（升）, with a markup(涨幅) of 0.86 yuan, which has led to paying more at the pump（加油站） for car owners.
