What would you do if a stranger gave you some medicine and it would keep you slim or help you do
well in exams? Would you take it?
Students at Shenzhen Luohu Foreign Language Middle School have learned to keep themselves safe
by saying "no". In fact, what those strangers want to give them are drugs (毒品). Drugs are dangerous
to your health!
"Because teens don"t know much about drugs, they might want to try them," said Zhang Dongsheng,
the director of Shenzhen Drug Control Office.
Now, many schools arrange courses or organize some activities to help students know about drugs.
Liang, 16, was a good student before trying drugs. One day, some old friends told him it would be
fun. After taking drugs only once, he found it very hard to stop. Liang began to spend all his time and
money on drugs. Soon, he stopped going to school and started stealing. In the end, he was put in prison.
In China, taking drugs is becoming a big problem for teens. According to a survey, about one million
people in China were using illegal drugs last year, and 72% of them were young people. Worse still, there
are about10,000 drug users under 16 now.
Zhang has some good advice on staying clean. He said, "Drugs are dangerous. Never try them, even
if you"re curious! It is the most important for you to keep safe and healthy." |

Anne and Joseph are talking about an interesting question. Why do some people change their names?
There can be many reasons. Hanna changed her name to Anne because she thought it would be easier
for people to remember. On the other hand, Joseph is thinking about changing his name to an unusual
name because he wants to be different.
People have a lot of reasons for changing their names. Film stars, singers, sportsmen and some other
famous people often change their names because they want names that are not ordinary (普通的), or
that have special sound. They chose the "new name" for themselves instead of the name their parents
gave them when they were born.

want to use a name that is usual there. For example, Li Kaiming changed his name to Ken Lee when he
moved to the United States. He uses the name Ken at his job and at school. But with his family and
Chinese friends, he uses Li Kaiming. For some people, using different names makes life easier in their
new country.

what do you do? You can hit the "unfriend" button (操作框) and remove (移走) him or her from your friend list. That means you won"t talk, exchange information, or see each other"s updates (更新) on the website any more.

If you are in a town in western country, you"ll often see people walking with their dogs. It is still true that a
dog is the most useful animal in the world, but the reason why one keeps a dog has changed. Once upon a time, a man met a dog and wanted it to help him in the fight against other animals, and he found that the dog listened
to him and did what he told to. Later people used dogs for the hunting of other animals, and the dogs did not eat what they got until their master agreed. So dogs were used for driving sheep and guarding chickens.
But now the people in the towns and cities do not need dogs to fight against other animals. Of course they
keep them to frighten thieves, but the most important reason is that people feel lonely in the city. For a child, a
dog is his best friend when he has no friends to play with. For a young wife, a dog is her child when she doesn"t
have her own. For old people, a dog is also a child when their real children have grown up and left. Now people
do not have to use a dog, but they keep it as a friend, just like a member of the family. |
