will be helpful for you to keep your children safe in heavy traffic. Children learn about road safety by watching
others. Make sure that you always set good examples. Your children will follow you and think it"s OK to do
like you. Teach your children to pay attention to traffic lights when you cross the road together with them.
This helps them understand when it"s safe to cross. Make sure that you walk between your children and
traffic, and hold their hands all the time.
When your children are a little older, you can start to tell them the importance of traffic knowledge. Let
them start to understand the reasons why they need to be so careful. Talk with them about road signs and
traffic rules.
Ask your children to play in a safe place. Never let them ride bikes on the road without an adult present
at rush hour.
The most important thing you can do to keep your children from getting hurt is to encourage them to
follow traffic rules. After knowing about traffic rules, they"ll volunteer to obey them. In this way, they"ll be
careful enough to keep themselves away from danger.

We are often asked to make a speech in life. Most of us are afraid of it and don"t do a good job. Here are
some simple steps to make your speech a successful one. First of all,find out everything about your subject
and at the same time find out as much as you can about your audience. Who are they? What do they know
about your subject? Put yourself in their shoes as you prepare your speech. Then try to arrange your material
so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible. Never forget your audience.
Don"t talk over their heads or talk down to them. When you are giving your speech,speak slowly and clearly
and look at your audience. Pause for a few seconds from time to time to give your audience chance to think
over what you"ve said. Just remember: be prepared,know your subject and your audience,say what you have
to say and be yourself so that your ideas will bring you and your audience together.
B. listeners
C. viewers
D. trainers
B. follow the audience step by step
C. face the audience in a natural way
D. look up and down from time to time
B. How to Remember the Audience
C. How to Prepare the Material for a Speech
D. How to Pick Out the Topic for a Speech
aren"t real stars. They"re satellites, a machine that has been sent into space and goes around the Earth, moon,
etc. And the biggest of all is the International Space Station (ISS).
The ISS is the biggest satellite because scientists want to live on it. They think that the best way to learn
more about space is to live there. The space shuttle Discovery has taken off from the Kennedy Space Center
in Cape Canaveral, Florida several times and carried a few groups of astronauts to the International Space
Station.
When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with many
of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The ISS is the
most expensive space program ever. Millions and millions of dollars are being spent on it every year.
Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping stone for future space exploration. "The ISS will help us
better understand the human body, explore (know more about) space and study the earth. It can help us make
life on the earth better," said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist.
Sixteen countries are in the program: The US, Russia, Canada, Japan, Brazil and 11 European countries.
China is not an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments. In 2003, China sent some rice
up to the ISS to find out what space would do to it.
Twenty Chinese students talked directly to an astronaut (spaceman) in the International Space Station (ISS)
on radio in Nanjing, capital of east China"s Jiangsu Province on Sunday, 2007. The 20 students, aged 10 to 19
from Shanghai, Guangzhou and Nanjing, began talking to Clayton C. Anderson, a 48-year-old American
astronaut at 18:50 p.m. at Nanjing No. 3 Middle School when the ISS was passing over Nanjing.
After it"s finished, more than 90 percnt of the world"s population will be able to see the space station. So
keep looking up, and maybe you"ll see it get bigger and brighter.
B. some students from Nanjing have been to the ISS
C. China is one of the members in the ISS group
D. the ISS is still in the space but has stopped working
B. machines that go around the earth, the moon and some stars
C. buildings where electricity is produced to supply a large area
D. some countries which help send the ISS up into space
—Because they _______.
B. could talk with some Chinese school students
C. hoped to travel to Mars and Venus some day
D. wanted to live in space and do better research
enough to pass exams. Others didn"t do quite enough. Fred Baines was one of them. He spent more time
drinking in the Students" Union than working in the library.
Once at the end of the term, we had to take an important test in chemistry. The test had a hundred
questions. In my room the night before the test, Fred was watching TV. Fred usually worried a lot the night
before a test. But on that night he looked perfectly calm. Then he told me of his plan. "It"s very simple. There
are a hundred questions and I have to get fifty correct to pass the test. I"ll take a coin into the examination
room. I haven"t studied a chemistry book for months, so I"ll just toss the coin. That way, I"m sure I"ll get half
the questions right."
The next day, Fred came happily into the exam room. As he sat tossing a coin for half an hour he marked
down his answers. Then he left, half an hour before the rest of us.
The next day, he saw the chemistry professor in the corridor. "Oh, good," he said, "Have you got the result
of the test?" The professor looked at him and smiled, "Ah, it"s you, Baines. Just a minute." Then he reached
into his pocket and took out a coin. He threw it into the air, caught it in his hand and looked at it.
"I"m terribly sorry, Baines," he said, "You failed!"
B. there were too many questions for students to prepare for
C. good exam results needs hard study
D. tossing a coin can not always decide the result

Harry borrowed his father"s magazine when he needed a new computer. "I"ll read it and choose the
best one." He said.
The magazine described these computers.
| The DGT PC450 | The BNK 975XF: AT $3, 200 | The CGP 8PT |
 This computer comes with lots of good software. However it does not have much memory and is rather slow. At $2,850 it"s not very good value for money. |  This is the most expensive computer we tested. However it is also far the most reliable (可靠的). It is very fast and has lots of memory. It is worth the extra money if you can afford it. |  At only $1, 900. It has lots of money and is quite fast. However it broke down twice while we were testing it and we cannot recommend (建议) it for reliability. |

| We know that many animals do not stay in one place. Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another place at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded. When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration is probably the migration of fish, which is called "salmon"(鲑鱼).This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea. Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster (龙虾). Every year,when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go. So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another place,but at other times we don"t. Maybe living things just like to travel. | ||
