C． stay away from strangers
D． be aware of stranger danger
E． turn to trusted adult for help
F． keep family information in mind
Everyone wants their children to be safe, but many parents may wonder if they are doing all they can to ensure their child’s safety. By providing your children with some basic knowledge and information, you can equip them for possible future emergencies. Giving your children basic lessons in safety provides them with the tools they need to deal with safety problems in the future.
Your child should know his full name and address, as well as his home telephone number. Children who are school-aged should be able to remember this information easily. While you should advise your child never to share this information with a stranger, it can be useful if he is ever separated from you and needs to tell the police who he is and to whom he belongs.
Teach your child that he should never speak to anyone he doesn’t know, Unless you are near him. Do not scare him into believing that every adult he meets out is to hurt him. Simply warn him that he should be careful and never go anywhere or share personal information with an adult he doesn’t know.
If your family faces an emergency such as a natural disaster, you need a plan to organizing your efforts. You should practice this plan with your child for several situation. For example，you need to determine where your family reunite if some members are away from home during an emergency, and where inside your home you will go if a disaster strikes.
If your child is particularly shy, he may be afraid of all adults who aren’t known to him. Unfortunately, this can extend to helpful adults, such as doctors, police officers and fire fighters. Teach your child about the people who may help him in an emergency, and help him be comfortable around those people so that he will ask for help if he needs it.
If you allow your child to use the Internet, teach him to use safely. Do not allow him go into chat rooms or use other online forums to discuss personal information with strangers. If he has a social networking site page, such as Facebook or MySpace, make sure he only adds real friends lists, not strangers. Never let him meet anyone in person if he only met them online.

Britain’s high streets are dying slowly
Twenty years ago, the prosperous high street(繁华商业区) was the heart of most cities．It was crowded with customers．Nowadays, high streets are declining, with very few shops and shoppers．With about 14 shops down every day, Britain’s high streets are dying little by little.
It’s fairly easy to understand．To start with, people are spending less because of the economic recession(衰退)．On top of that, more and more people are using the Internet to do their shopping．And it is not easy for shopkeepers in the high streets, either．
Finally, there are the out-of-town retail parks with free car parking that sell just about everything at very low prices.
What can be done? Prime Minister David Cameron has hired Mary Portas, a British business woman and star of TV show Mary Queen of Shops, to bring some life back into Britain’s high streets．She’s talked about creating “magnets(磁石)” to attract people back to the centre． In one town, a bicycle rickshaw(人力车) service is delivering people’s shopping to their homes．
where children can be cared for while parents are shopping.
Members of the public have also voiced their opinions．“My ideal shopping center is one where there’s a wide selection of attractive looking shops, with cheap parking and good public transport links,” said a 28-year-old man．“I’d like to see Night Shopping evenings where shops are open through to 10 pm or later,” said a 22-year-old girl.
| A．They have to pay increasing high rents. |
| B．But he is not the only one to solve the problem. |
| C．But that’s all changed. |
| D．In another town, they set up night shopping centers, |
E． In another town, they set up a nursery,
F． They can make a fortune overnight.
G． Why are high streets in such a desperate situation?
The tradition of birthday parties started in Europe a long time ago. It was feared that evil spirits were particularly attracted to people on their birthdays. Giving gifts brought even more good cheer to keep away from the evil spirits. This is how birthday parties began.
The following are some countries’ birthday traditions:
Canada —Greasing the nose with butter. In Atlantic Canada, the birthday child’s nose is greased for good luck.
China — .The birthday child pays respect to his/her parents and receives a gift of money. Friends and relatives are invited to lunch and noodles are served to wish the birthday child a long life.
England —Fortune telling cakes. Certain symbolic objects are mixed into the birthday cake as it is being prepared.
Italy —Pulling ears. The child’s ears are pulled as many times as how old they are turning.
Japan —New clothes. The birthday child wears entirely new clothes mark the occasion.
New Zealand— .After the birthday cake is lit, the happy birthday song is sung loudly and often out of tune and then the birthday person receives a clap for each year they have been alive and then one for good luck．
The United States —Cake, candles and song.
| A．A cake is made, and candles are put on top based on how old the person is. |
| B．In China, on a child’s second birthday, family members put many things on the floor around the child. |
| C．If your piece of cake has a coin in it, then you will be rich. |
| D．To protect them from harm, friends and family would come to stay with the birthday person and bring good thoughts and wishes. |
E. Noodles for lunch.
F. The tradition of birthday parties started a long time ago.
G. Birthday claps.
A. Develop a good attitude about tests
B. Plan your time carefully
C. Find a good place to study
D. Study regularly
E. Make good use of your time in class
F. Make sure of time for entertainment
________________________
When you arrange your week, you make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time, such as your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for ertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.
_________________________
The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t overly worry.
_________________________
When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what the teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
_________________________
Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
_________________________
Look around the house for a good area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.

Are You Ready to Make a Lifestyle Change?
When it comes to weight loss, the words you might hear are: lifestyle and changes. But, if it were that simple, I'd be out of a job and you'd be too busy working out to read this.Losing weight takes hard work and that often means changing different aspects of your life like, how you spend your time, how you schedule your day, and how/what you eat.
What's Your Lifestyle Like?
So what is a healthy lifestyle? The typical components include not smoking, eating healthy foods, exercising and keeping the body at a healthy weight. First, figure out how much time you spend doing the following:
Sitting at a desk
Sitting in front of a computer
Drinking alcohol
Eating fast food or junk foods
Staying up late/not getting enough sleep
Now, How Much Time Do You Spend?
Being active in general (taking the stairs, walking instead of driving, gardening, cleaning, etc. )
Doing cardio exercise
Strength training for all muscle groups with challenging weights
Tracking your calories
Sleeping
Dealing with stress in a healthy way
Living healthy means spending time and energy on your body-moving it around and paying attention to what you put into it. Staying in an unhealthy lifestyle means you can avoid expending energy, time and effort. Choosing Health
As humans, we like habits and routines so much that we often keep doing the same things even when we know they aren't good for us. Changing bad habits takes time and effort. For example, what time you get up each morning.

| B．How you spend your free time |
| C．For a healthy lifestyle, you may be changing a variety of things. |
| D．It may seem like losing weight is a simple goal-do some exercise, go on a diet! |
E. The reason why lifestyle is so important is that it determines how healthy you are.
F. Losing weight takes hard work and that often means changing different aspects of your life.
G. If you spend more time doing the things in the first list than the second, it's time to change your lifestyle.

Attitudes Wired in Happy and Successful Brains
I’ve carefully examined happy and successful people from all different professions —actors, scientists, comedians, musicians, etc. They share very similar philosophies. Here are some of the fundamental attitudes and beliefs that contribute to their happiness and success:
◆ ①
This is one of the most commonly recited mottos in self-improvement. Individuals who see their mistakes and failures as a learning experience are much more prone to happiness and success.
When we adopt the belief that “failure is a part of learning,” we become more resilient and courageous in the face of new challenges.
Instead of avoiding situations where we may embarrass ourselves, we embrace these challenges in life, even when we know they can be risky and painful. When we do fail, we don’t see it as the end of the world, but a point to improve upon.
◆ ②
Many people are great at finding problems and being critical about their lives; however, they do this without ever suggesting a possible solution or alternative to their situation.
They complain about this and that, but they never take an active role to actually improve these things. They focus on problems not to learn from them or fix them, but to make excuses for why their lives are miserable and unpleasant.
I believe acknowledging problems in life is important. I don’t recommend that we ignore things in our life that disturb us or make us unhappy. However, it’s also important to think of ways we can actually respond to these problems and change our circumstances.
Ruminating over problems in our life without a plan to take action is not only a waste of time, but it makes us even more sad and depressed. If you’re going to be critical about something in your life, focus on the ways you can actually make a difference.
◆ ③
Happy and successful people are incredibly grateful for their lives and everything they have: their relationships, their home, their job, their possessions, their talents, their achievements, etc.
Although successful people are often thought of as always hungry and striving – always trying to improve things, achieve their goals, and make things better – this inner drive doesn’t take away from the fact they are very happy and content with their lives.
Gratitude is an irreplaceable characteristic of true happiness and success. Even if we achieve great things in life, without gratitude we often find ourselves empty and discontent. Make sure you take the time to reflect on how lucky you are as a person (I believe everyone can find something to be grateful for).
◆ ④
Happy and successful individuals know that we can learn a lot from other happy and successful individuals. Having peopled to look up to is a great resource for learning the beliefs and habits that contribute to other people’s success, and then modeling those beliefs and habits in our own lives.
If you want to improve a particular area of your life, then find a couple of people who already excel in that area of life. Study them. Ask them questions. Have them show you their technique and share their stories.
The more willing you are to learn from others, the more successful you will be. Talking and listening to others is one of the best ways to get more perspective into what you want to improve in life — and how you can do it.

Most of you love watching movies. They can be funny, sad, imaginative, inspiring, and so much more! There are so many possibilities and so many great movies to watch!
The making of a movie usually begins with a script (剧本). The producer is the person who is responsible for coordinating(协调) aspects of the film like budget and scheduling. The producer plans out how the project will be carried out and he usually starts by hiring a director!
The director will usually identify themes or feelings that he or she wants the movie to convey to its audience and will then assemble(聚集) all the other people who will be needed, such as costume-designers, makeup artists, special effects crew, stuntmen, cameramen, and, of course, actors!
Next, shooting begins! Often a director will want to get several “takes” (versions) of a scene or moment and usually only a few minutes of the movie are finished in one day’s work.
So once filming is completed, the director must then work with editors to piece them all together, deciding which takes to use and adding in any special effects or touch-ups.
The entire process from acquiring the script to editing the scenes generally takes months or even years! Once it’s ready, the finished movie is then distributed to movie theatres.
| A．Scenes are also usually not shot in order. |
| B．The actual filming can be a slow process. |
| C．The way that movies are made has changed a lot over time. |
| D．It gets bought by a movie studio or a producer. |
E. The producer plays a very important role in making a movie.
F. In movies, the director’s job is to bring the script to life on camera.
G. People can watch and enjoy it in the theatre.
