It seems that food deliverymen （送货员） are always rushing in haste.We can always see them running every minute，and they seem to have lots of things to do the next minute.They wear blue，red or yellow helmets （头盔） and many of them don't follow traffic rules.They drive on the wrong side of the road and run red lights.They use mobile phones when they are driving.
However，not everything goes well with food deliverymen.In the first half of 2017，food deliverymen had 76 traffic accidents in Shanghai.That means every two and a half days，a food deliveryman will die or get hurt on the road.
What makes deliverymen take such risks？The strict rules of the food delivery companies and the worried customers may be the answer.Many companies will fine （罚款） a deliveryman up to 2，000 yuan if he can't deliver the food on time，reported China Daily.Fines also go to those who get bad reviews from customers.
To solve the problem，food delivery service companies need to do some changes.Some cities are also taking action.Shanghai has asked companies to train their deliverymen on traffic rules and safety.Now in Shenzhen，if a deliveryman breaks traffic rules more than twice，then he can't do the job for a whole year.

Can a green machine help the world's poorest kids learn better？Nicholas Negroponte thinks so.He and his team of scientists have invented a new type of computer.As a result，many children who live in poverty （贫穷） will have their own laptop computers!
Negroponte works at a university.He started a group called One Laptop Per Child （OLPC）.The people at OLPC don't work for money.They work to help children learn.OLPC makes computers that don't cost a lot.Then they sell the machines to governments of countries that have many people live in poverty.The governments then give the computes to kids for free.

An elephant and a crocodile were once standing beside river． They were disputing which was the better animal．
"Look at my strength， "said the elephant． "I can pull up a tree， roots and all， with my trunk．"
"Ah! But your skin is not nearly so thick as mine， "replied the crocodile． "No knife or tooth can cut through it．"
Just as they were coming to blows， a lion happened to pass．
"My dear friends !" said the King of all animals， going up to them． "Let me know the cause of your disagreement．"
"Will you kindly tell us which is the better animal？ "cried both at once．
"Certainly， "said the lion， pointing across the river． "Do you see the soldiers metal hat on that wall？"
"Yes! "replied the beasts．
"Well， then， "continued the lion， " go and get it， and bring it to me， and I shall be able then to decide between you．"
Upon hearing this， off they started．The crocodile， being used to the water， reached the opposite side of the river first， and was soon standing beside the wall．
Here he waited till the elephant came up． The elephant， seeing that the crocodile had no way of reaching their goal， raised his long trunk， and took down the hat quite easily．
They then made their way together back again across the river． The elephant was trying to keep up with the fast﹣moving crocodile in the water and became careless． When he was forced to turn sharply to avoid a floating tree branch， the elephant dropped the hat and it fell to the river bottom． The crocodile noticed the accident， so down he dived， and brought it up in his huge mouth． They then returned， and the crocodile laid the metal hat at the lion's feet． The King took it up， and turning to the elephant， said："You， because of your size and trunk， were able to reach the hat on the wall but， having lost it，you were unable to get it back． And you， said the lion to the crocodile， "although unable to reach the hat， were able to dive for it and save it． You are both wise and able in your own ways． One is no better than the other．"

When Claire Vlases of Montana was in Grade 7， she learned about plans to modernize her middle school． Claire asked the school board（董事会）to add solar panels to the project because， she explained， clean energy would be helpful to a really modern school．

Have you ever heard the phrase "You never get a second chance to make a first impression（印象）"？ It may sound like an unusual piece of advice，but it is true﹣the first impression someone has of you when meeting you for the first time will probably influence how that person treats you or reacts to you in the future．
What is even more interesting is that the brain takes in all the information to create that first impression in about three seconds．When you meet someone for the first time，by the time you have stated your name or shaken hands，the other person has already formed an opinion about the kind of person you are．
So how do you make a good first impression？All things grown up tell you such as being polite，and being well﹣dressed are very important．However，the most important tool for making a good first impression is your face．
Smiling，being responsive，and looking like you are happy will almost always leave a positive（积极的）impression on people，especially those who do not know you．Most people，generally speaking，are ready to smile back when they are smiled at．
Furthermore，smiling and being in a positive mood helps you to know and get a better understanding of new things．This means that you can possibly be friendlier to people you do not know and be more creative and able to solve problems more quickly．So if you ever need a reason to be happy，think about the wonderful people you might meet and impress with a cheerful smile．
