   Do you have a QQ number? Many people like to chat online using QQ. QQ has become the most popular way of communication(交流).It even changes the way people communicate with each other. Do you know who invented QQ? Let me tell you. QQ was invented by Ma Huateng.
   Ma Huateng was born in 1971. （1）When he was very young, he showed a great interest in astronomy.（天文学） However, he chose to learn computer when he entered Shenzhen University in 1989. （2）In his eyes, computer science was closer to everyday life compared to (与…相比) astronomy. He worked hard and became the best student in his class. He was popular among students and teachers at school.

（3）He worked as a computer programmer in a company in Shenzhen for five years . Then he started his own company in 1988. It was difficult at the beginning and he had to work hard every day.(4) After he invented QQ,  his business got better and better. It is said that now there are at least three hundred million people using QQ. To be honest, the number of QQ users is getting larger and larger. (5) It is a wonder, isn't it?

    Think about the distance（距离） you traveled in the last six months of your life. About how many miles（kilometers） did you go? Lucid went quite a distance. On March 22, 1996, she started a journey. She traveled 188 days, 4 hours, and 14 seconds in total. This is a little over six months. So what distance did Lucid travel? She went 75.2 million miles（1,203,200,000 kilometers）!

    How could Lucid go so far? How could she journey so fast? Lucid was an American astronaut and she was in space. She lived on a space station. The space station was the Russian space station Mir. She lived and worked with two Russian astronauts.

    On Mir, it was hard for Lucid to know what day it was. Why? Mir. did not stay in one place. It orbited the Earth. It went around the Earth. Mir's orbit meant that darkness did not mean the day was over. Darkness fell many times during a 24-hour period. Darkness fell about every 45 minutes. Lucid did something to help her remember what day it was. She wore pink socks on every seventh day. The pink socks reminded Lucid about something else, too. The pink socks helped Lucid remember that Jell-O would be served for dinner. On Mir, Jell-O was a special treat. It was only served on Sunday.

    Lucid worked hard to deserve the honor of working on Mir. She went to school for a long time. She was one of the first six women to be accepted into the astronaut-training program. She flew on several American missions. When accepted for Mir, she had to learn Russian in less than 18 months. On Mir, Lucid conducted many experiments. One experiment she conducted was with wheat. Lucid grew wheat. Growing plants in space was important, because green plants could provide oxygen and food for space travelers.

    May 12th, 2018 is the 10^th anniversary of Wenchuan Earthquake. Many of us may have remembered what happened on May 12th, 2008. The devastating 7.9 magnitude Sichuan earthquake which killed about 90, 000 people in western China. It has been concerned(担忧) widely about what we can do when we encounter(遭遇) certain accidents. Therefore, how to deal with accidents in our daily life?

    Earthquake is the first thing that I am going to talk about. Firstly, you need to rush to open space quickly if you are in a lower floor. Meanwhile, you should avoid trees or wires around you. On the contrary (相反), you need to stay in a corner which seems firm if you are in a higher building. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}You should keep your body safe and wait for others to help you.

    When it comes to fire, you need to distinguish the root of the fire and find out security exits. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}Then you should crawl (爬行)on the floor. Do not use elevators or any electronic equipments.

    Another accident is drowning. Every summer, about 5, 000 kids die because of swimming alone in the river or the lake. Experts say that we have the more possibilities of drowning if we struggle as possible as we can. So what we should do is: “{#blank#}3{#/blank#}” The summer holiday is coming. My dear friend, take care of yourself.

    In a word, all kinds of accidents will happen in our daily life. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}We should believe that the rate of danger can be minimized(机会少)and we can not only get a chance to save ourselves but also help more others if we learn about how to deal with them in the first place.

A. The most necessary thing is to keep calm and find the exact way

B. Do not be a jumper!

C. To take a deep breath, lie on the water and wait for others to save us.

D. The best way is to cover your nose and mouth with a wet towel.

    Reading makes one wise, but many adults seldom read. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Sure. They have work to do. They have families to support. But these are only excuses. The fact is that they haven't got a reading habit. A reading habit isn't something natural. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} And it's never too late to develop a reading habit.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} A book in rich colors and with simple patterns(图案)such as lines and circles is a good choice for babies of three months old. When they reach six months, they will become interested in simple story books in rich colors.

    When children get old enough to read by themselves, it's necessary to buy books that are both interesting and right for them to understand. Books which are either too easy or too difficult are not good for kids to keep their reading habits.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#} For kids, parents are their first teachers. So parents should read books to set an example. Children will follow them. Scientists say imitating the adults is a born skill. And it is the most valuable way for children to learn. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} 

    It's hard to make friends if you stay at home all the time, so get out of the house and do things that will put you in touch with(接触)other people. It's easier to make friends with them when you find you like the same things as other people.

Don't be afraid to show people what you're really good at. You can talk about the things you like and do best. People will be interested in you if they, hear something interesting about you.

    Look at people in your eyes when you talk to them. That way, they'll find it easier to talk to you, or people may think you're not interested in them and may stop being interested in you.

    Be a good listener. Let people talk about themselves before talking about "me, me, me” You can ask people lots of questions and show that you are interested in their answers.

    Try to make friends with the kind of people you really like, respect(尊敬)and admire(羡慕). You shouldn't just make friends with those people you will meet them easily. Try to be friendly with all kinds of people. That way, you'll have a bigger group of people to choose from. Then you'll be easier to make friends with other people.
