Have you taken a plane? Have you thought about the ways to survive(生存) in a plane crash(坠机)? Here are some tips for you. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#} .The key to survive on planes is how quickly you can get out. So it's best to get seats as close as possible to a door. Or try to sit in the back of the plane because passengers in the back seats are safer than those in the front.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} .First of all, read the safety information card and listen to the safety speech carefully. Every type of plane has different safety instructions. If you're sitting near a door, make sure you know how to open it if you need to. What's more, don't forget to keep your seat belt fastened(系牢) .

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}.When there is a fire, breathing smoke in is one of the main causes of death. So cover your nose and mouth with a cloth to avoid it.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}.Don't be too nervous and try to keep a cool head all the time. Remember that even in the worst situation, you still have a chance to be safe.

Dear Jack,

    Can you believe I'm in a school of 2030 now? The school is like a beautiful garden. The wall of our classroom is colorful. Our school life is interesting.

    In the morning, we have three classes. We study on the Internet. We use the e-books. The teachers are all robots. They are in different rooms and they can answer any questions. Our robot music teacher plays the guitar very well. In the afternoon, we take a plane to the Mars to have two classes. I make friends with aliens(外星人). They are friendly and know us well. After class, we play soccer with them. Then we go back to the earth. Don't you think the life in this school is very interesting?

    Students spend more time at school than anywhere else. At school, children need a safe and comfortable environment to help them learn. By doing the following, parents can help make sure children have a good school life.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. Ask your children if they see anyone bullied(被欺负), if they are bullied, or if anything else makes them feel uncomfortable. Look for warning signs, such as a sudden drop in grades or a loss of friends.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. Tell children that fighting could lead to them getting hurt, or hurting someone else. Tell them about other ways they can solve a problem, such as walking away or telling to teachers or the adult you know well.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Talk to your children about what they do online—what websites they visit, who they email, and who they chat with. Let them know they can talk to you if anything they see online makes them uncomfortable.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. Teach children to follow traffic lights and rules when walking or biking. Stress that they should cross the street at crosswalks.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. Don't go anywhere with them, or accept gifts from them when you don't know. If they see a stranger hanging around or in their school, they should tell the people that you know.

    Kevin loves to read mystery books. He likes to try to solve the mystery himself before he gets to the end. He also likes solving problems. Kevin can usually solve any mystery or problem.

    One day Kevin's mom was trying to find her glasses. Without her glasses, she could not drive. This was a problem because she was going to drive Kevin to his friend's house. It was also a mystery. Kevin really wanted to solve it.

    "Where do you last remember seeing your glasses?" he asked his mom.

    "I had them on while I was watching the news this morning," she said.

    "Where were you watching the news?" asked Kevin.

    His mom thought for a minute, and then she answered that she was in the living room.

She remembered sitting in her favorite chair and taking off her glasses when the news ended. She thought she put her glasses on the table, but they weren't there.

    Kevin had his mom describe everything she remembered doing during the day. She mentioned watching the news, making breakfast, working in her home office and then gardening. It was after gardening that she started looking for her glasses.

    After hearing about his mom's day, Kevin began to take action. He looked under her favorite chair, in the kitchen, in her office and around the garden. He didn't find her glasses.

    Kevin doesn't give up easily, so he looked in each place again and he looked even harder. It was on his second go around of the kitchen that he thought to open the cabinets (储藏柜). He found his mom's glasses in the drawer (抽屉).

    "Thank you, Kevin," said his mom. "I wouldn't be able to see anything without you."

    There are lots of rules at Tim's school. He agrees with(赞同) some of them-For example, they can't arrive late; they can't run in the hallways; and they can't eat in class. All these rules are OK because they are reasonable(合理).

    But there are some rules Tim doesn't agree with. For example, at his school, they have to wear the uniform and they can't wear jeans. But Tim thinks jeans are good because they are comfortable. At school, they can't listen to music in art class. But most students think listening to music in art class is relaxing.

    Tim also has to follow some rules at home. If he wants to watch TV, he has to finish his homework first. And he can't go out with his friends on school nights, that is, from Monday to Friday. He also has to clean his room every week. But he doesn't have to take out the trash. (垃圾)
