    {#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.

    It's difficult when you have no good friends around - maybe because you have moved toa different school or a different class or you re sick at home.没有朋友你也许会感到寂寞。You want to have new friends. But how to make them? How do you start? How do you get along with people? Here are five ways to help you to do these.

    Greet(闾候)people

    Greet people and hope that they have a good day - whatever time of day it is. It doesn't hurt any people. It also makes people think you're friendly.

    Share

    Take something to eat in your pocket. Ask if people would like to have some, and at the same time hand it to them.

    Help people

    Simple actions, like helping people carry something or opening a door show yourkindness.

    Smile

    Perhaps smiling is the easiest way to introduce yourself. There's a great reason why ittakes fewer muscles(肌肉)to smile than to cry. Nature just wishes us to smile more.

    Respect(尊敬)others

    The world's full of differences. So learn to respect others. It is the only way otherpeople will respect you.

    I'm Andy. I study at a school in Beijing. There are lots of rules(条例) in my school. We have to wear school uniforms every day, and we can't wear rings. We can't arrive late for school. We can't talk in class. After class, we can't run in the hallways. I can follow most of them, but I can't follow some.

    My cousin Mike is in a school in the USA. In his school, students can't bring alcohol(酒) to school Students can't smoke. Students can't colour their hair, and boys can't have long hair. It's easy for Mike to follow them.

    My e-friend Julie studies in a school in Canada. In her school, students can't eat in the classroom. They can't listen to music in class. Julie thinks she can obey these rules.

    We don't like some of the rules, but most of the rules can help us and we have to follow the rules.

    It was a beautiful spring（春天） morning. There wasn't a cloud in the sky, and the sun was warm but not too hot. So Mr. Andrews was surprised when he saw an old man at the bus-stop with a big umbrella in his hand.

    Mr. Andrews said to him, “Do you think it's going to rain today?”

    “No,” said the old man, “I don't think so.”

    “Then are you carrying the umbrella because the sun is too hot?”

    “No, the sun is not very hot in spring.”

    Mr. Andrews looked at the big umbrella again, and the man said, “I am an old man, and my legs are not very good, so I really need a walking-stick (拐杖). But people will say, 'Look at that poor old man', and I don't like that. When I carry an umbrella in fine weather, people only say, 'Look at that stupid（愚蠢的）man'.”

    We all have our own ways of sharing our life experiences with others.

    Photographers use cameras, artists use brushes, musicians use songs and writers use stories.

    Spencer Johnson's story Who Moved My Cheese? shows changes exist in(存在于) our life. Life changes and so do we. We must change ourselves to face the changing environment, or we will fail.

    Just look at the cycle (循环) of        Trees bud (发芽)in spring and in summer their leaves turn green. In autumn, their leaves start to fall onto the ground. When winter arrives, there are no leaves on trees. Next spring the cycle begins again. Since we know there are cycles in nature, we can prepare for them. We know it is colder in winter and hotter in summer, so we can dress properly.

    Since we accept the cycles of nature, we should also accept the changes in our life.

    We can prepare ourselves for changes by becoming more flexible(灵活的).We can regard the changes in our life as chances. As long as we keep changing ourselves, we can keep up with the changes in our life.
