There are so many cars on the roads that all the children must know how to keep safe in the cars. Here is some advice on how to keep safe in the car.

It doesn't matter if your family car is old or new, research about car accidents shows that the front passenger seat is the most dangerous. Even if your car is new and it has airbags for the driver and the passenger of the front seat there are still dangers for kids. Airbags protect the chest of an adult but it can be at face for a child. So where's the safest place for kids to sit? It's the back seat.

Research shows that wearing a seat belt(安全带) is the best way to avoid serious hurt. Seat belts should be made to fit the person using them. Kids can be hurt in an adult seat belt because they are small and the belt could come up round their neck or face. The best way to solve this problem is to set up a special seat belt for the kids in each car. The kids should sit on the kid seat in the car.

（1）、The underlined sentence "It doesn't matter if your family car is old or new" probably means ________.

A、new car can cause accidents easily B、old car can also cause accidents C、new car is more comfortable than the old car D、new car is the same as old car in accidents

（2）、The safest seat in a car for a kid is ________.

A、the left seat B、the right seat C、the back seat D、the front seat

（3）、Why is there a kid seat in each car?

A、Because kids can have fun on it. B、Because the seat belt for it is right for kids. C、Because kids can see outside clearly on it. D、Because the seat is very hard and strong for the kids.

（4）、Which part of a newspaper may this passage come from?

A、Traffic. B、Science. C、Sports. D、Medicine.

Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too, but if you have questions about how tall you're going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out.
But genes don't decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential(潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.
No doubt you're wondering how fast you should grow. It depends. There's no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about 2 inches (6 centimeters) a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up).
Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. Two centimeters here and 2 inches there are not nearly as important as the height you're at now, how you've been growing up to this point, and what other changes your body may be going through.
Don't be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt（高峰）during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later —-between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys.
You'll usually begin to notice that you're growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty.

The scientists from the Lockheed Space Company (公司) work in Felton, California, with the help of a computer. But the computer is placed in Sunnyside, about 80 kilometers away. What the scientists input is sent by telephone lines to the computer, and after a time, copies of the designs are needed back in Felton as possible. Lockheed people have tried several ways of sending the prints (印刷品), but the most effective seems to be by pigeon (鸽子). Are pigeons really used to carry messages in these days? They are, and they send the prints faster and cheaper than any other way.
Human (人类的) messengers (persons carrying messages) are much more expensive and slower than the pigeons. The road to Felton goes through the mountains, and the driving is not easy. An electronic printout system(电子印刷系统) could do the work in Felton, but at a cost of 10 dollars a print. Pigeons carry the designs for about 1 dollar each.
Now Lockheed people have ten pigeon messengers. The pigeons do the work, and they have made Lockheed more famous. You can often read the news about the pigeons in the newspapers around the world

Always forgetting your long passwords(密码)? Worried about being hacked(被攻击)?All these worries will soon become history. Scientists have found that upper-casing(大写)your password can help you reduce the chance being hacked.
Usually passwords are six letters or more.However,50 percent of people choose a common word or simple key combination for their password. The most used passwords are 123456, abcdef and abc123. In fact, if your passwords are in lower-case(小写),it will be easily hacked by a hacker. According to a study, it only takes a hacker ten minutes to hack a six-letter password which is in lower-case, but if you make the letter in upper-case, it can take up to ten hours. So if you want to make your account much safer, you should make your password upper-case. Of course, you can also add numbers or symbols to your password. Most of the time a hacker's computer has to work for 18 days to break a password, but if you choose a nine-letter password that includes numbers and symbols, it can take a hacher's computer 44,530 years to break it.
