At 5:05 pm on March 19, a loud alarm sounded around the playground of Tanghu Middle School, Sichuan. Students hurried to the playground with something covering their mouths. Don't worry. There wasn't a fire. Students were having a fire drill（演习）. School is a good place for students to study. Yet sometimes, it is easy to have accidents there.

A survey suggests that right safety training could prevent 80 percent of these accidents. In China, fire drills at school are common to teach students to deal with emergencies（紧急情况）. At the same time, many other countries have their own ways to keep children safe around school.

In Japan, public primary schools hold earthquake drills once a month. They teach students safety tips during an earthquake drill. The training teaches students to escape from earthquake-stricken areas without pushing and stampeding（踩踏）.

Most US school buildings have fire escapes on each floor. A fire escape has platforms with stairs and ladders. They are usually made of iron. Students can get to the fire escape through a fire exit door or a window.

In many middle schools in the UK, students can choose to take a bicycle course. There, they learn how to ride to school safely. Also, on roads without traffic lights near schools, there are crossing guards. They wear bright color clothes and stop cars to guide children across the road safely.

    There was a park near my home，but I didn't go there often．Many people said there was nothing special there．One afternoon I went into the park．I walked quickly because there wasn't much to see．{#blank#}1{#/blank#}“Which way should I go? ”I asked myself I looked at one path(小路)，then the other．I found that the two paths were different from each other．

    The left one was wide(宽阔的)and clean．{#blank#}2{#/blank#} Though the flowers weren't very beautiful-they made me feel good．I decided to take this path．But wait ! I looked at the right one．The path didn't look nice．It looked like it had not been cleaned for months．For a long time I couldn't decide which path to choose．

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}It wasn't nice，but I didn't want to give up．At last, I came to the end of the path．Ah! There was a small garden there．It'was beautiful．There were trees, flowers and chairs there．I thought it was the nicest part of the park．

    Many people told me that there was nothing much to see in the park．Now I' d like to tell them that if they had followed the right way, they would have felt differently．{#blank#}4{#/blank#}I knew they didn't believe me．They couldn't even remember that path because it was so small．

    My trip to the park made me understand something about life．{#blank#}5{#/blank#}You may get a big surprise!

①Jack let me play with his favorite toy car. I made it go too fast and it crashed(摔坏).  {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

②All my friends have many new clothes. But my parents can't afford them. I think it is a shame(遗憾的事).  {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

③My close friend always wants me to give him the answers in exams. But I really don't want to do that.  {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

④My friend Jenny always takes a walkman with her and listens to loud music. I think it may hurt her ears. But she doesn't seem to care.  {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

⑤Sam saw some bird eggs under a tree when we had a trip in the forest. He wanted to take them home. I stopped him. He was angry with me.  {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

A. Try to tell him it is wrong of you two to do that. Then try to help them with his lessons in your spare time.

B. Tell him that he is doing something bad to animals. If he takes the eggs home, how will their mother feel when she can't find them?

C. You can get some examples from papers, magazines or TV shows, and let her know it's really bad.

D. Say sorry to him first. And try to repair it. Or you may give him your favorite toy car instead. Or to buy a new one for him.

E. A person's look or appearance(外表)doesn't mean everything. The most important thing is to study hard and have a good future.

    Running away is a serious problem. There are lots of runaway and homeless kids living in the streets around the world.

    孩子们为什么想离家出走呢?

    Some kids run away because they're afraid to tell their parents the bad things that they did at school or in society.

    Some kids run away because there is violence(暴力)in the family.

    Some kids run away because their parents' divorce(离婚) or marry again.

    Some kids run away because they have problems at school.

    What will you do if your friend wants to run away from home?

    If your friend is thinking about running away, tell him or her that it is difficult to survive (幸存) in the streets. Try to help your friend fee less alone.

    Whatever the problem is there are other ways to solve it .Maybe you can't think of the ways right now. but an adult (成年人) will know how to help you. You should tell an adult that your friend plans to run away as soon as possible. Being a real friend doesn't mean keeping a secret that may hurt someone. And running away isn't a solution for either of you. It only makes more problems and danger.
