One day, a woman took a bus with her son. The boy was about four years old. He ran on the bus and 1 up and down on the seat. There was a man next to them. When he saw it, he was a little 2 and told the boy not to run or jump, because it was very dangerous and it was also impolite (不礼貌). But the3said, "He is just a little kid, we shouldn't be so strict with a child." The man said to the woman, "4 we don't teach the kids now, they will not follow the rules in the future."

    Do you agree with the woman or the man? At 5, we have family rules. For example (例如), we can't6 on school nights. In the school, we also have school rules. We can't listen to music in the classroom. We 7 eat in the classroom. We must wear uniforms8 Monday to Friday. Parents and schools are sometimes strict, but remember, they make rules to help 9. We must 10 these rules.

We know animals have emotions. They can feel fear. We also think they feel love, since they have strong relationships with each other. So are animal emotions s{#blank#}1{#/blank#} to our own? And do animals have a sense of humor?

A Parrot's Joke

Sally's parrot Bongo didn't get along with her o{#blank#}2{#/blank#} parrot, Paco. In fact, Bongo clearly didn't like Paco at all! One day, Sally cooked a chicken for dinner. She started to cut the chicken with a knife. 

"Oh, no! Paco!"Bongo said loudly and laughed. Sally laughed, too, and said, "That chicken is not Paco. ""Oh…no, "said Bongo. This time, she sounded d{#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Then the parrot laughed at her own joke.

Animal Laughter

Then she played it to dogs and s{#blank#}6{#/blank#} their behavior. "All the dogs seemed to like the laugh, "says Patricia. So do animals have a sense of humor?

Deadly flooding has swept China s northern provinces this summer，causing many losses such as a number of people died and houses were destroyed（破坏） by floods. Like many other natural disasters，floods can happen with little or no warming. Finish floods move quickly and have strong currents（水流）. They are known to bring down trees and take down buildings. Besides，floods can cause power cuts （停电），traffic jam and other problems. But the food itself isn't the only problem to deal with. After the flood，it may have deadly results，as it may not be easy to send food and water to the area. 

So In the face of a flash food，how should we save ourselves？

*Don't use bridges that rapidly﹣moving water is crossing，as floodwater can cause bridges to break. 

*Listen to emergency broadcasts （应急广播） for more information. If told to move to another place，do so. 

*Stay inside the car if the car Is caught in the fast﹣moving water. Only get out if the water begins to food the car itself，and then move to the roof（项部） of the car. 

*Stay away from power lines （电线），as they are knocked down during the strong storms. Besides，here is something to keep in mind after a flood. 

*Do not use floodwater to wash food or drink it. 

*Return to your home only after the government has said it is safe to do so. 

*Use only bottled or clean water for drinking cooking are nothing. 

Ma Lin, a woman in her 50s , was talking about her experiences during the Mid-Autumn Festival. "The festival atmosphere(氛围) is not as {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(strong) as before in the past. I looked forward to eating mooncakes with my family and {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(admire) the moon with them," she said. 

 The ways people celebrate the festival {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(change) in the past years. In the past, it was terrible if you could not see{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(you) family at the Mid-Autumn Festival. Nowadays, people may just make phone calls to their families, but they still know that the Mid-Autumn Festival is {#blank#}5{#/blank#} day for family reunion(团聚). They can go home at any time {#blank#}6{#/blank#} the transportation(交通) is more convenient.

 We can find that business provides people{#blank#}7{#/blank#} more ways of enjoying the holiday. People have more choices in how {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(spend) the holiday. Take the mooncakes for example. There are many kinds to choose and you can choose mooncakes for your family depend {#blank#}9{#/blank#} everyone's taste.

However, more work should be done. First, we should value the {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(story) behind festivals and keep them for our children. Second, the guidance of the government is important. Now we have vacation days during traditional festivals, which help people notice the festivals.

There are two main ways of travelling: travelling in a group and travelling by oneself. Both of them have their own good point s and1 points. Most people2 travelling in a group. I also think it is the best way.

Firstly, you will3 friendship when travelling in a group. Usually a tour group has 20 to 40 people. These people eat and sleep in the4 hotel. It is5 for you to make some new friends during the trip.

Secondly, 6 is planned by the travel agency(旅行社). You don't have to7 about buying tickets, finding hotels, deciding where to live and so on.

Thirdly, you can8 more about the places of interest from a tour guide, and won't miss any important9 . Travelling in a group can save your time and money on information searching.

In a word, travelling in a group is the10 way for me. What is your idea?

 Going clothes shopping can be difficult. Sometimes you go to a store with an idea in mind, but once you get there, you have no idea where to start. Why? {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Of course, you may feel lost when you choose.

 It's easier for you to make choosing good clothes if you have an idea. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Clothing that fits should be comfortable.

 If you' re planning on losing weight, don't buy clothes that you think you' ll wear in a few months. Maybe it is just a plan or a dream and it never happens.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

You may want to keep up with new styles, but if it isn't nice on you, don't wear it.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

 Remember that the most important thing about choosing clothes is finding a look that you like, not someone else. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}
