It was a cold snowy morning after the winter vacation. And it was my first day at my new school. I was walking alone slowly and worrying about lots of things. It was early and there weren't many people on the road. Suddenly a girl who was riding a bike on ice fell down. She was trying hard to get up but fell again. Without thinking, I went over and helped her. She said" thank you" with a smile and then rode away. Her words warmed me a lot.

    Finally, I got to school. The teacher led me to the classroom and introduced me to the class. Then he asked me to sit down beside a girl. I felt so nervous that I didn't dare to look at her. Soon the first class, English, started. Their textbooks were different from those in my old school. As I was wondering what to do, an English book appeared in front of me. "Let's share," the girl beside me said. "Hi, I'm Carrie." I looked up. It was the girl I helped this morning. Later on, we became good friends.

    From that I learned: To help others is actually to help ourselves!

    Bob comes out of the station and at first he doesn't know the way where to go. This is the first time he comes to this town. He's a president (总裁) in a company(公司). He comes to see his good friend, Peter. Peter is a worker and works in a car factory (工厂). But Bob doesn't know where the factory is. He walks in the street. He passes a hospital (医院), a post office, a bookshop and at last he gets to a school. Some students are coming out. He asks one of them, "Excuse me, do you know where the Red Star Car Factory is?" "Of course, I know. I live there. My father works in that factory. It's outside the town," answers the boy. "Is it far from here? Can you show me the way, please? "Bob asks again. "Yes, I'm going home now. Will you please go with me? I'll take you there." "That's great! Thank you very much." "You are welcome. Then let's go to that bus stop. We'll take a No 1 bus there."

    Traffic rules help to keep order on the road. They also help to keep people s{#blank#}1{#/blank#}. The pedestrian (行人) has as many rules to f{#blank#}2{#/blank#} as the driver of a car. You should walk on the sidewalk (人行道) or at the side of the road. Always look {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (careful) before you walk across the street.

    If you like riding {#blank#}4{#/blank#} bike, don't ride in the middle of the road or run through red traffic lights. When you ride a bike w{#blank#}5{#/blank#} a friend, don't look around or talk.

    If you drive a car, you should s{#blank#}6{#/blank#} down at the traffic lights. You must always wear a seat belt (安全带), Without belts b{#blank#}7{#/blank#} the driver and the passengers may be badly hurt in a sudden accident.

    You may not need to take a bus, but look out if you have to travel in one. Get on or get off a bus only when it comes to a s{#blank#}8{#/blank#}. When it is full, don't try to get inside, o{#blank#}9{#/blank#} you may fall off.

    Traffic rules are also {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (call) Road Safety rules. The maxim (格言) for all road users is "Thinking about others".

When children go to middle school，they get busy. They need free time to 1 . If parents and their children can find free time activities to enjoy 2 ，it'll be useful to both of them. 

How children 3 their free time

All children are different. But many of them like to spend their free time doing things like shopping，going to the park or going 4 in rooms. Children also like to kill their free time by taking part in (参加) afterschool activities，5 going to the art club and playing sports. 

Free time with families

A lot of children also like spending their free time with their 6 . Parents are happy 7 they can spend time with their kids. It's also a good 8 to know more about each other. But sometimes children just want to spend time 9 themselves. Then parents should give (给) 10 some free time. And they will learn to balance (平衡) the time spent with themselves and families.
