A sign is another kind of language. Here are some of them that you can see on the roads.
Number One is a sign with the number forty on it. When driver see this sign, they must not go at more than forty kilometers one hour. We see this sign when we are getting near a town. Number Two is a sign that we’re near a crossing. We must drive carefully. Number Three is a sign that there is a bend (弯道) on the road. Again, we must drive slowly and carefully. It is not safe to go round a bend very fast. Number Four is a sign that there is another road coming in from the right. There is a junction(交叉点) at this place.
Number Five is a sign that there is a dangerous mountain road and Number Six is a sign that the road gets narrow. Drivers must go slowly and carefully when they see these signs. Number Seven is a sign that there is a school at the side of the street or the road. Perhaps there are children going to or leaving school. So drivers must look carefully and go slowly. Number Eight is a sign with a letter “P” on it. The letter “P” means “Parking”. At some places, there are signs “NO PARKING” or “NO WAITING”. If a driver leaves his car near one of these signs, a policeman may come and write down the number of his car.

We always regard dogs as man’s best friends. But what about cats?
Cats can also do us a favor sometimes.
Here is a comparison of the two animals.
A Friend Helps You When You’re Sick.
Dogs | When Catherine lay down on the sofa, Pepe stared(盯) into her eyes and kept sniffing(嗅). After being pushed away, he suddenly jumped onto her chest. That’s when Catherine felt a pain that made her visit a doctor, and a fast-growing cancer was found. Months later, however, Pepe started staring and sniffing again. It seemed strange, but sure enough, Catherine’s cancer had spread. |
Cats | Alana immediately finds a chair when Tee sits and stares directly into her face. That’s because Tee is warning her that she is about to faint(昏倒), which can happen as often as three times a day. But Alana won’t get hurt if she sits down. Not only does Tee warn Alana, but also her husband. Then the cat stays with Alana until she recovers. |
Dogs | Ryan fell into the water by accident. The river was full of ice, and Ryan was very cold and his body temperature was dropping dangerously low. Luckily, he was found by Chelsea, who was playing with her dog, Zion. “Zion knew the boy was in trouble,” says Chelsea. “Ryan grabbed onto the dog’s collar, and Zion just turned around and came back to the bank.” |
Cats | Bernice says: “I was sleeping in my bedroom, and then I was woken by Joey screaming and running”. Then she found smoke around her. With Joey helping her, she managed to get out of the door. “I found him in a mailbox when he was young and now I feel very lucky. Without him, I’d have probably died in the smoke.” |

Janel gave her 13-year-old son Jim an iPhone for Christmas. But she also had a contract (契约)about how Jim’s new toy can and can’t be used.
Contract
Rule 1: It is my phone. I bought it. I pay for it. I am lending it to you. Aren’t I the greatest?
Rule 2: If it rings, answer it. It is a phone. Say “hello”, use your manners.
Rule 3: Hand the phone to one of your parents at 7:30p.m. every school night & every weekend night at 9:00 p.m.. It will be shut off for the night and turned on again at 7:30a.m..
Rule 4: Turn it off, silence it, put it away in public. Especially in a restaurant, at the movies, or while speaking with another people. You are not a rude person, do not allow the iPhone to change that.
Rule 5: Leave your phone home sometimes and feel safe. It is not all for you. Learn to live without it. Be bigger and more powerful than it.
Rule 6: Don’t take too many pictures and videos. There is no need to record everything. They will be stored in your memory for ever.
Rule 7: If it falls into the toilet, breaks on the ground, or lose, you should pay for it. You can take care of the baby, and wash dishes to save some money.

Many people hurt their backs when they try to lift heavy things from the floor. It is easy to hurt your back muscle(肌肉) when you try to pick up a heavy thing. However, there is a correct way to lift things from the floor. If you pick up heavy things correctly, you probably will not hurt

Before you hit ‘Enter’ on MSN, read this
It is often said that the language we use online is less formal than that we use in a letter, or in direct speech sometimes. This is true, but it can also make us in trouble sometimes.
The thing about online communication is that you have no idea what the person who is reading your messages is feeling. For this reason, it is always a good idea to be polite and cautious when writing e-mails or messages to your friends.
Chinese can be a direct language, but in English, people often talk about a subject in another way. So instead of saying “Please meet me here” or “Do this for me now”, English speakers usually go for indirect phrases like “Would it be possible”, “if you have time” or “It would mean a lot to me if…”
If you have a close friend, you may still run into trouble because of your jokes. If you have asked someone to do something and they need a bit more time, you might joke with him: “What? You still haven’t done it yet? What’s wrong with you?” While this seems funny to you, your friend may feel unhappy.
If you have foreign friends in different countries, the time difference can also be a factor. While you are waking up for class on Friday morning, they may be having a party on Friday night. You will be serious and they will, probably, be excited. So don’t be angry if they seem not to care about you. Just try to message them at the proper time.
【小题1】 According to the passage, we learn that our letters are more ______ than the e-mails.
A.formal | B.direct |
C.different | D.funny |
A.polite | B.rude |
C.direct | D.formal |
A.Because we mustn’t play jokes online. |
B.Because our friends are easy to be angry. |
C.Because it can help us avoid lots of troubles. |
D.Because we can’t see our friends online. |
A.It is OK to connect your friend by MSN anytime. |
B.Using the proper way to chat online is necessary. |
C.Don’t ask your friend to do something for you by MSN. |
D.Never play jokes with your friends. |
Because earthquakes happen without warning, it’s important to take steps now to prepare.
Because you don’t know where you will be when an earthquake happens, prepare some supplies for your home, workplace, and car.
1. Water.
A person needs at least 1 or 2 gallon of water daily just for drinking. Store at least 1 gallon of water per person per day and be prepared for a 72-hour period. It is suggested that you buy bottled water. Keep bottled water and do not open it until you need to use it. Also, do check the “use by” date.
2. Food.
It’s always a practical idea to keep food that can be stored easily. Have an enough supply of canned food, powdered milk, dried fruits, non-salted nuts and canned juices for at least 72 hours.
3. Flashlights(手电筒) and spare batteries.
Keep a flashlight beside your bed, at your place of work, and in your car. Do not use matches or candles after an earthquake. Maybe it’s dangerous. Prepare a battery-powered radio and spare batteries. Most telephones will be out of service, so radios will be your best thing of information.
4. Clothes.
If you live in a cold place, you must think about warmth. You might not have heat after an earthquake. Think about your clothing and bedding supplies.【小题1】
