School is not the safe place as it used to be．How to be safer in school? How can students stay away from danger? There are many activities that students can do to learn safety in an easy way．Here are some stories from the students who have had safety classes in Xuri Middle School．
Wang Lin：About Sports Safety
Once we made up a story about sports safety．All we needed to do was to point out safe and unsafe sports behaviors in the story．From this lesson, we knew we should always do warm-up(热身)activities before playing sports and drink some water after that．
Liu Ying：About Classroom Safety
Putting on short plays is a good way to learn and enjoy ourselves．We once put on a short play about a boy called Little Naughty．He always did something naughty(淘气的)in the classroom and got himself into trouble．In this way, we learned to behave well and get on well with each other．
Zhou Weilun：About Fire Safety
In our school, we have a fire emergency response practice(火警应急演习)in September every year．So we know where to go if there is a fire in school．We learn to use the fire extinguisher(灭火器), too．But I don't think we should be allowed to put out the fire alone, it's too dangerous for young students like us．

Tears came into this mother’s eyes when she talked about waking up her son．Every morning, her ten-year-old boy puts up one finger with his eyes still closed, begging(乞求)for one more minute to sleep．
Why is he so sleepy? Because, like thousands of student “early birds” in China, he has to get up before 6 a. m. every morning．
School students usually need eight to ten hours’ sleep a night．But in Shanghai, it’s reported that 90％ of the students do not get enough sleep．And studies show that without a good night’s sleep, students seem to be weaker than they should be．Many become near-sighted as a result．
Li Ming, a student at Qing Hua High School, said that he usually goes to bed after 11 p. m．But when he has exams coming up, he can stay up as late as midnight．This “night birds” lifestyle has made many students nod(点头)off in class．Li Ming said that it is during afternoon classes that he feels most sleepy．“My parents are usually happy to see me studying so late,” he said．“They think I work very hard and they make me cups of coffee．”
However, not all parents are happy about this “
My daughter gets up so early．She looks tired and it really hurts me, ” said one of the parents．Why don’t so many students get enough sleep? Now many members of society began to think about it．

In general(一般来说), people talk about two groups of colors：warm colors and cool colors．Scientists think that there are also two groups of people：people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool colors．
The warm colors are red, orange, and yellow．Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people usually want to be active．People think that red, for example, is exciting．Sociable(善交际的)people, those who like to be with others, like red．The cool colors are green, blue, and violet．These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing．Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet．People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue．
Red may be exciting, but one scientist says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors．He suggests that a warm color, such as red or orange, is a good color for a living room or restaurant．People who are relaxing or eating do not want time to pass quickly．Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass quickly．
Scientists do not know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool．However, almost everyone agrees that red, orange, and yellow are warm and that green, blue, and violet are cool．Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days．Because in the north the sun is low during winter, the sunlight appears quite blue．Because the sun is higher during summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow．

If you are in America or go to American families to have meals, you should learn some table manners．Here are some tips：
Don't circle your plate with your arms．If you do so, you will become the focus(焦点)of the table．Everyone would wonder," Is there anything wrong with the food?" This may give a wrong message that you don't like the food or something like that
Don't push the plate back when finished, leave it where it was．Do you want to let the hostess know that you've just done a labor?
Don't lean(倚靠)back and say “I'm through" or "I'm full"．Just put the fork and knife across the plate．That's all．
Don't cut up everything before you start to eat．Cut only one or two bites(块)at a time．
Never take a huge mouthful of anything．Do you want to show how hungry you are? Don't do that．It 's not so good．

Plants are very important living things．Life couldn’t go if there were no plants．This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight．Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight．Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals．So animals and man need plants in order to live．This is why we find that there are so many plants around us．
If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants：flowering plants and non-flowering plants．
Flowering plants can make seeds(种子)．The seeds are protected by the fruits．Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds．But a few fruits have no seeds at all．An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit．
Most non-flowering plants don’t grow from seeds．They grow from spores(孢子)．Spores are very, very small．Some spores are so small and light that they can float(漂浮)in the air．We may say that spores are quite the same as the seeds．When these spores fall on wet and shady(阴凉的)places, they usually grow into new plants．

Every year on my birthday, from the time 1 turned 12, a white gardenia(栀子花)was sent to my house．It did not come with a card or note of any kind, but I loved the beauty and sweet smell of the flower．
And I never stopped imaging who the giver might be．My mother helped me to imagine．She’d ask me if I had done something kind for anyone．Perhaps the neighbor I’d helped carry heavy bags for, or one of my classmates who I helped the lessons with．As a teenager, though, I had more fun thinking that it might be a boy I liked at school．
When I was 17, a boy broke my heart and I cried myself to sleep．When I woke up in the morning, there was a message on my mirror, “If we let sadness go, happiness will surely come to you．” I thought about those words for a long time．When I finally went to get the glass cleaner, my mother knew everything was all right again．
One month before I finished high school, my father left us forever．I lost interest in all the celebrating activities such as the class play, taking photos with classmates before leaving the high school where I had studied for three years．Although my mother was very sad, she still encouraged me to take part in all those．She wanted her child to have a sense that there was still beauty in the face of bad luck, just like the gardenia－lovely, strong and perfect．
My mother died 10 days after I was married．I was 26．That was the year gardenias stopped coming．
