So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs .” John got married six months ago , and like many young people these days , they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high .The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school .Now they make all their furniture and repairs around the house .
Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife has died .He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory .Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420 . “I was deeply upset about it .Now I’ve finished a car repair course .I should be able to fix the car by myself .”

A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, red apple on the tree near a house. The boy didn’t like eating __35__ very much. He preferred a piece of chocolate if he was given the choice, but this time, seeing the nice apple, the boy wanted it very much. The more he looked at the apple, the __36__ he felt and the more he wanted it.
He stood on tiptoe (脚尖), stretching (伸展) as high as he could, but he was still unable to touch it. He began to __37__ up and down, as high as he could, at the top of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple. Still it remained out of __38__.
Not giving up, he thought, if he had something to __39__ on, he could reach it. His school bag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to __40__ the things inside, like his lunch box, pencil case, and Gameboy. Looking __41__, he hoped he might find an old box, a rock, or, with luck, even a ladder, but he found nothing that he could __42__.
He had tried everything he could think to do. Without seeing any other choices, he gave up and started to walk away. At first he felt angry and disappointed (失望的) thinking about how hungry he had become from his __43__, and how he really wanted that apple. The more he thought like this, the more unhappy he became.
However, the boy of our story was a __44__ one, even if he couldn’t always get what he wanted. He started to say to himself, “This isn’t helpful. I don’t have the apple and I’m feeling unhappy as well. There’s __45__ more I can do to get the apple. That is unchangeable. But we should try to __46__ our feelings. If that’s the case (情况), what can I do to feel better?”

Liu Xu is a student from a middle school in Guangxi. Once he was riding home when a robber (盗贼) suddenly jumped out from the roadside. He pulled Liu Xu off his bike and rode away. Liu Xu was scared, but he didn’t run after the robber. He found a telephone and called the police at 110.
“Safety is the first important in such a situation,” Liu said, remembering what his teacher had told him in his first aid class. “It is not safe to run after an adult who is stronger than you.”
Liu’s school has compulsory (必修的) first aid education. Students must take the class once a week.
Teenage safety has become a serious issue recently. According to a survey, about 16,000 teenagers die in accidents in China every year.
At Liu’s school the first aid classes are to “teach students skills how to protect and save themselves in emergencies (紧急情况)”. Students there often learn by role-playing in first aid classes. For example, one student performed as a stranger knocking at a door. Another one stood inside the door and asked several questions before letting the “stranger” in. Then they changed roles and did it again. They learned a lot while having fun at role-playing.
The topics of the first aid classes are regularly updated (适时的). The students have learned skills for surviving in earthquakes. The teacher also taught the students not to go out at night. If someone tried to do bad things to them, they should quickly run into crowed place.
