2.Do you know how to be a street smart?Being street smart means knowing how to keep yourself safe from strangers when you're alone or with other kids.(36)C Most strangers aren't dangerous and wouldn't do anything to hurt kids.Unfortunately,though some strangers can be dangerous,and it's impossible to tell who's ok and who's not.(37)GThat's why it's important to follow these safety rules all the time:Make your whereabouts(行踪) known.
The adults who are taking care of you need to know where you are and when you'll be coming home.(38)A
It's more fun and safer to do things with friends.Traveling with a friend whenever you can is a good idea,and traveling with a group of kids is even better.
(39)BSafe spots are places where you can stop if you need help.Like the houses of kids you know,the houses of your parents'friends,police stations,libraries,and fire departments.When you're walking or riding your bike,make a mental note of the safe spots along your route.That way,you'll know where they are in case you ever need one.
(40)FYou've probably been told lots of times that you should not shout and keep quiet.But when you think you might be in danger,it's the perfect time to be noisy!If a stranger gets close to you,follows you or tries to grab you,shout as loudly as you can and try to get away.People in the area will hear what's going on and help you,so make plenty of noise.
A.Stick with a friend.
B.Pick out safe spots.
C.It helps you stay safe.
D.Shout"help"when necessary.

Thirty years ago,there wasn't nearly as much blatant (公然的) disrespect for elders,peers,or other people in general.At that time,young people were taught that to get anything or get anywhere in life,they'd have to work for it and earn it.
If young people aren't being taught the basics of respecting others,and aren't being taught that they need to work to make a living,then where are they to learn courage?
Courage isn't necessarily about risking your life,for whatever reason.It is about being able to face any kind of hardship,and to make decisions and face the consequences of those decisions.
Courage means being able to learn from hard times,and to take those lessons with you through life.It means having the resourcefulness (足智多谋) to find ways to deal with your problems yourself,and not being afraid to do so.
Too many young people now rely on parents,siblings,older relatives and others to get them through life.Too often they turn to these figures whenever they get into trouble,and expect to have their problems solved for them.
If we are to help our young people become more courageous,we should stop spoiling them,stop doing everything for them,and teach them the skills necessary to make basic life decisions on their own.
Once these basic principles are instilled (灌输) in our young people,I think we'll find that they are more courageous than we could have dreamed,and more like the young people of thirty years ago than we had ever imagined.
It's time to go back to older values and ideas,and to bring courage back into our young people and society.
Theme | (66)Comparedwith young people 30 years ago,th ose are less courageous. |
The behavior of young people today | They generally show no(67)respectfor elders and other people. They take for granted whatever they have or receive. Many of them (68)dependon their parents or other relatives to get them through life. |
(69)Reasons/Causes | They are not (70)awareof the basics of respecting others. They are not taught to work hard to make a (71)realize/live. They don't have the (72)abilityto make wise decisions and overcome difficulties independently. They tend to expect others,such as their parents or siblings,to help them out when they are in (73)trouble/difficulty. |
Tips | Never (74)spoilthem; only help them when necessary. Teach them the skills they need to make basic life decisions by themselves. |
Conclusion | It's time we went back to older values and ideas,and (75)Broughtcourage back into our young people and society. |
