6．Dear Sunday Globe，
I'm writing to you about your article in last Sunday's newspaper，"Cell Phones Make Life Easier．"You did an excellent job explaining the good points of cell phones．They're （51）G and very helpful in business．We feel safer always being able to call someone．On the other hand，you didn't talk about their bad points （52）B．Thus，I hope you'll let me give your readers some advice on cell phone etiquette （礼仪）．
The first point I'd like to address is loudness．When talking face to face （53）F，you wouldn't shout．Likewise，don't shout when you talk on your cell phone in public．In fact，the microphones in cell phones are so sensitive that you can be heard even if you speak（54）D．Furthermore，keep your ringer nice and quiet，and don't let it ring in meetings，at the movies，etc．
Another point that needs to be made is to （55）I personal space．I think it is very impolite to make calls in small spaces or （56）E rooms．This makes others uncomfortable and forces them to listen to your personal business．That's （57）C I use my cell phone at least three metres away from other people except in emergencies．
Lastly，let me draw your readers'attention to the dangers of doing two things at the same time．For example，cell phones and （58）A are a bad combination．Pay attention to the road!Besides，cell phones can cause you to neglect good friends．Give friends who are with you your full attention．Turn off your cell phone and enjoy their company!
Sincerely
Amber Jala

How Do You Get to School？-by Wayview School Newspaper
How did you get to school today？A recent survey shows that Wayview students get to school by riding the bus，driving，biking，walking and riding a scooter．
Our survey shows that 25% of Wayview students take the bus to school．Fourth grade student Wesley Gibson explained，"The bus is the best way to get to school．I can relax and chat with my friends while the bus driver does all the work．S（86）ometimes I even finish my homework on the bus!"Another 25% of Wayview students are d（87）riven to school by their parents every day．In all，50% of Wayview students get to school in a vehicle，e（88）ither the bus or a car．
The other 50% of Wayview students ride their bikes，walk，or ride a scooter．Fifth-grader Alexis Wang is one of the 20% of Wayview students who walk to school each day．She said，"Walking to school is better than the bus or car because you get m（89）oreexercise．"Another 20% of Wayview students ride their bikes．Chris Madsen said he likes riding his bike because"it's faster than walking，and you can race with your friends．"
The last group of Wayview students get to school by riding scooters．The number of students riding scooters to school has i（90）ncreased．Last year，only 5% of the students rode scooters，and this year it's 10%．Ella Peterson said，"Riding a scooter is the most f（91）un way to get to school．It's as fast as a bike，and scooters are cool．"Headmaster Wang wanted to remind all Wayview students that a（92）nyone riding a bike or scooter to school must wear a helmet．
As you can see，Wayview students find all kinds of ways to get to school．In the end it doesn't really matter how you get here，as long as you get here on time!

4．Malaysia Airlines deeply regrets that MH370ended in the southern Indian Ocean．MH370first （60）disappeared in the early hours of March 8th，while flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing．
We should know how to （61）save ourselves when the crash happened．Australian professor Galea，summed up 6golden rules after years of research．It might be able to help you escape in case of emergency．
Australian professor ED Galea has interviewed 2，000survivors of 105plane crashes，searching for the keys to survival．
First，if you are traveling in a （63）family group，you should insist that the airline does not separate （分开）you throughout the aircraft．Why？It's natural that if you're involved in that kind of situation that you're going to want to meet the family before you move out．
Second，how do you untie your seat belt in a plane？You press a button．If you can't untie your seat belt，then，you can't run away and your （64）chance of survival will drop．
Third，sit within seven rows of an exit and count exactly how many rows you are from the nearest two exits．Count so that you can find an exit in the （65）dark．
Fourth，we would all be safer if airline seats faced backward．But the difficulty with this is that the most of the tourists don't like （66）ttraveling with their back facing the direction of travel．
Fifth，"Smoke is （67）harmful to your health．If you take in enough of them，you will die，"explains Galea．You must learn how to use a smoke mask．Otherwise，you'll waste time trying to put it on--time that could be used for running （68）away．
At last，listen to the preflight briefing（飞行前的注意事项） by the flight attendants and read the （69）safety instructions．Always be prepared．Good luck to you．

3．Dear Mum，
Happy birthday to you!
On this special day I'd like to talk to you in a special way．I don't think I'm good at （73）tellingyou about my thoughts face to face，so I'm writing to tell you my deep love for you．
You're not a rich woman or a famous person．But in my heart，you're one of the （74）greatestwomen in the world．I'm （75）proudof you．
You've never been （76）interested in fame （名声） and money．You do general things like （77）paying phone bills （账单），doing some chores，and working as a nurse in your hospital．The smile on your face shows you're （78）pleased with the family．You always （79）take good care of my grandparents．You help me with my lesson and do some shopping with dad on Sundays．
In the past，I didn't care （80）whetheryou were with me or not．Now I am sorry to say I didn't show you my respect before．But I am thankful for what you have （81）donefor me．I am quite lucky that I have（82）such a great mother．And I feel happy that now I can let you know how much I love you．You are （83）successful as a daughter，a wife，a mother，and a friend．
I wish you happiness forever!
Lots of loves，
Li Mei．

1．Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive（欺骗）？When someone tells you something that is true，but leaves out important information that should be included，he can give you a false picture．
For example，someone might say，"I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery（彩票）．It was great．I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!"
This guy is a winner，right？Maybe，maybe not．We then discover that he bought $ 200worth of tickets，and only one was a winner．He's really a big loser!
He didn't say anything that was false，but he left out important information on purpose．That's called a half-truth．Half truths are not technically lies，but they are just as dishonest．
Some officers often use this trick．Let's say that during Governor Smith's last term，her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs．Then she tries another term．One of the persons who don't support her says，"During Governor Smith's term，the state lost one million jobs!"That's true．However，an honest statement would have been，"During Governor Smith's term，the state had a net gain of two million jobs．"
Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths．It's against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth．An advertisement might say，"Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache．"It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company．
This kind of thing happens too often．It's a sad fact of life：Lies are lies，and sometimes the truth can lie as well．
