7．What do you read when you are travelling by train or bus？What are other people reading？Perhaps a woman sitting near you is reading a love story．A man is reading a serious biography（自传） about a president．And there's a student reading an English textbook．
What do their choices（选择） say about them？Do you think you can know them by what they are reading？I have got to tell you that your feelings of them may be quite wrong．The woman reading the love story could be a lawyer．She just wants a light read to take her mind off work．The man reading the biography wants you to think that he is very clever．The student reading the textbook isn't a student at all．She's an English teacher．
Publishers（出版商） know that some people care what they read on trains or buses and so they put out different types of covers．For example，books about Harry Potter have a cartoon cover for young readers and then another more serious cover for grown-ups．
So next time you are on a train，look around and see what other people are reading，but don't jump to any conclusions（结论）．You will be wrong maybe．
Here is a sentence that you could say，"Don't judge（判断） a book by its cover"．

Title：Never judge a book people choose to read by the cover．
Persons	The lawyer reading a love story just wants to have a （72） rest．
	The man reading the biography wants（73）other people to think he is very clever．
	The student reading a textbook in fact （74）teaches English．
Ways	Publishers won't put out the （75）same cover of a book．
Conclusion	If you jump to the conclusions carelessly，you may make （76） mistakes．

6．A study shows that one million lives might be saved each year if people wash their hands with soap（肥皂） often．It also says that hand-washing with soap could be among the best ways to reduce diseases．Doctors say many diseases can be prevented from spreading by hand-washing．These include the common cold，influenza（流行感冒），hepatitis（肝炎），infectious diarrhea（腹泻） and so on．
Doctors say you are easy to catch a cold by touching your nose or eyes after someone nearby has sneezed or coughed．Another reason to catch a disease is to eat food prepared by someone whose hands were not clean．
They also say that hand-washing is especially important before and after preparing food，before eating and after using the toilet，after touching money and sneezing or coughing．The most helpful way is to wash them together while using soap and warm water．You do not have to use special soap．Be sure to wash all areas of the hands for about ten to fifteen seconds．

Hi Mary，
Thank you for writing to me and I will try to give you some ideas about improving your written English．The bad news，of course，is that there is no
（92）easyway to do this．It takes work．
Improving your English，like getting better at anything else，means lots of
practice．I think you already know enough words and grammar in English to make sentences and to understand English，and the problem you have is as the problem all Chinese students have when they learn English．You go to English class a couple of times a week and the（93）restof the time you speak Chinese．If you come to Canada，your English would improve very （94）quicklybecause you would use it all day，every day．It's just practice．
To improve your writing in English，you should do （95）twothings．First，you should try to read English as much as possible．It doesn't matter what you read，so pick something that interests you．Reading English will show you how English words are used together，how English speakers express themselves and so on，so you can learn a lot from that．Then you should practice writing．Ask your teacher if you can get extra assignments and write things like short stories．Your teacher can show you where you make mistakes and how to （96）correctthem．You can also write more letters to English speakers on the Internet （I will be happy to exchange letters with you if that will help）．Don't worry if you make mistakes （97）because that is how you learn．You say you can not obey your plans．In English we say，"Plan the work，work the plan．"You need a plan and then you need to follow your plan to improve．I hope these ideas are （98）useful．I wish you luck，and if you want to write to me I will be happy to try to help you．We can talk about China，about Canada or anything else you like．
Best wishes，Brad Flankin

1．While you are much safer inside than out，lightning（闪电）can strike（击） you even in the home．Here's how to protect you indoors：
●Stay away from windows．Get out of the shower or bath．Don't touch conductors such as fireplaces and metal pipes（管子）．
Cherry，was struck by lightning last year while washing her clothes．Lightning entered a window next to the washing machine，struck her right hand，traveled through her body and finally out of her left arm．"It was as though I was holding a bolt（电光） in my hands，"remembered Cherry，who was thrown across the room．
●Stay off the telephone．
It isn't an old wives'story-many people have been hurt through the telephone lines．It was raining outside while Peter Anderson was on the phone at his house in Florida．"Ban!A bolt hit the building，"he says．"I felt the hair on my arms stand on end，and a lightning hit me through telephone，which was almost blown out of my hand．"
●Unplug（拔去插头） televisions，computers，etc．
Don't just turn them off．If the house is struck，they could be damaged（毁坏） if you keep them plugged in．

Properly fixed，lightning rods reduced chances of damage to a home and to the people inside it．
