Blue jackets, white shirts and black pants. The school uniform just looks out of fashion. Like many of you, I don't like it. However, if I had a chance, I wouldn't throw my school uniform away.
Uniforms show that we are part of a school. Wearing them says we are all in this school together. Some people think that uniforms can learning. I totally agree with them. Uniforms make the classroom a more serious environment. We will find it to focus (专注) on our schoolwork. Most importantly, a uniform means we don't have to worry about peer pressure (同龄人间的压力). When everyone is dressed the same, we stop about our appearance（外貌）. There is no need for being dressed in the latest fashion. This can our parents a lot of money.

James and Jennifer were driving from Nevada to Idaho with their five-month-old son. Shortly after their leaving home it began to snow. The snow was soon so 1 that it became a blizzard (暴风雪). The blizzard went on for many hours. By the time it was over, there was about 1.5 meters deep of snow on the road and it was 2 to drive. They looked around for a house to stay in, but they could see nothing. They looked for another 3 but there wasn't one to travel on. They had to stay where they were. They stayed there for five days. They had very little to eat or drink. They ate some cookies they had in the car, and they even had snow for water. Jennifer was able to feed her baby herself.
After five days , they knew they could no longer stay in their car. James made a large4 in the snow for Jennifer and the baby to stay in, and he started the long walk to get help. In 22 hours he walked over 45 kilometers. At last he got to the town of Vya. James was very tired and could not even speak, but he was able to tell the people in the town5 Jennifer and his son were. The people in the town hurried to save Jennifer and her baby. When they found them, the baby was crying loudly. They took them to hospital, where the doctors looked after them.
Many people thought it was a miracle (奇迹) that the family didn't die in such a blizzard.
Children are often interested in fire. They like to play with matches. If they are not c, they start fires at home. They hide under beds or just cry with fear. 20%—25% of all fire deaths are children, so all children should learn about the danger of fire.
Most fires start out small, but after a few minutes they can be b. The most important thing to do is to hide all matches. Of course, young children should never be left alone in the home. Even if they don't play with fire, they may start a fire btrying to cook in the wrong way.
It's also important for children to learn how to crawl(爬) on the floor and below the smoke to get out of the house and ask for help from another place. Don't try to put out the fire yourself. Call119 and tell where you are and wis on fire.
Remember not to go back into the home for your pets or your favourite t. Firefighters will do this. Don't use the lift. Always use the stairs. The lift may go wrong and keep you inside.
A Free Meal
"I'm hungry," Pat said to his friend, Mike. "Let's have a meal somewhere."
They walked down the road until（直到）they came to an expensive restaurant. "This will be fine," Pat said. "Just the place we want." He opened the door and they went inside.
A waiter came up to them at once. "A table for two, gentlemen?" he asked. "Yes. The best table you have." He took them to a table near a window. He gave them the menu and went away. Pat and Mike looked at the menu carefully, then ordered the most expensive dishes and a bottle of very good wine.
An hour later, they had almost finished their meal. It was one of the best meals they had ever had, and now they were eating their dessert（甜点）. Suddenly Pat looked carefully at his dish. "What's this?" he cried and pointed at something small and black in the dessert. The waiter hurried to their table. "Look at this!" Pat said to him in a very loud voice. "There's a dead fly（苍蝇） in my dessert. How terrible（可怕的）! I thought this was a good restaurant, but I was wrong."
The waiter was very embarrassed. "Please, sir, do not speak so loud. I am so sorry about the fly. I'm afraid accidents happen sometimes, even in the best restaurants. We shall not, of course, charge（收费）you for your meals."
Soon after this, Mike and Pat were walking past a hotel. "Let's go in and have a drink," Pat said. "I've got one fly left（剩余）."
