The average （平均） person in Yemen uses 100to 200cubic（立方）meters of water per year．That is far below the international water poverty（贫困） line of 1，000cubic meters．

A serious earthquake can be a terrible experience，and it is easy to forget safety measures（措施） in disorder（混乱）． Fortunately，most earthquake safety measures are common sense，but if you forget everything else，remember the following instructions：drop，cover，and hold on．Also，most of earthquake deaths happen after the earthquake，so remember that the danger does not end when the shaking does!
If you stay indoors during an earthquake，move away from unsupported areas and windows．Try to get under a doorway or another area of the building which is held up by strong beams（梁）．Stay under a table or desk only if it is very strong．Do not rush to lifts，because it is far safer to stay where you are．Cover your head with your arms around it and curl （蜷缩） into a ball，and wait for the shaking to stop．
If you stay outdoors during an earthquake，move to an area which is as open as possible．Don’t move to buildings，electric poles and other objects which may fall during an earthquake and injure you．Protect your head and stay low to the ground till the shaking ends and it is safe to move．
After an earthquake，many buildings are less strong，although they appear safe．If you stay indoors，move people from the building quickly and help disabled or injured people．Once outdoors，move well away from the building so that if it falls down，you will not be injured．Wait till public safety officials announce that it is safe to stay indoors．
By planning ahead and keeping calm during an earthquake，you can greatly increase your chances of survival（生存） without injury．

I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. I wasn’t an excellent student because I didn’t do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn’t have much to offer.
I then found myself a job, looking after two little girls. It wasn’t too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in. I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she’d give me time off the next. But unluckily, it didn’t often work out. I was getting very tired. Because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children.
One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification(资格证书)if I wanted to work with children. I didn’t think I would be accepted because I didn’t take many exams in school. She asked me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part-time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.
Now I’ve got a full-time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that I could have a success, even if I am not top of the class at school.

I arrived at my mother’s home for our Saturday family dinner. The smells of food flew over from the kitchen. Mother was pulling out quilt after quilt from the boxes， proudly showing me their beauties. I knew they were all made herself. She was preparing for a quilt show on TV. When we began to fold and put them back into the boxes， I noticed something at the bottom of one box.I pulled it out. “What’s this?” I asked.
“Oh?” Mom said， “That’s Mama’s quilt.”
I spread the quilt. It looked as if a group of school children had made the pieces together.
“Grandmother made this?” I asked in surprise. My grandmother was a master at making quilts. This certainly didn’t look like any of the quilts she had made.
“Yes， right before she died. I brought it home with me last year and made some changes，” Mom said， “I’m still working on it. See， this is what I’ve done so far.”
I looked at it more closely. She had made a line straight(直的). At the center of the quilt， she had stitched a piece of cloth with these words： “My mother made many quilts. She didn’t get all lines straight. But I think this is beautiful. I want to see it finished. Her last quilt.”
“Oh， this is so nice， Mom.” I said. I was sure now that by completing my grandmother’s quilt， my mother was honoring her own mother. I realized that I held in my hands a family treasure. It started with the loving hands of one woman， and continued with the loving hands of another.

I was in a shopping mall， so I decided to go and get a cup of coffee. As I was making my way to the coffee shop， I noticed an old gentleman poorly dressed sitting near the shop. I knew from the first sight that he needed help. He had a little lunch in front of him and was enjoying it. It was clear that he had a problem with his right eye. I then joined the line and waited to be served.
Then it happened. One of the most beautiful gestures(姿态) I had ever seen in my life. There was a young man in front of me in the line who was also waiting to be served. The next thing I knew was that the young man handed the waitress(女服务员) 20 dollars and requested a glass of juice as a favor(善行). The waitress looked at the young man a little perplexed， not fully understanding the request. That was when the young man asked her to give the juice to the old gentleman eating his lunch outside， as well as the change(零钱) from the 20 dollars. The young man also told her that he would be watching every second so that she would be completely safe. Then there was a wonderful exchange between the waitress and the old man. I only wished I could take a photo of the smiles on both of their faces.
As I was considering this event later， I wondered why the young man didn’t perform this act of kindness himself. Maybe he was hoping that this act of kindness might inspire(激励) others to do something for this old man as well.

During her vacation, she decided to buy a Casio watch. For Wang, researching products is as enjoyable as buying them. 4. For Liu Yu, aged 17 from Yantai, Shandong Province, the collection of Han clothes is among her interests. 5."Instead of buying, I prefer to learn about the culture and history behind these clothes," said Liu.
