As children begin to head back to school, there are several things that you can do to make sure that your child stays healthy and performs at their peak potential during the school year.
1．Make sure your child is up to date on their immunizations(免疫)．The summer is a good time to schedule visits to the doctor’s as your child is not in school, and the visit won’t require that your child miss school days.
2．Encourage proper nutrition．America faces childhood obesity(肥胖)．This means that the percentage of overweight children is increasing each year, and this will place your child at risk of developing a variety of diseases when they are middle age or even young adults．You can start helping your child to become healthier by offering fruits and vegetables at home instead of calorie heavy potato chips and candy.
3．Get your child involved in sports activities．Activities in high school such as track and cross-country are important for socialization for your child, as well as helping to improve their health．You can get your child interested in wholesome activities by discussing with them how you enjoyed similar activities in high school.
4．Have the birds and the bees conversation with your child．Many children become sexually active in junior school and senior high school, and the sooner you discuss sex with your child the sooner they will be prepared．Tell your child that there is always the possibility of infecting a sexual disease when two people have sex; and discuss with your child the use of condoms．The sooner you start having this embarrassing situation the better.
5．Know your child’s friends．You can do this by inviting your child to bring their friends over to your house for a pizza night, or by chatting with them when they stop by your house．If you find your child’s friend has a bad reputation, then you could consider introducing your child to a different network of people, such as through the girl/boy scouts．Forbidding your child from seeing a certain person may only lead them to rebel and become closer to that person.
6．Discuss with your child the seriousness of drug use and abuse．Your child may not realize that using drugs can have serious consequences．Your child may get the false impression that drug use is his right．Explain to a child that saying no to drugs is their right, and that anybody offering them drugs is not their friend.
7．Help your child to avoid a life long smoking addiction by discussing with them the consequences of smoking．The sad fact is that most smokers became addicted when they were in their teenage years, and are unable to quit for long periods of time and often die many years earlier due to their smoking habit which increases the risk of lung cancer, heart disease, and a variety of medical conditions．Even if you are a smoker yourself, you can discuss with your child about how damaging smoking can be on a person’s health.
8．Impress upon your child the importance of traffic rules．Tell them that it is OK to wear a seat belt in anyone’s car, because it may save their life one day．If your child rides a bicycle or a skateboard, then discuss with them the importance of always wearing a helmet．As you child becomes qualified for driver’s permit, you should discuss with them the importance of prevention from drinking and driving.
9．Be cautious about signs of depression in childhood．A surprisingly large number of children may become depressed, and a small number of teenagers and children commit suicide(自杀) each year．Realize that any signs of unusual depressed mood, angry outbursts, suicidal comments, feelings of hopelessness, and loss of enjoyment of activities with friends may be signs of depression.

There are many kinds of sales. For example, a “back-to-school sale” is held near the beginning of the school year. Parents like the lower prices of the clothes and school supplies for their children.
A “midnight madness” event starts very late at night. An “early bird special” sale starts very early in the morning. This kind of sale is popular the day after Thanksgiving in November.
A favorite sale among many people is the “buy one, get one free” sale. You buy one thing and get a second one without cost. When people see the word “free” in an advertisement they know they are getting a good deal. As a matter of fact, it is not the case.
Another kind of sale is a “going out of business” sale. This is when a storeowner tries to sell all the goods in the store before closing the business permanently(永久地).
Let us say the store sells floor coverings. The owner lowers the prices and puts up a sign that says: “Going out of business sale. All items MUST be sold by tomorrow.”
People who buy the floor coverings think they are getting a special deal because everything must be sold in a short period of time. Then, days later they see the store did not close permanently. And they see the same sign that claims the store is going out of business. Some business owners really do not end the business. They just want to earn more money.
People also hold their own sales. They hold garage sales and yard sales outside their home. They sell things they no longer want. Groups such as religious centers or schools hold bake sales. They sell cakes, cookies and other baked goods to raise money.
In America, you can always find a good sale, no matter the day or time of year. There is the Independence Day sale, Veteran’s Day sale, clearance sale, sidewalk sale, red tag sale, white sale, blue light special, liquidation sale, half-off sale, warehouse sale, tent sale ...
1.What does the passage mainly deal with?
A. How to save money in shopping.
B. Different kinds of sales.
C. Shoppers’ ways to earn money.
D. Reasons for the popularity of sales.
2.What do we call the sale if it starts before the sun rises?
A. A “back-to-school sale”.
B. A “midnight madness” event.
C. An “early bird special” sale.
D. A “buy one, get one free” sale.
3.Why do parents like a “back-to-school sale”?
A. Because it has a variety of school supplies.
B. Because it is held at the beginning of the school year.
C. Because it provides plenty school uniforms.
D. Because they can save money.
4.What’s the purpose of some owners who do “going out of business” sale repeatedly?
A. They want to close the business permanently.
B. They want to give special offers to customers.
C. They want to sell all their goods in a short period of time.
D. They want to cheat the customers into buying their goods.

There are some new drivers going back to school. Teens who have recently gotten their driver's licenses may be taking the wheel to school this fall. However, parents fear when their teen starts driving. And it turns out that such parental fears are justified, so it's worth reviewing how to keep your teen safe while he or she is behind the wheel.
Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death among US teens. Drivers 16 to 19 years old are at the greatest risk of crashes. In fact, their risk is 4 times greater than that of older drivers. The teens at the greatest risk are those who are male, those carrying other teenage passengers in the car, and those still in their first year of driving. Nearly 50 percent of teen deaths related to automobile crashes happen on Fridays, Saturdays, or Sundays between the hours of 3 pm and midnight.
Why are teens at higher risk of motor vehicle crashes?
Development. Teens haven't completely matured mentally and have greater risktaking behaviors, possibly because they tend to underestimate the risk associated with a particular behavior. Teens also have a greater tendency to speed and to drive too close to the cars in front of them.
No seatbelts. Teens have the lowest rate of seatbelt use among all driving groups.
Alcohol. A least 25 percent of motor vehicle deaths in teens are related to drinking alcohol.
Technological distractions(分散注意力的事)．Cellphones，texting，MP3 players，and the like can all distract drivers greatly—and who more than teenagers?
Be aware of your teen's driving practices and discuss safe driving habits when opportunities present themselves. Check out the applications and devices now available for restricting your teen's use of technology while driving. Some applications alert you to the danger when your teen is texting while the vehicle is moving. Another device blocks incoming and outgoing texts when the car is running—incoming messages get an automatic reply (eg. “I'm driving right now”), and phone calls go directly to voicemail. You can also get notifications if your teen tries to shut off the program. There are also GPS programs that let you know your new driver's whereabouts at all times. All in all, you can't be too cautious when teaching your teen how to be safe on the road.
1.What factor is least related to the teen drivers' high risks of crashes?
A．Drivers' age. B．Passengers' sex.
C．Driving experience. D．Driving time.
2.Teens probably turn away their attention from driving when they are ________.
A．using no seatbelts B．drinking water
C．carrying passengers D．answering cellphones
3.According to the passage, which should be prevented during teens' driving?
A．Texting. B．GPS programs.
C．Automated replies. D．Voicemail.
4.The author writes the last paragraph in order to ________.
A．offer parents practical suggestions
B．summarize teens' driving practices
C．advocate different driving habits
D．set an example for the teens

It’s almost time to head back to school, and well, it’s never too early to start shopping for those school supplies. If you have some extra cash left over after shopping for backpacks and number two pencils, then treat your kid to some cool electronics you can borrow from them later.
Acer Aspire One: Net books are great for many reasons. Parents will love them because they’re extremely affordable and light compared to the average laptop.

Fuji Fine Pix Z20fd: This sub-$200 digital camera is the perfect thing for any high school student. Available in five eye-catching colors, the Fine Pix Z20fd is a 10-megapixel(兆像素) camera.

This is certainly an affordable camera for photo-lovers of any age.
Mimobot: USB flash drives are all pretty much the same, but if you want to treat your teen to a hip flash drive, check out Momobot.com. Each drive is packed with cool wallpaper, digital magazines, and so on. You can find them in 1GB, 2GB, 4GB and 8GB capacities(容量) at the price of $35-$100.
Samsung S2: Regardless of what your teen may tell you, there are other music players out there packed with plenty of great features.

Brush turkeys are heading back into urban Sydney areas, according to an environmental expert, and there is not much people can do about it.
The Australian brush turkey has “big feet”. They damage people’s beloved backyards by raking up dirt to make large nests which can sometimes hold up to 56 eggs in one mound(土堆). This is because one male brush turkey can breed(交配繁殖) with up to six females who can lay up to 12 eggs.
The population of brush turkeys in Australia was severely reduced along the east coast in the 1960s after coming close to extinction during the Depression as they were easy to hunt for food. As a result, they become a protected species in the 1970s which made it illegal to shoot them.
“In the 1980s, they took over Brisbane, and Sydney is about 10 years behind what happened up here,” Professor Darryl Jones, deputy director of the Environmental Futures Research Institute at Griffith University, said. “Once they get into the city they work out there’s a lot of food and they have a fair bit of protection.”
While brush turkeys have cultural significance in Queensland, they can be annoying for many in Sydney. Former Central Coast resident(居民) Paul told 702 ABC Sydney that he had “an ongoing battle for years” with brush turkeys that built nests in his garden.
“We had plague proportions(瘟疫之灾) when we lived on the Central Coast. I was trying to grow food and vegetables but I had to give up,” he said. “They just completely dug them up. I was fighting a losing battle.”
But Sydney resident Joy thinks differently. “Brush turkeys are part of nature,” she said. “I’ve been able to successfully have a flower garden and a vegetable garden and have brush turkeys wander through the yard. The way I’ve done it is just to put sticks in the ground around the plants. I haven’t had any problems at all and people need to think of ways to overcome these problems rather than kill animals.”
1.What’s one characteristic of brush turkeys?
A.They are afraid of humans. B.They often build mounds to hide eggs.
C.They usually live in coastal areas. D.A female lays a dozen eggs each time.
2.Why were brush turkeys nearly dying out during the Depression?
A.They were over-hunted for their meat. B.They couldn’t find enough food.
C.They were hated and hunted by people. D.Their natural habitats were destroyed.
3.What troubled Paul was that_____.
A.a plague broke out on the Central Coast.
B.he was sometimes attacked by brush turkeys.
C.his garden was messed up by brush turkeys.
D.he had no place to grow food and vegetables.
4.What is Joy’s opinion of brush turkeys?
A.They do much harm to gardeners.
B.Their number should be controlled.
C.Sydney is suitable for them to survive.
D.People should live in harmony with them.
