How I Turned to Be Optimistic
I began to grow up that winter night when my parents told me that we might soon be leaving for America.We were on the bus then.I was crying, and all the people on the bus were turning around to look at me.I remember I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio programs for school children to which I listened every morning.
I do not remember myself crying for this reason again.In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives.When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.The country I was leaving was hardly in my head then.
The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once.For the first two years in New York, I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves.I did not quite know what I was or what I should be.Mother remarried, and things became even more difficult for me.Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other.I was often sad, and saw no end to “hard times”.
My responsibilities (责任) in the family increased a lot because I knew English better than everyone else at home.I wrote letters, filled out forms, took my grandparents to the doctor, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives (代表).
From my experiences I have learned one important rule: almost all common troubles eventually (逐渐地) go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.
1.Did the writer feel happy when she first knew that her family might soon be leaving for America?
2.How did the writer get to know America before she went there?
3.What made the writer feel lost for the first two years in New York?
4.Why did the writer's responsibilities in the family increase a lot?
5.What does the writer want to tell us from her experiences?

Do you live in a city? Do you know how cities began? Long long ago, the world had only a few thousand people. These people moved from one place to another. They moved over the land, hunting animals for food. No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food. But when they did, their lives changed. They did not have to move houses any more. They could stay in one place and grow it. People began to live near each other, so the first village grew. Many people came to work in the villages, and these villages became larger and larger. Then people had machines, life in the villages changed again. People built factories. More and more people lived near the factories. So the villages grew into cities. Some of them grew very big. Today, it’s strange that some people are moving back to small villages. Can you tell me why ?
1.What did the villages grow into after people built factories?

How to Start and Keep a Good Conversation Going
How to Start a good conversation
“Hi,my name is Sara.”“I’m Frank. Nice to meet you.”
Introductions,like the one above,are a great way to begin a good conversation.When you introduce yourself,be confident and comfortable.That will make others comfortable,too.After the introduction,wait a bit.If the other person doesn’t ask a question,you ask one.Starting with a question shows interest in the other person.You could ask” What do you do?”or“How do you know our host?” But asking something a little different shows you are clearly different.“What did you do last weeked?”and“Have you seen any good movies recently?” are two topics you could ask about.Another good way to start with is” Tell me about yourself.”Most people love talking about themselves.
How to keep a good conversation going
As the other person begins to answer your question,look for the same opinion.If you ask about last weekend,the person could talk about a bike ride they took.When the person finishes his opinions,you could mention an experience that you had with biking.You can then move on to discussing other sports the person may be interested in.
When the other person is talking,be interested in them.Listen carefully to their answers.Don’t look around the room.That gives the other person the message that you are not really interested in them.
If you are answering the question,don’t go on and on.Answer the question and then stop.A good conversation is like a tennis game where the ball goes back and forth.
With some practice,you’ll be able to start and keep a conversation going with anyone!

Do you go to school by bus? It is very important for you to know how to be safe when taking a bus, no matter whether you like it or not.
First, don’t run to the bus stop, but walk. While you are at the bus stop, you should wait in a safe place. Do not run or play while waiting. And never get into a car with a stranger.
Second, don’t talk in a loud voice when you are on the bus, so the driver will not be disturbed(打扰). If you need to talk with the bus driver, you’d better wait until the bus stop. Never throw things on the bus or out of the windows. Never play near the emergency exit(紧急出口). When there is a fire, the most important thing is to break the window with a hammer or any sharp things and then jump out.
Third, when you are getting off the bus, make sure you walk(not run) three more steps away from the door. This is the best place to be around a bus. Stay away from the bus wheels and watch out for moving cars!
Last, if you leave something on the bus, never return to the bus to get it. The driver may not see you come back and he may begin moving the bus. Also, if you drop something near the bus, tell the driver before you try to pick it up, so he will know where you are.

If you think you are too shy and want to be a little more outgoing, try the following .You can make it.
