Are you carrying too much on your back at school? I’m sure lots of children of your age will say “Yes”. Not only the students in China have this problem, but children in the United States also have heavy school bags.
Doctors are starting to worry about young students’ back and neck because their school bags are too heavy for them.
“It’s hard for me to go upstairs with my heavy bag,” said Rick Hammond, an ll-year-old student in the USA.
Rick is among students who have school bags with two straps(帶子),and many other students choose rolling(有滾輪的) bags.
But even with rolling bags ,getting upstairs is still a problem for children .Doctors say students should carry no more than 10% to 15% of their own body weight (重量)。
Scott Bautch, a back doctor, said children under Grade 4 should carry no more than 10% of their weight and older children shouldn’t stay with over 15% , because their bodies are still growing.
Teachers and parents should do some things to help children. And the best answer is to have less homework!

　　Do you feel a little sleepy after lunch? Well, that’s normal. Your body naturally slows down then. What should you do about it? Don’t reach for a coffee! Instead, take a nap.
　　It’s good to have a daily nap. First of all , you are more efficient（有效的） after napping. You remember things better and make fewer mistakes. Also, you can learn things more easily after taking a nap. A nap may increase your self-confidence and make you more active. It may even cheer you up. But, there are some simple rules you should follow about taking a nap. First, take a nap in the middle of day, about eight hours after you wake up. Next, a 20-minute nap is best.

You won’t have to keep looking at the clock, so you don’t oversleep.

On the night of May 9, 2011, the famous musician Gao Xiaosong ran his car into three other cars in Beijing, because he drank(飲酒) too much.

Cars are lots of fun, but they could also be dangerous. We have to be careful when we drive them or ride in them.
It’s always a good idea to put on your seat belt (安全帶) when you’re in a car. Why? Think about this example: You put an egg on a skateboard and give it a push. If the skateboard hits a stone, it will stop, but the egg won’t. It will fly through the air, hit the ground and break.
Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a stone, the egg won’t go flying; it will stay safely on the skateboard.
Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts in 1849.
Air bags are also very important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn’t enough. If the car is going really fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear them. Most new cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something, its air bags will come out quickly in less than one second to keep the people inside safe.
小題1:The passage mainly tells us ______.
A．two important ways to keep safe in cars
B．how air bags work to make cars safe
C．how seat belts work to make cars safe
D．why we must tie the egg to the skateboard
小題2: The writer gives the example of the egg to ______.
A．tell us that eggs are easy to break
B．show how to wear a seat belt
C．show why it’s important to wear a seat belt in a car
D．tell us what a skateboard is
小題3: Seat belts can make us safer because ______.
A．we are interested in them
B．they can stop us from hitting other cars
C．they can help us stay safely on the seats
D．they are made of strong materials
小題4: Air bags are important for cars because ______.
A．they are made of plastic
B．they can also help us to keep safe in a car
C．they can keep cars running slowly
D．they’re put in front of and next to the seats
小題5: Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?
A．When a car hits something, its air bags will come out a few minutes later.
B．It won’t be dangerous if there are seat belts or air bags in a car.
C．Now most of new cars still have only one air bag.
D．Volvo was the first to use seat belts.

What is your favorite color? Do you kike yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life. Do you like blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy , would rather follow than lead.
Colors do influence our moods(情緒)。 A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.

The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than on any other bridge in the area-----until it was repainted green.

Put an ice cube from your fridge into a glass of water. You have a piece of string(線) 10 centimeters long. The problem is to take out that piece of ice with the help of the string. But you must not touch the ice with your fingers.
You may ask your friends to try to do that when you are having dinner together. There is a saltcellar on the table. You must use salt when you carry out this experiment.
First you put the string across the piece of ice. Then put some salt on the ice. Salt makes ice melt(融化). The ice round the string will begin to melt. But when it melts, it will lose heat. The cold ice cube will make the salt water freeze(結(jié)冰) again.
After a minute or two you may raise the piece of string and with it you will raise your piece of ice!
This experiment can be very useful to you. If, for example, there is ice near the door of your house, you must use very much salt to melt all the ice. If you don’t put enough salt, the water will freeze again.
小題1:We must use           when we carry out this experiment.
A．a(chǎn) fridgeB．some foodC．a(chǎn) tableD．some salt
小題2:How long will it take to carry out this experiment?
