     Each year several thousand people are killed on the road in Great Britain. Every year between one and
  two hundred thousand people are injured, or killed in road accidents.
     If you are in England and if you listen to the eight o'clock news from BBC, you will often hear news of
 road accidents. You may hear something like this" On last Monday evening, at about twenty minutes to
 ten, a cyclist was knocked down by a truck at crossing of Oak Road and High Street in Croydon. The
 cyclist has died from his injuries. Anyone who saw the accident please communicate (聯(lián)系) with New
 Scotland Yard, telephone number Whitehall one, two, one, two. "
     Accidents are often caused by carelessness. If everybody obeys the rules, the roads will be much safer.
 How can we make the road safer?
     In Breat Britain traffic: keeps on to the left. Motor-cars, trucks, buses and cyclists must all keep to the
 left side of the road. In most other countries traffic keeps to the right.
     Before crossing the road, stop and look both ways. Look right, look left again. Then, if  you are sure
 that the road is clear, that there is nothing coming, it is safe to cross the road. If you see small children, or
  very old people, or blind people, waiting to cross the road, it is kind act to help them to cross the road in
  safety.
     We must teach young children to cross the road safely. We must always give them a good example.
 Small children mustn't play in the street.

     Each year Ben is glad when school is closed on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Ben knows that this day
honors an important man, but Ben does not feel connected to him. However, the small-world theory (理論)
connects Ben to Dr. King. Ben's mom (0) has a close friend, Amy (1). Amy's uncle, Mark (2), once met and
spoke to John Carter (3), the son of President Jimmy Carter (4). Jimmy Carter knew Dr. King (5). In a way,
Ben is only "five people a-way" from Martin Luther King Jr.
     The small-world theory says that everyone in the world is connected through a short chain (鏈條) of
people they know. Another name of this chain is degrees of separation. Each degree is a step that separates
a person from someone he or she does not know. There are zero degrees of separation between a person
and the people he or she knows directly. This means that there are zero degrees between Ben and his mom.
There is one degree of separation when just one person separates someone from a person he or she does not
know. Ben knows his mom, but he hasn't met her close friend Amy. Therefore, Ben is one degree away from
Amy. As the chain continues. Amy's uncle, Mark, is two degrees. John Carter is three degrees, and his father
is four degrees. Dr. King is five degrees away from Ben. The theory says that there are no more than six
degrees of separation between any two people in the world.
     The small-world theory has a lot to do with math. The theory assumes (假定) that each per-son knows
100 people. Each one of those 100 people knows 50 different people. Each of those 50 people knows another
50 people, and so on. When someone continues the calculation' to six degrees, it is like this: 100 × 50 × 50 ×
50 × 50 × 50 = 31.25 × 109. This number is greater than 31 billion (a billion=a thousand million). There are
over 6 billion people in the world. These numbers show it is possible that six degrees of separation could
include everyone in the world.
     Does the small-world theory work? No one has ever proved it. Maybe the theory just invites people to
think a little more about their places in the world.
1. Ben is two degrees away from ______.
A. Jimmy Carter
B. John Carter
C. Amy
D. Mark
2. What is the meaning of "degrees of separation" in Paragraph 2?
A. The chain to connect people.
B. The relations between people.
C. The steps of knowing strangers.
D.The separation between strangers.
3. What is the small-world theory mainly about?
A. How far Ben is away from Dr. King.
B. How many people one can get to know.
C. How people are connected in the world.
D. How the degrees of separation are set up.
4. We can learn from the article that ______.
A. the small-world theory works
B. more research is needed to prove the theory
C. six degrees are needed to know the strangers
D. the writer's purpose is to help people find out their places

     Each nation has many good people who help to take care of others. For example, some high school and
college students in the United States often spend many hours as volunteers in hospitals, orphanages or homes
for the aged. They read books to the people in these places, or they just visit them and play games with them
or listen to their problems.

fishing trips and help them to get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.

    Each of us would like to be trusted by parents, because we all want to get freedom. Parents are more likely
to give us our freedom if they trust us. If you want your parents to trust you more, you have to show them
through your actions. 
    Let your parents know what's going on at school and with your friends. If you truly can be trusted, then
you have nothing to hide, right? Keep your bedroom door open when you are back. Do not be crazy when they
see what you are looking at on the Internet. Invite your friends to your house to meet your parents.
    When you do something wrong, it can break trust. Broken trust takes a long time to rebuild.
    It's not easy dealing with your parents when you've broken their trust. But, it can be done. It's not talking
about groveling (低聲下氣) and sweet-talking them into trust. I'm talking about getting them to respect you
again.
    I find it easy to make the mistake of no telling my parents things I've done wrong, hoping they won't find
out. There are lots of reasons:
    I don't want to get into trouble;
    I don't want them to be disappointed or get mad at me;
    I don't want to lose their trust;
    I don't think they will ever find out.
    And the list goes on and on. But they find out somehow, and then you're in hot water. Of course, even if
Mom and Dad never find out, you still know about.
     Most parents will respect you more for coming to them and telling them yourself. Doing so shows honesty,
responsibility and maturity (成熟). If you can't tell them face to face, you can try writing a note.
    Trust can't be built in a day or even a week, but you can gradually do things to help your parents build trust
in you.
1. What would children like to get from their parents according to the passage?
[     ]
A. Money.

[     ]

B. Tell them not to be disappointed.
C. Introduce your friends to them.

3. What's the meaning of the phrase "in hot water"?

A. 在熱水里
B. 遇到麻煩
C. 想喝熱水
D. 洗熱水澡
4. Which of the following is TRUE?
[     ]
A. It's easy for children to tell their parents the things they have done wrong.
B. The parents will respect and trust you more if you tell them yourself.
C. Trust can be built soon if children make mistakes.
D. Parents never believe their children if trust is broken.
