When Oakland High School in California moved into a new building, the students and teachers noticed a strong smell. Then almost half of the students began to have a headache and a cough. Experts (專家) came to find the cause of the sickness. Finally, they discovered that the air in the building was not safe to breathe.

Eileen Collins is the first woman ever chosen to be a spaceship pilot. She is also the first woman to command (指揮) a spaceship. Today she has flown more than 5, 000 hours in more than 30 kinds of airplanes.

   Talking about high school, she said, “I began reading all kinds of books about famous women pilots. These women went and flew into dangerous places. Their stories encouraged me.” In 1977 Eileen got a pilot’s license and the following year she graduated(畢業(yè)) from university. She went into space in 1999 at the age of 43. She took with her the hopes and dreams of a nation of young people on the earth.

   Eileen is not only an astronaut (宇航員) but also a wife and the mother of a young daughter. She has short curly hair and friendly brown eyes. She met her husband, Pat, while they were together in the air force(空軍).

When she was named as the First Woman Spaceship Commander in 1998, Eileen smiled and said, “When I was a child, I dreamed about space. It was only a dream that I would be one of the astronauts someday. I hope all children will be encouraged to reach for their dreams, when they see I go into space. I believe dreams do come true!”

“If he doesn’t call me, I’m going to die!”

That’s a pretty normal feeling. It means you are “in love” ---kind of. It’s puppy love (早戀、初戀)，not real love--- not true love, yet.

Puppy love is common among students all over the world. In the West, people think puppy love is a healthy part of a teenager’s life. 1.In China, parents and teachers think it is a problem.

Puppy love is beautiful. It’s cool to love someone, or be loved by someone else instead of your mother or your dog. It can make you a better person. 2.You will know how to use your love to help other people.

If you find yourself “in love”, it’s OK, but …wait! 3.現(xiàn)在你有許多重要的事情要做。Think of these questions: Will you still love him or her ten years later? Do you have enough education to find a good job and live a happy life with the person you love in the future? What would you do if you found someone better than him or her? I bet (打賭) you are not sure of these answers. Why? 4. 因為你太小還不懂真愛。

5.True love will come when you grow up. Now, you should try to be the best person you can be, and do the very best you can. That means doing well at school and being a good son or daughter first.
