One will feel happy when others flatter （奉承）him in his face. It is said that the best way of flattering someone is to give him a “top hat” to    73  .
A student was going to leave the capital to become an official in a city far away. Before he started, he came to say    74   to his teacher.
“It is not an    75   job to be a good official,” his teacher warned. “You must be strict    76   yourself and never be careless.”
“Don’s worry about me, sir.” the student answered. “I have already    77   one hundred top hats, which will    78   those people quite happy.”
“But we are real gentlemen!    79   could a real gentleman do such a thing?” his teacher was a bit angry. “Never forget    80   I taught you in class!”
“You are always right, sir. I also hate such things. But sir,    81   no one real gentleman like yourself can be seen in the world now,” said the student. It seemed that he had to do so.
After hearing this, the teacher was    82  . “What you said is true!”
“Of my one hundred top hats, I have ninety-nine    83   .” the student said to his friend later.

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.

Most schools are trying hard to improve their lunch programs and they want to offer the best food they can.
Even if your school provides healthy options(選擇)，you may still want to have something delicious outside.
How do you take control? Take a packed lunch to school!
Here are the four reasons to pack your lunch and snacks at least twice a week.
Control  Have you ever waited in the lunch line only to find when you get to the front that you don't like what they're serving?
Variety  If you're eating the same food all the time , your body probably feels ready for a change. Packing lunch a couple of times a week means you can enjoy some favorites that you might not find at every school.
Money Serving Packing healthy snacks so that you needn’t go out for a fast-food lunch, chocolate or a soda! If so, you will save much money. And you can buy something you need.
Warm Feeling   Remember when your mom or dad used to pack your lunch? Pack a lunch for yourself, maybe that is your favorite healthy food.
Whether you pack or eat in the cafeteria(自助食堂)，what's important is that you make right choices. If you are worried that cafeteria doesn't offer enough healthy choices, try to make changes. Ask a teacher or someone in food service for advice on hoe to get started.
