( )1. Tina has been invited to one of her friends" birthday party next Sunday. She is worried about this
now because she has never taken part in any birthday party, and nobody can tell her something
about it.
( )2. Mike"s favorite is playing sports. He gets up early at 6:00 every morning. Then he goes out to
exercise by the riverside. He runs along the river for nearly half an hour, and then takes a walk
for a few minutes. He goes back home for breakfast at 7:30. But he always feels weak after
morning exercises.
( )3. Jeff is interested in the computer. His parents bought him a Dell computer last month. He wants
to surf the Internet. But he heard that there are many terrible things for kids on the Internet. His
parents don"t have the knowledge about this.
( )4. Linda"s parents will be away for China on business for more than half a year very soon. She can"t
go with them because she has to go to school. She will be at home alone. Nobody will take care
of her, and she can"t do chores herself.
( )5. Vera is a clever girl. She does well in her studies. But Vera doesn"t like playing with her
classmates, and she feels bored when her classmates ask her questions about studies. So she
can"t get along well with her classmates.
A
Don"t give your personal information such as your address, telephone number, etc. on the Internet
without your parents" permission. Never agree to get together with someone you "meet" online and never
send a person your picture or anything else without first checking with your parents.
B
On the day of the party, make sure you arrive on time and show that you"re happy to be there. Wear
something suitable. Greet your friend with a "Happy Birthday" and hand over the gift. Make sure you have
put a card with your name on it.
C
Always smile, so people don"t think you are serious and hard to get along with. Be polite and modest.
If you are rude, people will not like you. If people have troubles, you help them. Then, when you have
troubles, they will help you, too.
D
Parents should get the kids to do their chores around the house. If their clothes need washing, they
wash them themselves. Let the kids prepare their own meals. Let them clean their room, cook for them-
selves, wash the dishes, etc.
E
Let"s say that the last time you eat something at night is at 6 or 7 pm (just an example). The following
day, you don"t eat breakfast but wait until you finish sports - you"ve gone many hours with nothing in your
stomach. Your body has to work hard. It"s not good. What"s more, consider reducing the time and
strength of your morning exercises.

Saturday, March 24th We have arrived in the hot, wet city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand(泰国). All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North. Tuesday, March 27th Bangkok is wonderful and surprising! The places are interesting. We visited the famous market which was on water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai. Friday, March 30th Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life-no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say "hello". Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year. | |||
