following information, your life will be much safer.
● Always notice the environment around you. You shouldn"t walk
alone outside. Make sure where the public phones are. If anything dangerous
happens, you can find them easily.

go to the other way, let the person understand that you know he or she is after
you. Next, don"t go home at once. You are safer in the street , but it is
dangerous for you to be alone in your home or in lift(电梯).

minutes earlier before the bus leaves. This stops other people from studying
you. On the bus, don"t sit alone. Sit behind the driver or with other people.

Mean Time. This is because in 1884, many nations met to decide how to prevent the confusion (混乱)
made by almost every town having its own time.
Such a time rule was devised (设计) by Sir Sanford Fleming (1827-1915). He was an engineer
who lived in Canada. He held a meeting in 1884 to discuss the time problem. He suggested that there
should be 24 meridians (子午线) dividing the world int0 24 time zones (时区). The zero meridian
would pass through the village of Greenwich near London. The time at Greenwich would be called
Greenwich Mean Time, and at each of the 24 meridian lines, the time would go forward or backwards
by one hour.
Twenty-seven nations agreed to this suggestion, and since then GMT has been the centre of
time-keeping for all nations. Most nations have only one time zone. However, large nations such as
the USA and Australia are divided into several time zones.

Have you ever had an embarrassing (尴尬的) experience? Last week we asked readers to tell us about embarrassing experience. We received thousands of letters ! Here is a selection. Tony : My most embarrassing experience happened when I had just left university. I had just started teaching in a Liverpool secondary school. One morning my alarm clock didn"t ring. I woke up at half past eight and school began at nine. I quickly washed, dressed, jumped into my car and rushed to school. When I arrived, the students had already gone into class. I didn"t go to the office, but went straight into class. After two or three minutes the students began laughing, and I couldn"t understand why! Suddenly I looked down and understood. I had put on one black shoe and one brown shoe ! Henry : The most embarrassing experience I"ve ever had, happened two years ago. After seeing a film, my wife and I had lunch in our favourite restaurant in town. Then we decided to take a walk along the street. The street was very busy and we started holding hands. Suddenly my wife saw a dress that she liked in a shop window, and stopped. I started looking at some watches in the next window. After a minute or two I reached for my wife"s hand. There was a loud scream, and a woman slapped my face. I hadn"t taken my wife"s hand. I"d taken the hand of a complete stranger ! James: My wife and I had decided to buy a new house, and I"d made an appointment to see our bank manager. I"d never met him before. I went into town in my car and I was lucky enough to find a parking space outside the bank. I"d just started reversing (倒车) into the space when another car made its way into it. I was irritated! I opened my window and shouted at the man in the car. He ignored me and walked away. It took me twenty minutes to find another place. As soon as I had parked the car, I rushed back to the bank. I was ten minutes late for my appointment. I went to the manager"s office, knocked and walked in. The manager was sitting behind his desk. He was the man who had taken my parking space! |
