Many earthquakes happen every year. Some of these earthquakes are very strong. When they happen in cities, they can be very serious. Many people will be hurt or die in the earthquakes. Knowing some ways to protect yourself will help to keep you safe in the earthquake.
If you are indoors when the earthquake happens, the safest place is under a strong table or desk. Sitting on the floor in a doorway or close to a wall is safer than standing in the middle of a room. Remember to protect your head and neck with your arms. Stay away from windows, tall furniture and pictures or anything that may fall on you. Do not try to run out of the building.
If you are out of doors, move to clear areas. Get away from buildings and trees. Be very careful of fallen power lines.
The danger is not over when the strong shaking stops. There will be some shocks after most earthquakes. We call them aftershocks and they sometimes can be more dangerous than the first earthquake.
When it is safe for you to move around, check the people near you. Some may need help. You may feel afraid, but you should try to stay calm. That is the most important thing to do in the earthquake.

You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school. School is also the place where you learn to get on well with people. But this is not always easy. What can you do if you just don’t like one of your classmates?
If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others. We can not change the way that other people do, so it is important to learn to live happily with them.
Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things differently. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep a temperate and open mind.
You need to remember an old saying, “Treat others how you want to be treated”. If you tolerate something, it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change.
It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make everyone’s life easier. Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests. The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.

Students who get tired of looking at the four walls of a classroom might like to take the nature course being offered by Carvel College again this summer. Groups of about a dozen students each, led by an experienced guide, will go on ten-day camping trips to the mountains to study the plants and animals that grow and live there.
Students carry their own things, which includes sleeping bags, warm clothing, food and water, and other useful tools. And what do the students do all day? Well, as soon as the sun comes up, they eat breakfast and start climbing up the mountain trail to the next campground, which is five to ten miles away. As the students take notes, the guide points out different plants and animals alongside the trail. The climb is usually over by early afternoon, so the group spends the rest of the day resting or swimming in a mountain lake. Before dinner each night, they all come together and discuss the day’s activities.
At the end of the course, the students write reports using the information they have collected. But they don’t mind at all. What they do mind is leaving the beauty of the wilderness and the good friends they’ve made to return to their normal lives in the city.
1.What can the course offer to the students?
A. Better grades in tests.
B. Free vacations in mountains.
C. A different learning experience.
D. Better chance to study in Carvel College.
2.How far does a student have to walk throughout the course?
A. About five to ten miles.
B. About two hundred miles.
C. About fifty to one hundred miles.
D. About sixty to one hundred and twenty miles
3.What do the students have to do before dinner?
A. Wash themselves up in a mountain lake.
B. Attend classes by the experienced guide.
C. Write about what they see along the trail.
D. Review what they learn through discussion.
4.What can we tell about the course?
A. They will change campgrounds everyday.
B. The students have to learn all by themselves.
C. Pens and books will be useless in the course.
D. Carvel College will provide everything for the students.
5.From the last paragraph we know the students are_______.
A. serious with the final report
B. unwilling to go back to the city
C. looking forward to returning home
D. too tired to stay in the course any longer

Got a bad grade, afraid to show my parents 
Report cards are going out this Friday, and I realized I had failed in chemistry. My parents are probably going to kill me for that. What should I do?
Lady Rita
Answers
It is better to be honest with them and tell them it is a very difficult course and you are trying your hardest. Promise them you will work harder. Study a little every night so when your next test comes you'll be much more prepared.

You should learn from insects—when they try to cross a wall, they fall down again and again until at some time they get success.
Male T

Naughty
I never showed my parents my test scores. It’s none of their business!
