Young children don’t have the skills or knowledge to stay safe in heavy traffic. The following tips（忠告）will be helpful for you to keep your children safe in heavy traffic.

Children learn about road safety by watching others. As parents, make sure that you always set good examples. Your children will follow you and think it’s OK to do like you.

Teach your children to pay attention to traffic lights when you cross the road together with them. This helps them understand when it’s safe to cross. Make sure that you walk between your children and traffic, and hold their hands all the time.

When your children are a little older, you can start to tell them the importance of traffic knowledge. ①Let them start to understand the reasons why they need to be so careful. Talk with them about road signs and traffic rules.

Ask your children to play in a safe place. Never let them ride bikes on the road ___②___ an adult present (在场) at rush hour.

The most important thing you can do is to keep your children from getting hurt，so parents encourage them to follow traffic rules. After knowing about traffic rules, they’ll volunteer to obey them. In this way, they’ll be careful enough to keep themselves away from danger.

阅读下面短文，按要求完成各项任务。

Many people run for exercise. But what will you do if you are not a "born" runner or jogger (慢跑者)? You may still want a kind of exercise that’s inexpensive and easy to do. Why not try walking?

Walking requires no special equipment (装备). It is a kind of exercise that almost any normal, healthy person can do. Walking is good for your health like jogging or running; it will just take longer. Jogging and running make your heart work harder than walking. They also put more stress on your legs and feet than walking does.

The problem with walking is that most people don’t take it seriously. But there’s a big difference between serious walking and the walking that most of us do. Walking, like jogging, should have a steady and continuous motion (稳健而持续的动作).

If you want to get your exercise by walking, you need to have your own walking plan. After all, runners and joggers set goals for themselves. Walkers need goals, too. You also need to set a course to walk. Start by walking about 15~30 minutes a day. Increase your time and distance (距离) slowly. And try increasing your walking speed little by little.

If you prefer to jog or run, follow the same advice. Start off slowly. Spend most of the first few days just walking. Then, start walking and running on the same day. Run or jog a short distance, then walk for a while, then, run, then walk. Follow that pattern for 15--30 minutes a day. Slowly make each run longer and each walk shorter. Later on, you can increase your distance, speed and exercise time.

With the holidays coming up, lots of people will be having parties. Want to make sure you’re a perfect host（主人）or guest(客人)? Now it’s a good time to brush up on your party manners.

When inviting guests to your party, send invitations to their homes instead of passing them out at school. This way, you won’t hurt the feeling of classmates you didn’t invite.

（1）Wait for all your guests to arrive before starting any activities. If people at the party don’t know each other, make sure you introduce everyone.

If your guests bring gifts for you, thank each gift----giver as you open his/her present. After the party, be sure to send a hand-written thank-you card to each guest, telling them how much you appreciate their gifts.

When you receive a invitation to a party, be sure to let the host know whether you can come.

Arrive on time. Bring a gift to a birthday party. （2）If（如果） it’s a holiday party, ask the host if （是否）there’s anything you can bring. Adults often bring a desert or a bottle of wine to a party, even when the host tells them that he/she doesn’t need anything. Young people don’t have to do this, but it’s always polite to ask.

Be friendly to the other guests. Remember to say “Please” and “Thank you”! When you leave, thank the host for the party.

　①A recent report found that kids 30 years ago could run faster and longer than kids today. ②The report found that today’s kids were 15% less healthy than kids from 30 years ago.

You’re a 13-year-old girl. Your mom was the same kind of kid when she was your age. Now imagine we could set up a mile race between you and your mom from 30 years ago. The study shows your mom would probably beat you in the race by 1.5 minutes. It was the same for boys. A boy from 30 years ago would beat a boy today.

The scientists who did the study think there are some reasons for the big fall in health. First, too many of today’s kids are overweight. That makes it harder for them to run fast. Second, kids today don’t get enough exercise. The doctor says that kids should take exercise at least 60 minutes every day. That’s why ③学生在学校上体育课是重要的。

So what should kids do? If you don’t want your mom and dad to think they are faster than you, don’t spend a lot of time looking through the Internet, watching TV or movies. Instead, do things that will get you up and to move.
