【推荐1】Peter had sent milk to the families on Prince Edward Street for thirty years. All that knew him loved him.
Every morning at five, Peter arrived at the milk company’s stables(马厩), saying to Josephy, “Good morning! My old friend!” Then, the two started their day proudly. Without any order from Peter, the coach would roll down the street. The horse stopped at the first house. There, Joseph would wait perhaps thirty seconds for Peter to get down off his seat and put a bottle of milk at the front door.
One day, the manager of the company came to check the early morning milk deliveries. Jack, the foreman(领班)of the stables, pointed to Peter and said, “ See how the horse listens and how he turns his head toward Peter?”
“Yeah! But Peter’s getting old.” said the manager, “Tell him it is time for him to have a rest.”
But Peter said, “My life will be nothing if I can’t drive Joseph every day. We are two old men! Let us wear out together. When Joseph is ready to leave, then I too will do so.”
Then one cold morning, after about two years, Jack said. “Peter, your horse, Joseph, didn’t wake up. Go over and see him.”
Peter took one step forward, then turned. “No…no…You…you don’t understand, Jack.”
Now, Jack looked into Peter’s eyes. He saw a dead, lifeless look in them. So he said, “Take the day off, Peter!” Peter stepped into the street. Then there came a warning shout and a screech(尖锐的刹车声)…

To many students, joining social media “circles” is now more important than making new friends in real life. And it is easy. If you have a mobile phone, you can download many apps such as Weibo, QQ and Wechat.
“I love to check my friends’ updates. I also enjoy news and jokes shared on social media,” said Wang Wei, 14, from a middle school in Shenzhen. While enjoying these, Wang distances himself from real life.
“I love playing the plane-shooting game on WeChat, but have no interest in playing chess with my classmates,” said Wang.
Deng Yunyun, 14, from Xuhui Middle School in Shanghai, said that social media had affected his normal life. Last month, his school held a basketball match, and a student hurt his leg. Instead of giving him some help, students were busy updating their blogs about the accident. “I think they need to learn to balance their real and online lives, and what worries parents and teachers a lot is safety." said Deng.
Many students are happy to tell their interests and personal information to their social media friends.
"And this could bring them danger,” said Miss Wang, a teacher from Shenzhen. “ For example, WeChat’s shake-shake function allows users to connect to other nearby users. " Also the police warn about the risks of making friends in this way.
“Be careful. Do not use the locating function at any moment, do not give your name, and do not post the photos of your community.” said Wang.

【推荐2】①" Beep, beep," goes the car horn(喇叭). You've got dressed, but you've not had time to eat breakfast. You run out of the front door swinging your school backpack, and jump into the waiting car.
