I am writing as a member of One-on-One, the sixth-grade mentoring (指导)group. Our group is two years old and made up of 14 students. Our task is to help students reach their goals through mentoring. We hope the readers of this school newspaper will join our group. This is my first year as a mentor, but I have already learned that everyone taking part in mentoring gets something out of it.
I was assigned (分配)to a mentor last year. Mentoring was one of the best things that happened to me. I was able to turn the corner at an important point in my studies, going from nearly failing math to passing it. It still amazes me that I completely changed from almost hating math to loving it! Would you believe I'm even thinking of studying math in college? Even if I don't, I have skills that I will use for the rest of my life. My own experience made me feel certain of becoming a mentor this year and helping other students like myself. Now that I am a mentor, I realize what a good feeling you get from helping someone else and knowing that you're making a difference in his or her life. In many situations, lasting friendships are made as well. My mentor and I hit it off right away. And we're still good friends today.
Becoming a mentor is a serious commitment (承诺). Mentors spend one hour every week with the student they are mentoring. Considering your responsibilities, it may be difficult to add another commitment to your schedule. But I hope you will at least consider the possibility.
Thank you for considering our invitation. We look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Mark Lopez

Dear Maria.
How are you these days? Thank you for the nice green pen! I love it.
Today is September 30th. Next month will be October, my favorite month. October 1st is National Day and we have a seven-day holiday. During the holiday, my parents often take me to see my grandparents. There are also some interesting school activities（活动）in October. On October 10th, we have a school trip. Then on October 18th, we have a soccer game. I love soccer because it's relaxing for me. I often play soccer after school and watch it on TV. On October 26th, we have a book sale in the school library. I have some old books and I want to sell them. And the next day we have an art festival. It's fun. My birthday is also in this month. So it's really a great month for me.
Yours,
Li Lei

The end of the school year was coming, and it was time for the school play. This year’s play was Romeo and Juliet. Rick hoped to be Romeo in it.
After school, Rick and lots of other students went to the gym for the audition (试演). Only several of them would have a chance. Their names would be on the board the next day. Later, Rick saw his friend Kevin’s name on the board, but he couldn’t find his.
“I can’t understand why I’m not in the play,” Rick said to his mum.
“It just means that someone was a little better than you,” Mum said.
Two days later, Mr Carter, the head teacher, asked Rick if he was interested in doing some drawing for the play. “I know you’re good at art,” said Mr Carter.
Rick was so happy. After getting back home, he told it to his mum. Mum said, “See, your teacher knows you well. And I believe you can do it well too.”
On the night of the play, he watched his friend Kevin and his pictures. At the end of the show, Mr Carter called all the students that worked on the play onto the stage (舞台). Rick was really excited. He felt good about himself.

What should you do if there is an earthquake at school? How can you protect yourself when you are caught in a stampede(奔逃)? Now, accidents happen to primary and middle school students from time to time.
Experts point out that more than 80% of accidents can be avoided by improving students’ self-protection ability through safety education and prevention. So on the last Monday in March, we have a good chance to learn some knowledge about safety.
This day is called the National Safety Education Day for Middle and Primary School Students(全国中小学生安全教育日). The purpose of the day is to give us more knowledge about safety.
Let’s see what students have learned about how to keep themselves safe in different situations.
Advice for a stampede If you fall down a moving crowd, cover your head with both hands, lean to curl up(卷起，弯曲) your legs. —Johnson | Advice for an earthquake *Indoors Drop down, take cover under a desk and hold on. *Outdoors Stay away from buildings, walls and power poles(电线杆). *If you are in a car, stop in a safe place and stay inside the car until the earthquake stops. *If you are in a crowded place, protect your head with your arms or take cover under seats and tables. —Ted |
Advice for a fire When there’s a fire, follow the teachers’ instructions, leave the classroom quickly and use a piece of wet cloth to cover your mouth and nose. —Susan |
Experts also point out staying calm is the first and most important rule when you’re facing accidents. Students need to deal with different accidents with different self-protection tips.
Now many schools have taken actions to teach students how to protect themselves. For example, at some schools earthquake drills(演习) are held once a month. Some schools also encourage students to take first-aid courses at school.
Wang Yuequn, an expert on education law at the Academy of Educational Sciences, said that protecting the safety of students is the common responsibility of schools(意识), master safety knowledge, and improve their self-protection ability. Parents should be responsible to monitor their children and make safety education an important part of family education.
