1 . Do you know how to talk to others politely in English? Have a look at the following.
Could you give me five minutes? VS Go away.
You’re really busy, but your classmate needs your help. When you’re busy and can’t help him or her, you can’t say “Go away”. And you can say, ”Could you give me five minutes?”
Excuse me. VS Move
Telling someone to move out of the way is very rude(无礼的). When someone is in your way, you should say “Excuse me”.
I’m afraid I can’t. VS No
It can often be difficult todeclinean invitation from a friend. Saying “No” would be impolite. It’s a good idea to say,”I’m afraid I can’t.” if you have to say no to an invitation.
Would you mind…? VS Stop it!
If someone is doing something rude, would you like them to stop? You shouldn’t say, “Stop talking on your phone in the cinema!” You can say, “Would you mind not using your phone in the cinema, please?”

2 . If you get into the forest with your friends, stay with them always. If you don’t, you may get lost. If you really get lost, this is what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are. Don’t try to find your friends — let them find you by staying in one place.
There is another way to help your friends or other nearby people to find you. Give them a signal (信号) by shouting or whistling (吹口哨) three times. Any signal given three times is a call for help. Keep up shouting or whistling always three times together. When people hear you, they will know that you are not just making noise for fun. They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They give you two shouts, two whistles, or two gunshots (枪声). When someone gives you a signal, it is an answer to a call for help.
If you don’t think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house — cover up the holes with branches (树枝) with lots of leaves. Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.
What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water? You would have to leave your little house to look for a river. Don’t just walk away. Pick off (去除) small branches and drop them as you walk so that you can find your way back. The most important thing to do when you are lost is to stay in one place.

The problem I’ve found is the cartoons at present. Some of them contain something ugly. Most of the time, they show such many terrible characters with violence(暴力)that you wonder what they really mean. Cartoons are supposed to be funny but they aren’t. If you are expecting to teach your kids good manners and behavior, then they are the worst for your kids to watch.
Kids often imitate what they see in cartoons. If your kid is a fan of such cartoons, he or she will follow his or her favorite cartoon character and try to do something extremely dangerous.
Therefore, try not to let your kids watch too many today’s cartoons. Make sure to keep an eye on what they are watching.

C.All the cartoons are bad for kids to grow healthily today. |

5 . It is easier to go down the hill than to climb up the hill, so it is easier to fall into bad habits than into good ones. Bad habits do not come suddenly. They come little by little without one being aware of(意识到)their danger. School boys first pick up little bad habits in the school and on the street. When they can’t write their lessons, they copy from their schoolmates. If they see bigger boys smoking, they also want to learn to smoke. If they see their friends gambling(赌博), they want to gamble. When they get bigger, the habits become stronger and stronger, so that they can no longer get rid of(摆脱,除掉)them. From copying, they learn to steal, from gambling, they learn to cheat. At last they become distrusted(不信任) by everybody. How necessary it is that we get rid of the bad habits in the beginning.

10 . Healthy eating doesn't just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here is some advice on healthy eating.
Eat with others. It can help you to see others' healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.
Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty--sometimes you are just thirsty, and you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full.
Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Because you don't eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast
Eat healthy snacks like fruits, yogurt(酸奶) or cheese. We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesn't mean that you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal.
Don't eat dinner late. In our busy life, we always put off eating dinner until the last minute. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8-10 hours.
