3 . Safety problems greatly affect many parts of the world. In China, safety education is becoming more and more important now. The day of safety education for primary and middle school students falls on Monday in the last week of March each year. It helps students learn more about what they should do to keep themselves safe. What are the accidents at school? Let’s take a look.
A stampede always happens in crowded places. When students around you begin to push, just stand there and try to hold onto something. If you fall down in the crowd, move to one side and protect your head with your hands around.
When earthquakes happen, you can get under a desk quickly and hold on. It’ll protect you from falling things. If you are outdoors, find a place away from buildings, trees, and power lines.
When there’s a fire, leave the classroom quickly. It’s better to put something wet over your mouth and nose. In this way, you won’t breathe in smoke. Many people die in a fire, not because of the fire but smoke. It makes them cough and they can’t breathe. That’s very dangerous! So when you want to get out, you should make yourself close to the floor. Then you can breathe some fresh air. Remember, the most important thing is to stay calm in a fire.
Stampedes, earthquakes and fires are the main accidents at school. If you can remember safety knowledge and survival (生存) skills, you will live a safe and happy life.

A Fresh Start at College
After my parents drove off and left me standing at the parking lot with my luggage, I felt very awkward and thought everyone on the new campus was watching me. Finally, I decided to do what I had been doing: Keep my ears open and my mouth shut, and try to appear as mature as I could. However, no matter how hard I tried to be mature, I still felt a little bit embarrassed when I dragged my luggage along the way to my new dorm. Having unpacked my luggage and settled down in my dorm, I spent the rest of the day seeking out each of my classrooms so that I could march in without asking silly questions.
The next morning I went to my first class early. Once I was in the room, however, another problem awaited me. Where to sit? After much hesitation, I chose a seat in the first row and to the side.
“Welcome to Biology 101,” the professor began.
Oh, my God! I had thought it was a literature class. A cold sweat broke out on the back of my neck. I took out of my schedule and checked the room number. I was in the right room but the wrong building.
“So now what?” I wondered. “Get up and leave in the middle of the lecture? Would everyone laugh at me?”
In the end, I decided to settle into my chair and tried to look as serious as a biology major might be.
After class I felt a little bit hungry and hurried to the cafeteria. I filled my plate with sandwiches and was heading for the seat when I accidentally stepped on a rotten banana on the ground. I lost my balance and my plate fell to the floor.

7 . Fifth-graders gathered around a large tank inside their school’s greenhouse. Plants hang overhead, and trays of seedlings (幼苗) fill the shelves. Small silver fish pop their heads out of the water as Blanka, 10 years old, holds out food. “If you put your finger in a little bit, they might bite it. It doesn’t hurt; it just feels funny,” explains Blanka.
At Manzo Elementary Schools in Tucson, raising fish at school was one small answer to a big problem faced by many people in the neighborhood — food insecurity. While the students could have breakfast and lunch at school, their families often struggled to provide dinner. The teachers came up with an idea: could the students raise food at school for the neighborhood?
It wouldn’t be easy. Being in a desert region, water was a scarce resource in Tucson. Apart from that, the soil doesn’t always have the nutrients plants need to grow, so the students would need to add a natural fertilizer. Inspired by the Aztecs’ ancient practice of chinampas, floating farms on lakes near Mexico City, Counselor Moses Thompson introduced an aquaponics (鱼菜共生) system where fish waste served as fertilizer for the plants, while the plants’ roots purified the water in the fish tank. Apart from fish, other animals played an important part in supporting the students’ mission to feed their neighbors. Chickens laid eggs, and visiting pollinators (传粉者) like bees and butterflies helped transform flowers into vegetables.
Once the students had harvested enough food, it was time for Market Day. They offered vegetables as donations to people in the neighborhood and sold eggs and fish to raise funds for fish food and chicken feed. “We can plant good food and have fun while we’re doing something important,” says Blanka. “I’m so happy to be at this school.”
