Today, when I walked to home after school, I found the sunset was very beautifully. I stopped at the park and sit on a bench to appreciate the scenery. There was so many people who had a walk at the park, most of whom were old couples. There was a special couple walk hand in hand, who caught my attention. The old woman couldn’t walk well so there was something wrong with her right legs. The old man took care of them carefully. They set good example to the young couples, showing that true love is. Against the sunset, they made up a beautiful scene.

4 . Gaelic had been the major culture in Scotland. But many forces tried to weaken its power. The final straw came in 1609, when some laws required Highland Scottish leaders to send their children to English-speaking schools. Naturally, the culture continued to weaken through the 20th century. Though Gaelic still existed in some rural areas, a lack of jobs meant young people in Gaelic areas were leaving for English-speaking cities.
Iain Noble was a wealthy businessman from Germany. He quickly fell in love with Gaelic culture when he moved to Scotland. So he set up the college of Sabhal Mòr Ostaig in 1973 on the Isle of Skye. Today, it has more than 1,000 students and is officially the National Centre for Gaelic Language and Culture. It is where the revival of Scotland’s Gaelic culture started.
Of course, the college teaches the language and culture. But the secret to making such impressive cultural achievements is giving language learners skills in industries like media and business. The skills allow students to create local jobs and help make the area known to tourists.
Noble’s wife Lady Lucilla said his eagerness to revive the culture was clear. After spending much money setting up the college, Noble had to go to great lengths to find worthwhile teachers. Sometimes he tried hard to find people who had left Skye, “Iain would invite those whose families were from Skye but who were working in Aberdeen, in London and further afield,” said Lucilla.
“Now I’ve seen some cool youngsters who are very proud of their Gaelic, and they are fascinated by the culture,” she said.
One such youngster is 15-year-old Emily Macdonald. She not only speaks Gaelic fluently with her friends, but is excited to do so.
“I feel like we’re even more wanting to speak Gaelic, just to keep it alive, because it is really important to our nation,” she said. “And to have this special language that we can speak to each other in is quite special.”

5 . Growing up, Chris Hadfield spent every summer at his family’s cottage (小屋) on Stag Island in southern Ontario. Like just about everyone else on the island, the Hadfields didn’t have a television set, so late in the evening of 20 July 1969, Chris and his family went to a neighbour’s cottage to watch the Apollo 11 landing on TV. When he saw Neil Armstrog step onto the surface of the Moon , Chris’s life changed forever. He knew he wanted to be an astronaut (宇航员) too.
At the time , it was impossible. For one thing, he wasn’t a grown-up yet. For another , all of NASA’s astronauts were American. Canadians weren’t even allowed to apply for the job.
But Chris decided to start getting ready, just in case things ever changed. He worked hard at school, learning everything he could about science , rockets and Space. As a teenager, he learned how to fly gliders (滑翔机), and then, after graduating from military college, he became a fighter pilot. Later , he became a test pilot who helped make military aircraft safer. Twenty-three years after that summer night on Stag Island, Chris’s dream came true: the newly formed Canadian Space Agency chose him to be an astronaut.
Since then , he has orbited (围绕……运动) the Earth thousands of times on three separate missions. Most recently, Chris was in Space for nearly five months, from December 2012 to May 2013, when he served as the first Canadian Commander of the International Space Station ( ISS ).
Today, Chris travels the world teaching people about Space, sharing the beautiful photographs he took and playing the songs he recorded on the space station. On summer nights, he likes to sit on his dock on Stag Island, watching for the ISS to pass by overhead. Even in the darkest dark, on a moonless night, the spaceship’s light is clearly visible (看得见的).

Last Sunday, I was walking down the street when I spot an elderly man sitting alone in front of a tea house. I decided to do something unusually. I walked up to him and asked if I could join him, in which surprised him a lot. Late, we two sat there for the next two hour exchanging stories.

9 . Stranger Safety Tips for Children
Your feelings tell you that you are safe with some people like your mom or dad, brothers or sisters; your grandparents; teachers at school.
People that you do not know very well can mean danger. You may meet these people anywhere, in the streets, stores, theaters, or on the playgrounds. These people are strangers. Simply, a stranger is someone that you do not know.
Not all strangers are bad, but it is very difficult to tell bad strangers from good strangers. Strangers can come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and ages. Even a teenager could be considered a stranger to you.
If a "stranger" comes towards you, you should:
● Never talk to a stranger.
● Never go near a stranger.
● Never accept gifts or rides from a stranger.
● Never go anywhere with a stranger.
Report strangers to your parents, teachers, bus drivers, or an adult that you know well.
The main rule to remember: "Stay away from strangers".
When you are alone at home, always lock the door. Do not answer the door if someone knocks. Never let strangers into the house. If the telephone rings, answer it. Do not tell anyone that you are alone. You can tell them your parent cannot come to the phone right now. Ask who is calling, and offer to take a message.
1. You may feel safe with the following people EXCEPT________.A.your brothers. | B.your teachers. | C.your classmates . | D.some strangers |
A.Because they don't know your parents. |
B.Because they have a different shapes. |
C.Because they may bring danger. |
