We were silently waiting on the platform in the late afternoon. There he was, my 80-year-old grandfather with his grey hair and there I was, a teenager girl in my jeans and T-shirt. His aged but still clear blue eyes were taking in the scene as I was wondering how I was going to ______ the next two days. Why did I agree to be with my ______ grandpa on a train ride from our city to another?

No one else wanted to be the fellow traveler since my grandfather refused to ______ a plane. Unlike him, I ______ to fly because I wanted to get to the destination as quickly as possible.

No matter what anyone told my grandfather about the comfort and safety of flying, he refused to book a flight, saying, “It’s not just the ______. It’s the adventure of getting there.”

With my first step onto the train, the journey was ______ different from what I expected. The train was modern and filled with ______ travelers. We all smiled and nodded to greet each other.

My grandpa and I seated ourselves in the dining car, where we could enjoy food and drinks while watching the scenery pass. Instead of listening to my music, I became a willing audience and learned family history that I had never had the ______ or patience to learn about. For the first time, I felt I understood him. I was thankful for our time together on the train.

In this ______ changing world, we often miss important moments. It is necessary for us to slow down and listen to elders who ______ a piece of their history or experience.

Life isn’t just about the destination; it’s about the journey.

Kids need to be active for at least 60 minutes a day. There is no need to let weather stop your kids from the activities they need. There are still lots of great activities that you can do to make them have fun at home.

What should you do if there is a fire at school? Do you know how to protect yourself in a large crowd? Every year since 1996, on the last Monday of the last week in March, the National Day of Education (教育) on the Safety of Primary and Middle School Students is held. This year, it fell on March 29. It offered us a chance to learn more about school safety.

A 2010 survey (调查) from People’s Daily shows that the worst accidents were a result of stampedes (踩踏), fires and traffic accidents.

Experts (专家) say that right safety measures (措施) could avoid 80 percent of these accidents, China Education Daily reported.

When there is an accident, the first and most important rule is to stay calm. But different accidents mean different ways of dealing with (应对) them.

A stampede happens in a place where a large crowd is gathered. When students around you begin to push, you should stand still (静止的) and try to hold onto something, or to stay in a corner until the crowd leaves. If you fall down in a moving crowd, cover your head with both hands, lean (靠) to one side, curl (蜷缩) your body and bend (弯曲) your legs.

When there is a fire, stay calm and follow teachers’ instructions. Leave the classroom and use a piece of cloth to cover your mouth and nose so that you don’t breathe (呼吸) in smoke.

When you are on a school bus, remember to fasten (系牢) your seat belt (带) and don’t walk around when the bus is moving. If you walk to school or go to school by bike, follow traffic rules. Wait for the green light, and look left and right for cars before you cross the road.

You don’t have to be a scientist to solve big environmental problems. One foreign designer (设计师) is finding creative ways to make a change—and he’s inviting bikers to join him.

Daan Roosgaarde, 38, is a designer from Holland (荷兰). He uses creative ideas to improve city life. For his Smog (雾霾) Free Project, he designed a special tower that cleans air in Chinese parks. In Holland, he designed a shining bicycle path.

Now Daan and his team are working with engineers at a Chinese bike-sharing company to create a new product for public use. It’s an air-cleaning machine connected to a bicycle and is part of the Smog Free Project. In smoggy weather, the machine would breathe in the dirty air in front of the bike and blow out a stream of clean air toward the biker’s face.

It’s no secret that air pollution is a big problem for China. In winter, it’s common for thick clouds of haze (霾), caused largely by factory production, burning of coal and car emissions (排放物), to cover areas of China.

In 2016, only one-fourth of Chinese cities met the country’s air quality (质量) standards, according to a survey of 338 cities nationwide from the Ministry of Environmental Protection.

“Of course one tower and a few bikes won’t solve China’s air pollution problem,”Daan said. “But smog-free bikes are an exciting idea that will hopefully inspire communities to create greener cities.”

Without a friend, the world is like a desert. Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back.     31     To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning the following rules.

    32     Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out, and you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always trust in one another to speak and do things honestly.

Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your lunch money or your clothes, of course.     33     These can be valuable to a friend. They tell your friends what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friends know you better.

Everyone needs understanding and help with a problem.     34     Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place, so you can understand the problem better.

No two friendships are ever exactly similar.     35     In fact, good friendship will just not easily last. That is to say, you must give as much as you take, or friendship will die away.

When I was in primary school, I fell in love with reading. The books brought me into     36     wonderful world. The more I read, the more I wanted to know. However my parents couldn’t afford so many books. I had to solve the problem     37     (I).

There was a bookshop near my home. One day I walked into the shop and picked up a book. I didn’t know     38     I could read there without buying any books or not. At first, I just read a few pages and then put it back.     39     (luck), no one noticed me. After that, I went there     40     (read) every day. Several days later, while I was reading, the owner came up and asked. “You like reading?” I looked down and replied nervously, “Yes” “Don’t worry.” he said     41     a smile. “You may read books here if you help me clean the shop.     42     might take you about ten minutes every day.” I felt quite     43     (surprise). “Really? It’s so kind of you!” I was very happy that I could read there.

Now studying in high school, I can borrow books from the library. The problem     44     (solve) completely and my hobby of reading is kept.It will make a big     45    (different) to my life.
