You want to run across the street to catch the bus which is leaving soon? But wait! You’d better not. If a policeman sees you， you’ll have to pay a fine (罚款). New traffic laws (交通法) say that if people cross the street when the light is red， they can be fined as much as 50 yuan.
Traffic accidents killed more than 104，000 people in China last year. Chinese cities have more cars than ever. Drivers and pedestrians (行人) must work together to make the streets safer. The law has new rules for drivers and pedestrians. Drivers have to slow down when they are close to crosswalks. If people are in a crosswalk， cars must stop to let them pass.
There are rules for bus drivers， too. If bus drivers smoke， drink or make phone calls while driving， they can be fined. Buses that carry too many people are also against the law. Pedestrians will have to walk more safely under the new law. They must cross streets at crosswalks. Also， they shouldn’t climb over the fences (栅栏) along streets.
Do you bike to school? It’s not a good idea to carry classmates on the back. You could be fined 50 yuan. And stay in the bike lane (慢车道) when you’re riding. The big roads are for cars and buses.
Do you like to ride your uncle’s motorbike? When you put on your helmet (头盔)， ask him to put one on， too. People on motorbikes must wear helmets， the new law says. If they don’t， they’ll have to pay 200 yuan.
Do you ride in cars often? Don’t forget to put on your seat belt (安全带)， even if you’re going for a short taxi ride. It could save your life.
If you see a hit-and –run (肇事逃逸)， tell the police. They may give you a reward (奖赏). And don’t be afraid to help people to the hospital if they are hurt in an accident. Don’t worry about money. The new law says that doctors must take care of them even if they can’t pay right away.Don’t go across the road when _______.

Every day we use money to buy what we want. But have you ever really noticed the bill (钞票) in your hand? There are different pictures on both sides of banknotes (纸币) and interesting stories behind them.
Most banknotes have famous people on the front， such as a country’s leader or a great scientist， while on the back of the paper note there are usually some well-known scenes or national buildings.
The latest editions of Chinese banknotes use the picture of Mao Zedong， founding father of the People’s Republic of China， on the front of all yuan bills. However， the backs of the bills are different. The Great Hall of the People， on the 100-yuan note， is a landmark (地标) in Beijing. Important meetings are always held there. The Lijiang River in Guilin， on the 20-yuan note， is one of the most beautiful scenes in the world.
The US 1-dollar bill has the first president， George Washington， on the front side. A 13-level pyramid is on the back. Benjamin Franklin， a great scientist and politician (政治家) from the US， appears on the front of the 100-dollar bill. You can see the White House， where the presidents live， on the back of the 20-dollar bill. According to Paragraph 2， which one probably appears on the back of the banknotes?
