One afternoon, Bob and Jane were walking along a quiet street when they heard a big noise from the street corner. They ran there and found that a small car had knocked into the side of a truck. Both the car driver and the truck driver were hurt.
“Bob,” said Jane, “run back down the road to Mrs Day’s house. Ask her to call the police and the ambulance(救护车). Hurry up. I’ll stay here.”
Bob went off as fast as he could. There was nothing Jane could do but wait. She knew that when people were hurt in an accident, they shouldn’t be moved.
It wasn’t long before the police car and the ambulance arrived. The policemen got the car door open and moved the man out. Then they got the truck driver out. Luckily, the men weren’t badly hurt, but they were both taken to hospital. The policemen thanked Bob and Jane.” You were very good to act so quickly when you saw the accident. Thank you for all your help.”

Imagine you have a history or math test in school．（76） How should you prepare for this terrible event？
Should you reread your history，math or English books？What about underlining important words or sentences？（77） But are these truly the best methods？

This Thursday，across the US，kids are going to work with their parents instead of going to school．
They can help their parents do some cleaning，send e﹣mails and deal with other daily things．Because April 28 is Take Our Sons and Daughters to Work Day all over the US．This holiday shows kids what it means to be a grown﹣up in the working world．
I still remember when this day started，I was very happy．Not only did I have the chance to leave the
school，but I also could sit in my dad's taxi all day long and we would go to a restaurant for lunch．
I couldn't read my book in the car as I would get carsick（晕车） and my dad didn't like to
turn on the radio．I got hot and uncomfortable．People wouldn't get into his taxi because they thought
he already had a passenger：me﹣﹣so nothing happened．It seemed years before we went out for lunch．In fact，I started to miss the school．
Although the purpose of the day is to give kids a chance to experience possible jobs in their futures，I got something completely different from the day．I learned to value school life．Where else can you play with your friends，do science experiments，read great books and write stories all in one day？
Just like you'll have to learn to love your job later in life，learn to love school now． If you don't，try spending the day at work with your dad．
