Every place offers the possible dangers for getting hurt, even staying at work. We may face dangers like walking into desks or chairs, receiving unexpected cuts from a paper knife and so on. Industrial jobs have similar and more dangers like getting body parts hurt by machines or falling from a height.
No one wants to get hurt. Some accidents are avoidable(可避免的). Most accidents happen because of common things seen every day—an open desk drawer, a chair pulled out too far, water on the floor and so on. We slowly get used to these things we see every day and never think about what they could possibly become in the future.
Think about the following to prevent dangers to yourself and others:
1. If there is something you see and know may become a danger for yourself or others, do something about it. Close a desk drawer, clean up or put a sign over the water, turn off the power before leaving, and so on.
2. Get extra persons’ help and support on a task that is too hard for a single person.
3. Study the situation and think what could possibly happen and change if necessary. Do it before something happens and you won’t have to say some day, “ I should have… How sorry I feel…”
To use an old phrase “ Safety is everyone’s duty.” Looking down on it could lead to being hurt. Keep the rule in mind every day “ Everyone wants to go home in the same condition they came to work in –or better.”

Last summer I went through a training program and became a literacy(识字) volunteer. When I began to know what other people’s lives were like because they could not read, I realized the true importance of reading.
My first student Marie was a 44- year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson, I found out she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didn’t know which bus to take. When I told her I would get her a bus timetable, she told me it would not help because she could not read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermarket because she couldn’t always remember what she needs. Since she did not know words, she could not write out a shopping list. Also, she could only know items by sight, so if the product had a different sign, she would not know it as the product she wanted.
As we worked together, learning how to read built Marie’s self-confidence, which encouraged her to continue her studies. She began to make fast progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarket. After this successful trip, she reported how self-confident she felt.
At the end of the program, she began helping her youngest son, Tony, a shy first grader with his reading. She sat with him before he went to sleep and together they would read bedtime stories. When his eyes became wide with excitement as she read, pride was written all over her face. As she described this experience, I was proud of myself as well. I found that helping Marie to build self-confidence was more rewarding than anything I had ever done before.
As a literacy volunteer, I learned a great deal about teaching and helping others. In fact, I may have learned more from the experience than Marie did. Marie didn’t go to the supermarket by bus because______.
| A．she lived too close to the supermarket |
| B．she wanted to stay fit through walking |
| C．there were no bus stops in front of the supermarket |
| D．she had no idea which bus to take to the supermarket |

| A．Marie learnt how to read really fast |
| B．Marie had no gift for learning how to read |
| C．It was hard for Marie to change her habits |
| D．It was hard for Marie to build self-confidence |
We learn that in the end________.
| A．Marie could read and became confident |
| B．the writer chose to help Marie’s son to read too |
| C．the writer decided to spend more time learning to read |
| D．Marie thought she learnt more from the experience than the writer |

| A．The importance of learning to read |
| B．The difficulties that a single mother faced |

There are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school. For example, if we want to use our money wisely, we need to shop carefully. We need to know how to compare(比较) the prices of things in different shops. We need to be able to compare the quality(质量) of different brands(品牌). We need to know how to make the best choice when we shop.
Knowing how to make such choices is a life skill, and （1） we need these skills if we are to lead useful and happy lives.
Some of these choices are small. For example, will I take an apple or a pear for lunch? Will I take the bus to school today or will I walk? Will I wear the red T-shirt or the blue one to the movies? Other choices are more important. For example, will eat healthy food for lunch or will I eat junk food because it is tastier? Will l work hard in all my classes I enjoy? （2）We make decisions like this every day.
Making the wrong choices can result in unhappiness. （3） We have to realize that the choices we make can affect(影响) the rest of our lives, and it can also affect other people. The next time you decide to waste time in class, play a joke on someone or talk loudly at the movies, consider(思考) this: Who else does your choice affect?将（1）处的句子重新改写。
We don’t need these skills we to lead useful and happy lives.将（2）处的句子改为否定句。
We decisions like this every day.将（3）处的英文翻译成汉语。
