Last Saturday，I went to a coffee shop to meet a friend of mine.I got there ten minutes earlier.
So I ordered a cup of coffee and sat by the window，watching people.There were some boys playing football on the street and a small boy was running after the ball as it rolled across the road.
Suddenly，there came a car.It was going very fast.When the driver saw the boy in his way，he braked（刹车）hard.But it was too late …The small boy was lying on the street without moving.To everyone's surprise，the car didn't stop.It drove away quickly.
People ran to the boy.There was a cut on the boy's head and he lost a lot of blood.The coffee shop owner telephoned the police.Soon an ambulance（救护车）arrived and took the boy to the hospital.At 6：30 pm，the police arrived and started questioning people.About half an hour later，they asked me to go to the police station because I saw everything.I gave them all the information I knew because I really wanted them to catch the driver.I didn't leave the police station until 8：00 p.m.After that I went home because I didn't want to talk to anyone.
The next day，the boy's parents called me to say thanks.They also told me their boy was fine and the driver was at the police station now.

A play about Peter Pan was written and shown in December 1904.It was a great success.In 1911，J.M.Barrie wrote a book，Peter and Wendy.The book has been popular sine it was printed for the first time.J.M.Barrie invented the name Wendy，based on Fwendy，the name that he was given as a child.The name Fwendy was based on the word"friend".

DNA is the whole"map" of the human body.It is something that all humans have，and it tells the body what to do.DNA is the reason that we look like our parents，because we get some of their DNA to make our own.
People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time.In 1860，Mr Mendel discovered why we look similar to other people in our family.It is because of small things called "genes（基因）"in our body.In 1953，two scientists，Watson and Crick，found out that those small parts are real messages.They are written in the DNA with a special language.
In 1961，another two scientists found the first "word" that they could understand in that language.It shows how DNA tells the cell（细胞） to build its parts.So far，scientists have found all the words in the DNA map，but we do not understand what they all do.By understanding what just one "word" means，we can help to save people from several illnesses.So the more we understand ，the more doctors will be able to do.
Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine to help sick people，Other people worry that when we learn more "words" and find out more information，we will use it in the wrong way，just to make people more attractive（有吸引力的）or stop sick people getting jobs.
