If you think you’re too shy and want to be a little bit brave, try the following:
You can make it. Tell people you’re shy. There’s no need to hide it. When they get to know you’re a shy kid, they’ll understand you better. This also helps you feel more relaxed in talks.
Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you’re friendly and easy to talk to. Remember that other people have feelings too and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.
Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start talks, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Get your attention elsewhere（在別處）. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not.
Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say “Hi” or smile at someone, say to yourself “You did it”. Keep trying and one day you’ll never feel shy when you talk about yourself.
【小題1】How many pieces of advice does the passage give us?

Bob was cutting a branch（樹(shù)枝） off a tree in his garden. While he was sawing（鋸）, another man passed in the street. He stopped and said, “ Excuse me, but if you continue (繼續(xù))to saw（鋸） that branch like that, you will fall down with it.” He said this because Bob was sitting on the branch and cutting it at a place between himself and the trunk（樹(shù)干） of the tree.
Bob said nothing. He thought, “ This is some foolish（愚笨的） person who has no work to do and goes about telling other people what to do and what not to do.”
The man continued on his way. Of course, after a few minutes. The branch fell and Bob fell with it.
“My God!” he cried. “That man knows the future!” and he ran after him to ask how long he was going to live. But the man had gone.
【小題1】One day Bob was cutting a branch_______a tree in his garden.

Dear Tom,
How are you? I’m in a new school in China this term. And I’m writing to you in my school now. This school is big and nice. There are more than two thousand students in my school. I like the teachers. They are all kind to me. And they can speak English well. So there is no problem to talk with them. My classmates are very friendly. They teach me Chinese and I teach them English.
We have many subjects at school. I like Chinese, music, PE and more. And my favorite subject is art. It’s really interesting. And my art teacher is very fun. He can draw well. I don’t like math. It’s too difficult. After school, I like playing basketball with my new friends. What a fun time to play with them!
We have no classes on weekends. I often go to movies with my parents. Sometimes I stay at home and watch TV. My parents want me to learn Chinese. Sometimes I go shopping. The food is so delicious in Chengdu. I like the food. And the people are very friendly. I love China. I love Chengdu.
Please write to me soon!
Yours                                      Jack

Have you heard about “Survival （生存）Holidays”? “Survival Holidays” is for children to go into the lonely place for exciting activities. Now about 1,100 companies are allowed to take children into the great outdoors without their parents.
The reason why people like “Survival Holidays” is that they think being close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing computer games. “Survival Holidays” gives them an important change.
Is “Survival Holidays” a wonderful idea? Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. They need to be left on their own, without adults disturbing(打擾) them. Parents care too much about their children. They like to see the children being busy with activities that are controlled by adults, but children don’t know what to do when they are in danger. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are not comfortable with danger. Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them.
Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will still remember what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in different times. Some have learned how to keep safe. Others have learned how to work in a team. All these skills will help them a lot in their lives.
