The H1Nl virus has been spreading world-wide，it is important for us to know how to control it．Please pay attention to the following points：
1．Don't touch your face．Above all，keep your hands away from your eyes，mouth and nose，all of which serve pathways(途径) for the viruses(病毒) to enter your body．
2．Wash your hands．If you have to touch your face，wash your hands，getting under the fingernails for 20 to 30 seconds with hot soap and water before．Soaps with surfactants(表面活性剂) can deal with flu viruses．
3．Cover your nose and mouth．When someone sneezes or coughs，liquid(液体) drops with flu viruses as far as three feet through the air and land on your nose and mouth，so it's best to keep at least an arm's length distance when talking to someone who shows signs of infection(感染)．In order to protect others，cover your mouth and nose with a tissue(纸巾) when you cough or sneeze，and clean your hands afterward．Viruses can live for hours，or even longer when on the skin or other surfaces such as keyboards．
4．Consider buying a mask in case you need it in the future．Some research suggests that masks reduce the risk of getting the flu viruses by as much as 80%．But it also suggests that if you don't wash hands，the mask doesn't work well．So wash your hands and use the mask，especially wearing face masks in crowded places is also useful．

No one wants to look silly or do the wrong thing at a new job. It is important to make the right impression（印象）from the very first day. You will face new people. You will be in a new place. It may be difficult to know what to do. Here are five tips to help you make it through the first day in a new job:
① First impression can last forever. Make sure you make a good one. Before your first day, find out if your new job has a dress code (rules about what you can wear to work). If so, be sure to follow it. No matter what, always be neat and clean.
② Get to work on time . Give yourself an extra 15 minutes to make sure you arrive on time.
③ Pay attention to introductions. You may be introduced to your workmates. They will be important to you. They are the ones who will answer your questions when the boss is not around.
④ Ask plenty of questions. Make sure that your supervisor has told you what is expected of you. If you are not told your duties, ask for a list. Set daily and weekly goals for yourself.

Head teacher, teachers, grandparents, parents and classmates, I’m very proud that I have been chosen to speak to you all today. I’m a bit nervous as I’ve never made a speech before to so many people, so please forgive me if it shows! www.xkb1.com
As we all know, this is the school leavers’ party, and it’s time to say goodbye to everyone. We’re sorry to leave you at the end of our junior high school education, and we promise that we'll never forget the happy times we have spent in these buildings with you all.
I’d like to thank three groups of people for the three things I’ve learnt while I’ve been a pupil at our school. The three things are friendship, love and knowledge.
The first group is my friends, and what I’ve learnt is the importance of friendship. We’ve worked hard together, we’ve even shared some difficult times together, but we’ve also had a lot of fun. Many of us will go to new schools and we may not see each other so often in the future. Others will go on to senior high school and continue their close friendships. But friends don’t have to see each other all the time. Sometimes the friends you treasure most are the friends you see less often. A life without old friends is like a day without sunshine. We'll always stay in touch.
The second group is our parents and grandparents. We thank you for the love you have shown us during our years at junior high school, for making a home where we feel both safe and relaxed, and where we can prepare ourselves for our school days. We also thank you for your help with our homework. How many of us owe our good grades to the suggestions you have made during those long evenings?
And finally, the third group is our teachers. We can never pay you back for your kindness, your patience, and gift of knowledge which you have offered us; sometimes you’ve made us work very hard. But you have always been fair and you’ll always be our role models. There’s a saying from Ireland which is a favourite of mine: Strangers are only friends you haven’t met yet.
I couldn’t say it better myself. So from the bottom of my heart, I thank you all and wish you success for the future.Who was the speech made by?
| A．A teacher | B．A student | C．A parent | D．A manager |
What’s the purpose of the speech?
| A．To thank people. | B．To look forward to the future. |
| C．To say sorry. | D．To worry about the tests. |
Which words can you use to describe the tone?
| A．troubled | B．worried | C．excited | D．humorous |
