Peter I went out with a group of friends yesterday. We saw a lady lying in the street. She looked very sick. My friends made jokes about her and laughed. Though I wanted to help her, my friends told me not to. It was awful of them to laugh at her, and I regret not saying anything. I feel ashamed of myself. What should I do in this situation?
Dear Peter,
I believe you’ve learnt an important lesson —— you’ ll regret it if you don’ t do the right thing at the right moment. Next time in the same situation, you should make up your own mind. You shouldn’t listen to your friend. It was awful of them to laugh at a sick lady.
Julile I have to share a room with my seven-year-old sister, and she’s driving me mad! She has a habit of playing the piano when I’ m studying, and she always takes my things without telling me. I try to keep the room tidy, but she always makes a mess. I love my sister, but sometimes she’s so annoying! What should I do?
Dear Julie,
You should talk to your sister more. Ask her to play the piano only when you’re not studying. Let her borrow your things only if she asks you first. Perhaps she just wants more attention from you. Try spending some time with her every day and you’ll both learn how to live happily with each other.Where is the passage from?

At 5:05 pm on March 19, a loud alarm sounded around the playground of Tanghu Middle School, Sichuan. Students hurried to the playground with something covering their mouths. Don’t worry. There wasn’t a fire. Students were having a fire drill（演习）. School is a good place for students to study. Yet sometimes, it is easy to have accidents there.
A survey suggests that right safety training could prevent 80 percent of these accidents. In China, fire drills at school are common to teach students to deal with emergencies（紧急情况）. At the same time, many other countries have their own ways to keep children safe around school.
In Japan, public primary schools hold earthquake drills once a month. They teach students safety tips during an earthquake drill. The training teaches students to escape from earthquake-stricken areas without pushing and stampeding（踩踏）.
Most US school buildings have fire escapes on each floor. A fire escape has platforms with stairs and ladders. They are usually made of iron. Students can get to the fire escape through a fire exit door or a window.
In many middle schools in the UK, students can choose to take a bicycle course. There, they learn how to ride to school safely. Also, on roads without traffic lights near schools, there are crossing guards. They wear bright color clothes and stop cars to guide children across the road safely.Did a fire really happen in Tanghu Middle School?

How do the students get to the fire escape in the US?

There is no room in the house for a coward（懦夫）！”
Years later, young Hillary put all of her energy into politics（政治）. As a student leader, she often discussed and researched social problems. In 1969, Hillary entered Yale Law School, where she met Bill Clinton. The two soon became partners in political activities and the journey of love.
Even after Bill was elected（选举）as president in 1992, Hillary didn’t want to just be the president’s wife. She worked on US healthcare. However, she was not popular with those against her husband. At that time, some people said she was too interested in politics. But Hillary kept her head held high, “When she takes on a project, she works tirelessly until it is completed,” said Betty Lowe, an ole friend of the Clintons. “It’s that kind of determination（决心）that will help her win the White House.” She has made a decision that she will take part in the election of the next president in 2016.
