Lan Lan，a student of Grade Seven in Lushan，was taking a drawing class in a tent on April 23．Guess what she drew--a house with wings．When the teacher asked why she did so，Lan said if her house could （81）f ，it wouldn't fall down in an earthquake．
Lan's hometown was hit by a（82）s earthquake on April 20．At least 196 people were killed and more than 11，000 were injured．Many people became homeless．Soldiers and doctors（83）q arrived in the area，saving people and rebuilding homes．Lots of money was sent there to help all those in need．
Although we can't prevent （阻止） an earthquake from happening，we can use some methods to （84）r harm．During an earthquake，do not jump out of high buildings because it is very （85）d ．Another method is to cover your head and neck （86）u a strong table or desk．If there is no shelter （躲避处） nearby，you can also stay by a wall，and cover your head and neck with your arms and hands．And then you must keep calm and stay there （87）u the shaking stops．
Japan is a （88）c which lies on the earthquake belt （地震带） and it is very good at dealing with earthquakes．From a very young age，the Japanese are already taught how to survive （幸存） them．Students often receive earthquake training．Almost in every Japanese family you can find a survival kit （救生装备） with a flash-light，a radio，water and enough food for several days．This helps people to stay （89）a after an earthquake．
"There should be more safety（90）t at schools in our country，"said Xu Jiannong，an education expert in Beijing．There is no more truth than this when one's life is the most important of all．
Hans Christian Andersen，a great Danish （丹麦的） writer，is very famous for his fairy tales （童话）．He wrote a lot of best-known stories such as The Emperor's New Clothes and The Ugly Duckling．His fairy tales have brought happiness to children across the world．The tales have versions （版本） of over a hundred languages．
Andersen was born in Denmark in 1805．When he was still a young boy，he was already very clever and imaginative （富于想象力的）．He created a small toy theatre and made clothes for his puppets （木偶）．He also loved reading．
In 1816，his father died and he learned to be a tailor （裁缝）．Later he worked in a factory．At the age of fourteen，Andersen moved to the capital of Denmark to become an actor and gave performances （演出） in the Royal Danish Theatre．However，his voice changed when he grew older，so the job had to stop．Then he began to write poems and fairy tales．
In the spring of 1872，Andersen fell out of bed and didn't get well again．He lived until 1875 and died peacefully at the home of his close friends．

As an English，I can speak three languages-English，German and French，so do you think the British people are very good language learners？The fact is that they aren't．
Some statistics （数据） from the survey done by the European Commission （欧盟委员会）showed that 62% of the British people only speak English.38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more．Compared with the British people，56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more．From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe．
And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign language．Many European people can have a conversation in English．That's why my people don't think it is necessary to learn a foreign language．
In Britain，students are not required to learn a foreign language．That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school．In UK schools it is common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14．So why don't students continue learning foreign languages at school？Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history．
To solve this situation，the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school．One way is to start learning it at a much younger age．Another one is to give school children more choices．
Changing the British attitude （态度） to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to try!

On my recent trip to Sydney with my parents，we visited the Wildlife Park．
The Wildlife Park has lots of different animals and birds．Some are native （当地的） to Australia and can only be found there．There are over 600 animals there，including kangaroos，koalas and crocodiles （鳄鱼）．They are kept in their natural environment．I like the Wildlife Park better than a zoo where most of the animals are in cages （笼子）．
We first spent some time with the kangaroos．We were allowed to touch and feed them．It was very exciting to be so close to them．There were koalas there too．They looked very cuddly （令人想拥抱的）．Although we were not allowed to carry them，I got to take a photo with one．
