1、   It's important to teach children to create strong passwords（密码）.①So why not remind them that passwords mustn’t be shared with anyone?

A strong password is a word that is as difficult as possible to guess because it looks like a set of random characters（随机的字符）.

It's wise to use the whole keyboard to mix a password with letters, numbers and symbols. A password of 14 characters or more may be much safer.

The following tips will tell you how to create a strong and safe password:

Tip 1: ②Think of a sentence that is easy to remember, but difficult to guess. For example: "My son Peter is five years old and my daughter Tina is one year old." ③这个句子太长以至于它不可能是一个密码. So what you can do is to use the first letter of each word to make a new password that seems to be meaningless. That is "mypifyoamdtioyo"

Tip 2: ④Make the password more difficult to guess by mixing big and small letters. One way to do this is to use big and small letters one after another. In this way this new password will be "MsPiFyOaMdTiOyO".

Tip 3: Still using the sentence above, you can also add numbers that are meaningful to you. As a result, the new password will be "Mspi5yOaMdTilyO".

Tip 4: Add punctuation（标点符号）and symbols to make the password much stronger. You. may use symbols, numbers and punctuation to take the place of some letters which look similar. For example: "MsPi3y0@MdTi! y0". (o=0, a＝＠, 1=!）

⑤对我们来说记住这些提示很有必要. They can help us to keep our personal information safe.

21、Sue Davies was a hairdresser. She worked for Mr. Anton. He had a large hairdresser’s shop in the town. Many women went to his shop.

One day an old woman came into the shop. She was very rich and she came to the shop every week. She came to Sue’s chair and sat down.

“Good morning,” Sue said to her. “Do you want me to cut your hair today?”

“No,” the old woman said. “I don’t want you to cut it. I want you to dye it. My hair is white and I don’t like white. I want another color. Old people have white hair. I don’t want to be old.”

“Which colors do you want?”

“Which colors can I have?” the old woman asked.

“You can have black,” Sue said, “or brown. Some women are having red this year. You can even have blue.”

“Oh no,” the old woman said. “I don’t want blue. I’ll have black.” And then she sat back in the chair, close her eyes and went to sleep.

Sue washed the old woman’s hair, then she went to get the bottle of black dye. Just then the telephone rang. It was Tom. Sue’s boy friend.

“Can you have dinner with me tonight?” he asked her.

“I’d love to.” she said.

“Good, I’ll meet you when you finish work,” he said. “Bye.”

Sue put down the telephone. She was very happy. “What dress shall I put on?” she thought.

She took a bottle from the table and walked back to the old woman. “I’ll ask one of the girls here to cut my hair for me this afternoon.” she thought. She opened the bottle. “I want to be pretty for Tom,” she thought as she put the dye on the old woman’s hair.

She thought about Tom for a long time as she worked. She didn’t think about the old woman’s hair. She didn’t even look at it.

Then she stopped thinking about Tom and looked at the old woman’s hair. The hair was not black. It was pink.

Oh no! Sue cried. She looked at the bottle of dye. It was not the right bottle. “I must wash her hair again,” she thought. Then she remembered the dye would not come out in water. The old woman must wait until new hair grows. Oh, what shall I do? She’ll be very angry. Sue began to cry.

22、I have three children and I make them do housework. However, my mother-in-law (婆婆) doesn’t agree with me. She thinks I’m too harsh. In her opinion, parents shouldn’t be too strict with children. It is adults’ job to do housework.

I think our family is made up of five family numbers. No one in the family is more important than others, so each member should help with chores. I don’t ask my children to do the same chores, because their ages are different.

At the end of the day, after they finish playing with their toys, I ask them to put the toys away. If they don’t, they will have to say goodbye to their toys. I expect my children to set the table at night and help fold their own clothes. I don’t think I’m asking too much.

I know they are tired after a long day’s study at school, but that’s life—harsh but real. I don’t want to pay them for doing some chores. They live in the house, so they should help out with some things in the house. No one is going to pay them for cleaning up their rooms later in life and I’m not about to start doing it now.

Some parents protect their children too much from anything unpleasant (使人不愉快的) and make their children’s lives too comfortable and safe, but I’m not interested in that way. I hope my children are able to look after themselves and can be independent early.

23、Thanksgiving Day was near. The first grade teacher gave her class some fun homework---to draw a picture of something for which they were thankful．

Most of the class drew a turkey or other traditional things. But Douglas drew a different kind of picture. He drew a hand. Just an empty hand．

Douglas was a different boy. He was poor and unhappy. As other children played, Douglas was likely to stand close by the teacher's side．

The teacher asked him whose hand it was. The little boy said in a low voice，"It's yours."

She remembered the times she had taken his hand and walked with him here and there, as she had the other students. How often she said, "Take my hand, Douglas, we'll go outside.
