24、Every place offers the possible dangers for getting hurt, even staying at work. We may face dangers like walking into desks or chairs, receiving unexpected cuts from a paper knife and so on. Industrial jobs have similar and more dangers like getting body parts hurt by machines or falling from a height.
No one wants to get hurt. Some accidents are avoidable(可避免的). Most accidents happen because of common things seen every day—an open desk drawer, a chair pulled out too far, water on the floor and so on. We slowly get used to these things we see every day and never think about what they could possibly become in the future.
Think about the following to prevent dangers to yourself and others:
【1.If there is something you see and know may become a danger for yourself or others, do something about it. Close a desk drawer, clean up or put a sign over the water, turn off the power before leaving, and so on.
2.Get extra persons’ help and support on a task that is too hard for a single person.
3.Study the situation and think what could possibly happen and change if necessary. Do it before something happens and you won’t have to say some day, “ I should have… How sorry I feel…”
To use an old phrase “ Safety is everyone’s duty.” Looking down on it could lead to being hurt. Keep the rule in mind every day “ Everyone wants to go home in the same condition they came to work in –or better.”
25、Young people and older people don’t always agree. They sometimes have different ideas about living, working and playing. But in one special programme in New York State, adults and teenagers live together in a friendly way.
Each summer 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for eight weeks as members of a special work group. Everyone works several hours each day. They do so not just to keep busy but to find meaning and enjoyment in work. Some teenagers work in the woods or on the farms near the village. Some learn to make things like tables and chairs and build houses. The adults teach them these skills.
There are several free hours each day. Weekends are free, too. During the free hours some of the teenagers learn photo taking or painting. Others sit around and talk or sing. Each teenager chooses his own way to spend his free time.
When people live together, rules are necessary. In this programme the teenagers and the adults make the rules together. If someone breaks a rule, the problem goes before the whole group. They talk about it and ask, “Why did it happen? What should we do about it?”
One of the teenagers has this to say about his experience, “You stop thinking only about yourself, You learn to think about the group.”

26、Holding doors open, picking up rubbish, thanking people … these acts of kindness seem very small. But students at Tibbetts Middle School know that it’s the small acts that make the world a better place.
Eighth-graders from New Mexico, US, took part in the Random (随意) Acts of Kindness Week from Feb 10 to 14. During the week, they tried their best to do kind things for others, or for the environment.

Now, the students do it by themselves. “The teachers will have less work,” said Elisea Castaneda, one of Murray’s students.

27、 Social Media… the Highs and Lows
Twenty years ago, the idea of sharing our lives so openly with the world was unheard of. However, for young people today it is considered completely normal to share pictures of their lives and interact online every day. Fans of social media point out that the world has never been so connected as it has allowed people to make friends, learn about the world and celebrate life.
However, many people have concerns about the effects of this new way of living, particularly around the amount and type of information that is shared so openly.
Now researchers have found that too much time on social media may indeed have some negative( 消极的 ) effects. They measured people’s attitudes and feelings before and after browsing social media sites. They found that the more time people spent on social media, the more unhappy they became.
There are a number of reasons for this. When browsing social media, people often see photographs and stories showing beautiful holidays, fun parties and fashionable clothes. People seldom post negative stories or bad pictures, so it can be misleading. For those looking at these pictures and comparing them to their own lives, they can end up feeling sad and depressed. They might think their lives are worse in comparison. Even for those people who post positive(积极的) stories and pictures, they too can feel stressed and worried.
The number of “likes” and comments on their posts can make them worried about their popularity. Of course, there is also the problem of “cyber bullying”(网络暴力 ) where people become victims of bullying online when others make negative or cruel comments(评论) about them.
The reality is that social media is a part of modern life and it is not going to go away. This research shows us that it is important to deal with the relationship between our online and offline lives properly. We don’t have to disconnect from the Internet to live a happy life, but we should realise that the pictures we see and stories we read are only part of a bigger picture. If we can do that, we can protect ourselves and enjoy our lives.
【1】According to the passage, we know __________.
A.spending more time on social media makes people more enjoyable
B.researchers haven’t found anything negative about social media
C.it is common for young people to share their lives online
D.the world is not so connected like before
【2】The words “have concerns about” in Paragraph 2 probably mean “__________”.
A.feel worried about B.look forward to
C.speak highly of D.get used to
【3】The writer says that social media can make people unhappy because __________.
A.different people make different comments
B.there are many negative stories and bad pictures
C.they compare positive pictures to their own lives
D.the number of “likes” is larger than they expected
【4】What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To ask us to protect ourselves from “cyber bullying”.
B.To advise us to keep away from the Internet to live a happy life.
C.To remind us of posting positive stories and good pictures online.
D.To tell us to keep a balance between our online and offline lives.

Follow that trash(垃圾)
People don't like to talk about trash. Trash is smelly, dirty, ugly, broken, useless stuff. That's w【1】 we throw it out. But everyone knows that trash affects our environment. It can pollute our land, water and air. So it's important to recycle our trash as much as possible.
Some Americans were very interested in recycling and they were curious(好奇的)about what r【2】 happened to their trash. So, what did they do? They became d【3】 and decided to "Follow that trash!"

Waste management companies in America think this detective work will be helpful to them. Getting rid of waste is very expensive and this "trash tracking" will help them to become more efficient. It will save them time and money.
However, the trash detectives say it's a【7】 important to reduce the amount of trash we produce. After all, if we produce less waste, we won't have to worry about where it goes.
