In the past twenty years, riding bicycles has become more and more popular among people of all ages. (3) Bicycles have long played an important part in the lives of American young people. But today an even greater number of adults cycle along roadsides and bicycle paths. These new riders are often trying to become fit or lose weight. They have found that bicycling is a pleasant way to stay healthy.
This is certainly good for health. But it has also brought some problems. With all these added people on the road, bicycle safety has become a matter of real importance.
Bicycle safety is mostly a matter of common sense. People should ride only on bicycle paths where they will not be badly hurt. There are also a number of rules that riders should follow, especially when riding on streets or highways. Bicyclists should never ride against the traffic, nor should they carry other people on their bicycles. They are also supposed to ride in single line on busy streets and to "walk bicycles across the busy intersections (交叉路口) . (4)By following these rules, bicycle riders will not only stay healthy but also be safe.
In one recent year, the National Safety Council reported that 34 thousand bicycle riders were hurt in highway accidents. In that same year, another six hundred riders were killed. Since the introduction of crash helmets (头盔) in 1980, the number of injuries (伤者) and deaths from bicycling accidents had gone down. Today, more and more riders realize the dangers of bicycling. They are wearing helmets and paying closer attention to cycling rules.

My version(视力) is getting worse. I can’t even see what is five feet away from me without glasses. ①我拒绝戴眼镜，though I know I need to. I’m afraid they will make me look ugly. Besides, I can do well without them. These were my thoughts two years ago, when I was in the sixth grade. An embarrassing experience taught me that what I was thinking was wrong.
②School has been out for two months. I was going to junior high school soon, where I was sure that looks are everything. So the question still remained there. Should I, Or should I not, wear glasses? The question was still in my mind when my family and I attended a wedding(婚礼) late in the summer.
During the wedding, I drank too much juice. Soon after it ended, I walked quickly to the bathroom. Since it was an emergency(紧急) and I couldn’t clearly see which door was ③marked boys. I just opened the nearest door and entered the restroom.
Unluckily, I had entered the wrong restroom. But I didn’t know this until I heard a scream(尖叫声) coming from the entrance when I was washing my hands .
After that, I decided to wear the ugly-looking glasses. I didn’t really ④care about what people thought of me any more, because I never wanted to enter the wrong bathroom again.
On the first day of seventh grade, ⑤my friends didn’t make fun of me. Instead they gave me compliments. They thought the glasses made me look more cute and more natural.
So if you know something is right, just do it. ⑥It doesn’t matter what others think of you. All that matters is what you think of yourself—and that you can see where you are going!

Recently, more and more people pay attention to eating healthily. Some food additives(添加剂) are used to make different kinds of foods. Some of them can make the food more delicious and some of them can make it colorful. But lots of chemicals are used to produce what we eat every day.
Sudan red is a kind of chemical that factories used it to dye cloth, make the shoes brighter. But some people produced salted duck eggs with it. However, it isn’t a kind of food additive. The food made from Sudan red makes it easier to cause cancer. Melamine(三聚氰胺) is another kind of chemical that are banned(禁止). It’s white crystal(晶体), which was discovered by a German chemist called Sustus Von Liebig in 1834. Melamine can be used to make paper, medicine and woods, ect. But nobody can imagine that some people used it as a material of milk powder(粉末). Because of melamine, it’s reported that 4 babies died and more than 50 thousand babies are affected since 2008. Sanlu, a famous milk powder factory was closed. What’s worse, milk powder with melamine appeared in 2011 again. Problems of food safety, for example, poisonous rice, lean meat powder(瘦肉精) and plasticizers(塑化剂) are becoming more and more serious.
Fortunately, lots of laws have been made to make the solution(解决方法) better. We think we will eat more healthily in the future.

During all this time I never stopped thinking about escape. When I traveled across to the other side of the island, I could see the other islands, and I said to myself, “Perhaps I can get there with a boat. Perhaps I can get back to England one day.”
So I decided to make myself a boat. I cut down a big tree, and then began to make a long hole(洞) in it. It was hard work, but about six months later, I had a very fine canoe(独木舟). Next, I had to get it down to the sea. How foolish I was! Why didn’t I think before I began working? Of course, the canoe was too heavy. I couldn’t move it! I pulled and pushed and tried everything, but it didn’t move. I was very unhappy for a long time after that.
That happened in my fourth year on the island. In my sixth year I did make myself a smaller canoe, but I didn’t try to escape in it. The boat was too small for a long journey, and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my home now, not my prison（监狱）, and I was just happy to be alive. A year or two later, I made myself a second canoe on the other side of the island, I also built myself a second house there, and so I had two homes.
My life was still busy from morning to night. There were always things to do or to make. I learnt to make new clothes for myself from the skins of dead animals. They looked very strange, it is true, but they kept me dry in the rain.
I kept food and tools(工具) at both my houses, and also wild goats(山羊). There were many goats on the island, and I made fields with high fences to keep them in. They learnt to take food from me, and soon I had goats’ milk to drink every day. I also worked hard in my corn(玉米) fields. And so many years went by.
