七、书面表达
答案:
How to keep safe
It's important for us to learn how to keep safe.
Firstly, students usually spend their most time at school. Therefore, we should always keep in mind that running is dangerous there in case accidents happen. Secondly, all people including students must obey traffic rules. For example, stop at the red light, walk on the crosswalk or the sidewalk, do not play around or stare at the phone screen when walking in the street and so forth. Last but not least, nowadays internet has become more and more popular in our life, which also means personal information is no longer as private as before. Thus, when setting a password, for example, keep it as long and complicated as possible otherwise your account may be stolen and your information may be slipped out.
To sum up, real joy and happiness is always based on safety.
