    "See these erasers, Donnie?" she continued (继续). "Do you know 7 the erasers become smaller and smaller? That's because we make mistakes. But we erase the mistakes and try again. That's what you must learn."

    "Here," she said, "I'll 8 one eraser on your desk, so you will remember that 9 may make mistakes."

    Travelling around the world is a dream for many people, and a young couple from China has made their dream come true. They drove along the ancient Silk Road, from China to the UK.

    Luo Chang and Ding Jie, a young couple from Guizhou Province, spent two months driving from their home in Shanghai all the way to London. The journey covered about 20,000 kilometres, and they crossed 14 countries and regions (地区).

    Ding Jie said, "People were excited to see two travellers driving a foreign license car, appearing on their streets. We were stopped many times to take photos with them. Sometimes, when we couldn't understand each other's language, they would express their ideas with gestures(手势).

    During their driving trip, they also spent many nights in local people's homes. Luo Chang said. "This is an amazing experience. We were driving on a highway or a country road to someone's home. Someone you've never met but was preparing dinner for you. We feel we have friends all over the world."

    During the trip, Luo and Ding took nearly 10,000 photos and kept diaries to record the beautiful scenery(风景), the friendly people and the different customs on the way.

When you travel in Hong Kong SAR, you must be careful of the traffic rules, because the traffic(交通)keeps to the left(左边). Before crossing the street, you must look to the right（右边） and then to the left. If the traffic lights are red, the traffic must stop, and people can go across the zebra line(斑马线). If the traffic lights turn green, the traffic can go, and people mustn't cross the road.

In the morning and in the evening, when people go to or come from work, the streets are very busy. The traffic is the most dangerous. When you go somewhere by bus in Hong Kong SAR, you have to be careful, too. Always remember the traffic keeps to the left. Have a look first, or you may go the wrong way. In Hong Kong SAR, there are a lot of big buses with two floors. You'd better sit on the second floor. From there you can watch the city very well. How interesting!

Dear Mike,

Can you believe I'm in a school of 2080 now? The school is like a beautiful garden. The wall of our classroom is colourful. Our school life is interesting and wonderful.

In the morning, we have three lessons. We study on the Internet. We use the e-book. The teachers are all robots. They are of different sizes and they can answer any question about any subject. Our robot music teacher plays the violin very well. In the afternoon, we go to Mars to have two classes in a new plane that looks like our plane and spaceship. I can make friends with aliens. They are friendly and know us well. After class, we play football with aliens. Then we go back to the earth. Don't you think the life in this school is very interesting?

Yours,

Mary

    You probably talk to friends more than you talk to your parents. That's natural. Still, most of us want a parent's help, advice, and support at times. But talking to the parents may be difficult or terrible-especially when it comes to certain subjects. Here are some suggestions to make it easier.

    Talk about everyday stuff-and do it every day. ⑶The more you do something, the easier it gets. Talking to parents about everyday stuff builds a bond that can help you discuss something more serious with them later.

    Find something to chat(聊天) about each day. Talk about how your team did at the sports meet. Share something one of your teachers said. Even small talk about what's for dinner can keep your relationship comfortable.

    ⑷It's never too late to start. If your relationship with your parents makes you feel nervous, try getting into conversations slowly. Mention the cute thing the dog did. Talk about how well your little sister is doing in math. Chatting with parents every day not only keeps the present relationship strong, but also can help a might-be-worse relationship get better.

    When parents feel connected to your daily life, they can be there for you if something really important happens.
