     Millions of young people are writing blogs. Millions of others are reading them. The word "blog" is a
short way of saying Web log.
     Many popular Web sites now offer free, easy ways to create personal Web pages and fill them with
writings and pictures. Web sites called "Facebook" and "MySpace" are some of the most popular blog sites
for young people. Many young adults use their blogs to write about daily activities and events in their lives.
They also provide a place for people to write their ideas and opinions and how they think of others' ideas.
     Blogs offer young people a place to show their writings and feelings. They can also be helpful to connect*
young people with others. But blogs can become dangerous when they are read on the Internet by millions of
people all over the world.
     Recent studies show that young people often provide their names, age and where they live on the Internet.
That may not be safe for them. This personal information puts them at risk* of being searched out by
dangerous people who want to hurt them. Many students do not know about privacy* and are surprised to
learn that adults can read their personal daily records easily. Students can also get into trouble when they put
information about others on their blogs.
     As a result, many schools have banned* the use of blogging web sites on school computers. Many
schools have also begun teaching parents about the web sites. Parents should know what their children are
doing online and should read their blogs to make sure they are not giving out private information. One way to
keep away from these problems is to use programs so that blogs can be read by"friends only." people can
read the website only if they know a secret word chosen by the blogger.

      Dream is a story that a person"watches"or even takes part in during sleep. Dream events are imaginary,
but they are related to real experiences and needs in the dreamer's life. They seem real while they are taking
place. Some dreams are pleasant, others are sad, and still others are frightening.
       In most dreams, the dreamer cannot control what happens to him. The story may be confusing, and
things happen that would not happen in real life. People see in most dreams, and they may also hear, smell,
touch, and taste in their dreams.
       Dreams are a product of the sleeper's mind. They include events and feelings that he has experienced.
Most dreams are related to events of the day before the dream and strong wishes of the dreamer. Deep
wishes or fears-especially those held since childhood-often appear in dream. Events in the sleeper's
surrounding-a loud noise, for example, may become part of a dream, but they do not cause dreams. 
      Everyone dreams, but some persons never recall dreaming. Others remember only a little about a dream
they had just before awakening and nothing about earlier dreams. No one recalls all his dreams.

     Are you too nervous to work out the problem when your teacher asks you to come to the blackboard? If
your answer is "yes", you get really shy.
     Shyness means feeling frightened when you're the center of attention (注意力). In fact, everybody gets a
little shy sometimes, even the great people in history. When Thomas Edison was young, he loved Shakespeare (莎士比亞) very much. He wanted to act in his play. But he was too shy. He didn't know what to do when
there were people around. Later, he had to give up. But shyness didn't stop him from becoming a great inventor.
     Some experts say shy people are cleverer because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at
working with others because they think more for other people. Most people have red faces and talk in broken
sentences (語句支離) when they get shy. It isn't a very big problem. But some become so shy that they can't
do the things they want to do. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person. Here are some good ways to make
you braver (勇敢).
     ●Tell people you are shy. This can make others understand you better and help you easier in talks.
     ●Try to smile more. People think you are friendly and easy to talk to when you smile.
     ●Learn to be a good talker. Begin your talk with saying something nice about people around you. It's very
helpful for keeping your talk.
     ● Put your attention somewhere else. Think more about ways to enjoy the party or the game. Don't waste
time worrying about your looks or whether people like you or not.

(     )7. If you are a shy person, you should let people know this when you talk to them.                 
(     )8. To begin a talk, you'd better say something good about yourself. This can help you feel less shy.

　　This spring, the H1N1 virus (病毒) has been all over the news. The virus
spread (傳播) from Mexico and people in the United States also got sick. The
virus has spread all around the world. It can make people very sick, and can
spread easily from one person to another. Some people have died from it. Most
people got better after having a fever and sore throat. Most people want to know:
Should I worry about the H1N1 flu virus or not? Medical scientists say instead of
worrying, wash your hands! Worry won’t keep you from getting the H1N1, but
washing your hands often can keep you healthy. A virus is a germ (細(xì)菌) and
germs are too small to be seen. Keeping your hands clean -and following other
good hygiene (衛(wèi)生) habits like not sharing drinks and keeping your fingers out
of your mouth -can keep the germs on the outside. If you want to travel to Mexico
or other countries, pack a travel health case. The case should include a number of
basic medicines inside. Another way to stop the spread of the flu is for sick
people to stay home from school or work. Anyone who thinks he or she might
have the H1N1 virus should see a doctor as soon as possible. If someone has the
H1N1 virus, medicine can help the person get better.
