Almost all theme park accidents can be prevented. Here, based on coverage of theme park safety, are some tips to help you an d your family stay safe on your next visit.
If you are visiting with a child, take a moment to explain the ride to them, and tell them how they should behave. They are depe nding upon you to keep them safe. Set a good example for the m by following the rules of the park, and make sure that they kn ow you expect them to follow those rules, too.
Tell them to stay seated, to hold the grab bar（扶手）
or put their hands in the laps, and not to stick their knees and fe et outside a ride vehicle. Make them look to you for the okay to get on or off a ride, too.
And never put a crying child on a ride. If your child starts to cry, let others pass you in line until your child is calmed. Or, gently l
eave the queue and find something more relaxing to do. Young kids can’t keep an adult’s pace in a theme park. Let the m take plenty of breaks.
“Kids get tired,” said TPI reader Matt Johnson, a father of four. “Tired kids make parents even more tired. And tired kids and par ents may get hurt — physically and emotionally.” He advises th at parents plan a mid-
day break, perhaps a swim back at the hotel, to avoid mid-
day heat and crowds. “You will see cranky（脾气暴躁的）families having a miserable time while you are refreshed and ha ving a great evening.”

A. children should be trained to be more independent
B. adults should tell children some safety rules firstly
C. adults should set a good example to behave well in a them e park

61. Which of the following is NOT right for children who are taki ng the rides?
A. They are forbidden to put their knees or feet out.
B. They should ask adults’ permission first to get on a ride.
C. They can not put their hands away from the grab bar.
D. Without adults’ okay sign, children shouldn’t get off a ride.
62. If your child begins to cry just when he is going to take a rid e, you should ________.
A. tell him to be relaxed
B. make him share your interest
C. encourage him to be brave
D. give up the present activity

On the first day of class, Mr Whiteson gave us a lecture about a creature(生物) called cattytiger, a kind of cat-
like animal that completely disappeared during the Ice Age. He passed round a skull (头
骨) as he talked, and we all felt interested and took notes while l istening. Later, we had a test about that.
When he returned my paper, I was very, very surprised. There was a very large cross （打
叉） through each of my answers. And so it was with everyone else’s in our class. What had happened? Everyone was wonder ing and couldn’t wait to get the answer.
Very simple, Mr Whiteson explained. He had made up all that st ory about the cattytiger. There had never been such an animal. So why none of us noticed that and how could we expect good marks for the incorrect answers?
Needless to say, we got very angry. What kind of teacher was t his?
We should have guessed it out, Mr Whiteson said. After all, at t he very moment he was passing around the cattytiger skull (in f act, a cat’s),hadn’t he been telling us that it completely disappe ared during the Ice Age?

Say goodbye to your shyness
There is nothing wrong with being shy. 71 If you want to be more comfortable talking to people, you can do it! Here’s how. Start small
At home, practice smiling and saying hi while looking at yourself in the mirror.
72 Try to look them in the eye, too. Once that becomes a habit, try doing the same with kids you don’t know as well. Questions are most important
Once you’re used to smiling and saying hi, it’s time to start a co nversation!
73 What’s your favorite movie? Why did you choose that b ook for your report? Just be careful not to ask questions that mi
ght be hurtful. If you are feeling unsure about a question, ask yo urself if you’d feeling bad if someone asked you that same ques tion.
74
When you’re shy, it’s easy to worry about what others think of y ou. In fact, that’s just a thought inside your head, and nobody is watching your every move. So you can change it.
Choose face-to-face time
Many shy girls say it’s easy for them to talk to people online. Ho wever, using technology to feel safer may make it harder for yo u to overcome your shyness. 75
And put in some face-to-face time with the people in your life!
Conversation starters
Many happy, successful people are shy.
Change your thinking
D. Then try this at school with kids you know well.
