Sir Steven Redgrave
Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals
"In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes (糖尿病). Believing my career was over, I felt
extremely low. Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and
competing. That was it - the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I
am not saying that it isn"t difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn"t finished yet.
Nothing is to stand in my way. "
Karen Pickering
Swimming World Champion
"I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my
diary. This is the key to success - you can"t follow a career in any field without being well-organized. List
what you believe you can achieve. Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, however small they
are, and you"ll be a step closer to achieving them."
Kirsten Best
Poet & Writer
"When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I can"t achieve something. Then,
there are other distractions, such as family or hobbies. The key is to concentrate. When I feel tense, it
helps a lot to repeat words such as "calm", "peace" or "focus", either out loud or silently in my mind. It
makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence. This is a habit that can become second
nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological (心理的) tool."

My name is Karen Winget and I am really glad to welcome you and your kid to my classroom this
year. I graduated from the University of California as a major in English literature and later did my
diploma (文凭) in Early Childhood Education from the same university. I have been teaching in the
elementary grade for five years, though I’ve been working at Sunshine School for the past three years.
I"m interested in reading and I also have my own blog which I see as a window to express myself.
Besides, I always meet new people and learn about their language and culture.
I am looking forward to meeting as well as knowing every student of my class and their parents. This
year will be a challenging year for your children, however, I will try to make the classes more interesting
as well as easier, so that each child can understand. Moreover, I do not just want to stick to academics.
Besides, I am planning activities to develop the student’s creative skills and interests. I hope to make this
academic year an educational year which is full of fun for students.
If you would like to discuss your kid"s performance or any other problems that he/she is facing in
class, you can meet me during lunch break hours, between 9:15 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. It will be
appreciated if you inform me a day in advance to fix the meeting. Besides this, you can also email me at
karie_1234@sunshine.com to discuss any problems about your child.

Kidzania, in a shopping centre in Tokyo, is like a real town where children can act out their dreams
of future careers. The streets are lined with shops and even a bank. Everything inside is two-thirds normal
size to accommodate (容纳) the young workers. After their parents buy the ticket, children can try
several jobs.
Being a firefighter is a dream of many children. Children are being trained in the fire station of the town. Suddenly an alarm bell rings and they put on firefighter clothes before running towards the scene. The
scene is created with lighting and fake smoke, but for children it is real enough. "Sometimes it"s too hard
for them," says the worker Ryoko Ishikura. "Some kids are in tears when they hear the alarm and the
fire breaks out. But even with tears in their eyes they go on running and fight the fire bravely."
The idea for Kidzania started in Mexico. It arrived in Japan three years ago and there are also parks in Chile, Indonesia and Portugal. Another one is opening soon in Dubai.
The children are rewarded for their efforts in "Kidzos", the theme park money. In most countries it is
quickly spent in shops and restaurants. But in Japan, children form long queues at the theme park"s bank. "I"ll keep it in the bank," said nine-year-old Noa Morita, who wants to be a fashion designer.
B. They play roles in children’s movies.
C. They experience their future jobs.
D. They learn how to make and save money.
B. call the firefighters quickly
C. tried to put out the fire bravely
D. are trained to fight the fire
B. She put it in the park’s bank.
C. She asked her parents to keep it for her.
D. She used it to pay for fashion courses.

are a great investment, but they just need to be safe. Believe it or not, there are quite a few dangerous
toys on the market. So, here are some simple tips to keep in mind that will help you buy the safe ones.
●Tip 1 Consider the size of the toys.
When you are considering toys for your kids, the first thing you need to do is to consider the size of
the toys. You don"t want to purchase toys that come with small parts, such as wheels, eyes, or buttons.
If these parts come off, they can be swallowed. This is especially important if you happen to have kids
who are under the age of four.
●Tip 2
The shape of the toys you choose should also be taken into consideration. Make sure that they don"t
have any blunt (钝的) ends or edges that are very sharp. Metal toys and glass toys should be avoided.
●Tip 3 Find out about surface safety.
Find out about the safety of the surface before you purchase any toys. Try to find a label that will let
you know if there are any toxic substances (有毒物质) that you need to know about. Some toys lately
have been painted with paint that was toxic, and other toys often contain liquids in them that are toxic to
kids if they happen to leak out.
●Tip 4 Beware of strings.
Beware of strings when you are buying toys. Strings can be very dangerous to your children,
especially if you have younger children. They can get wrapped up around your children"s body, and this
is very dangerous, especially if the string gets wrapped around their neck. So, it"s best to avoid toys .

3. Fill in the blank in the last paragraph with proper words. (Please answer with 5 words.)
