Bus driver Sondra Artis had just picked up the last student on her route. As she headed towards Surry County Schools, the driver 1  a burning smell in the air. When a student asked her what was wrong, she did her best to 2  her growing worry. 

"I wiped the window and I said, ‘Is that steam or smoke?' I said calmly," Sondra recalled. "As I pressed on the gas, more came out. I just had to get them off that 3 . " Sondra pulled into a church parking lot and turned to 4 the 20 students on board. She reminded them of the evacuation drills (疏散演习) they 5 at the beginning of the year and directed older 6 to leave by the backdoor and younger students through the 7 .

"I told the kids that," You know, we 8 in the beginning of the year, but this is going to be 9 , so I need you to be calm," said Sondra.

The students hurried to the 10  as smoke began to fill the bus. They were 11  , but Sondra remained calm throughout the evacuation. When they were out, she went back onto the bus to make sure everyone escaped 12  . 

Seconds after they all disembarked (下车) , the bus 13  fire. Another bus came to the 14  to take the children to school, and Sondra was happy that everything 15  okay.

How to prepare for an exam is a big question that you always ask yourself. Here are some tips that may help you.

Never fear or hate exam and be confident.

Some students study well but still may be much afraid of exams and due to this reason they get upset and won't be able to get marks.You have to be confident and it is of great help for you to gain success.

Prepare a good timetable.

Prepare a timetable before starting the study.Difficult subjects can be given more time and easier ones less, but most importantly you should spare some time for rest.

Select a proper atmosphere for studying.

Studying atmosphere plays a very important role.So pick a place where you feel comfortable. That is where you feel relaxed and can pay attention to what you are doing. Make sure that while you are studying a subject you are focusing on it only. So keep the books of other subjects away from your eyesight so that you won't be upset about all the things you have to learn.

Make notes while studying.

This is a very important point. While studying, make small notes. The note should be short and clear to make the review easier.Yet don't try to cover everything in it.

On the night before exam you have to sleep well, at least 6 hours and not more than 8 hours. Remember this will have a great effect on your exam. And have your food as in your daily diet.

A. Sleep well and eat well.

B. So try to present answers in points.

C. This should include all the subjects.

D. Can anyone study well while others around are watching TV?

E. A good note shall include the most important points.

F. This will be of great use to your coming exams.

G. So leave all your fears and free your mind before starting the study.

Many scientists believe our love of sugar may actually be an addiction. When we eat or drink sugary foods, the sugar enters our blood and affects parts of our brain that make us feel good. Then the good feeling goes away, leaving us wanting more. All tasty foods do this, but sugar has a particularly strong effect. In this way, it is in fact an addictive drug, which doctors suggest we all should cut down on. 

"It seems like every time I study an illness and search for the first cause, I find my way back to sugar," says scientist Richard Johnson. One-third of adults worldwide have high blood pressure, and up to 347 million adults have diabetes (糖尿病) . Why? "Sugar, we believe is one of the culprits, if not the major reason," says Johnson.

Our bodies are designed to survive on very little sugar. Early humans often had very little food so our bodies learned to be very efficient in storing sugar as fat. In this way, we had energy stored when there was no food. But today, most people have more than enough. So the very thing that once saved us may now be killing us. 

So what is the solution? It's: obvious that we need to eat less sugar. The trouble is, in today's world, it's extremely difficult to avoid. From breakfast cereals (谷物) to after-dinner desserts, our foods are increasingly filled with it.

But there are those who are fighting back against sugar. Many schools are replacing sugary desserts with healthier food like fruit. Other schools are growing their own food in gardens, or building facilities like walking tracks so students and others in the community can exercise.

Unless you are fortunate enough to know an NBA player, Ryan Martin is probably. the best basketball player you'll ever meet. Unlike those who fly up and down the court (球场) , however, Martin is forced to take a different approach; he doesn't have legs.

Martin, a 33-year old man, is a professional wheelchair basketball player. His achievements have taken him halfway around the world to play in Spain for the last seven years. There he made a comfortable living playing basketball and working with some of the greatest athletes in the world. 

"A good wheelchair player can make $50, 000 a year, while a star can make six figures," said Martin. What's more, he couldn't see his family for months and European cities were unfriendly to the disabled. He also had to learn Spanish. Martin, however, overcame those drawbacks (困难) .

He started by playing basketball when he was 12. It didn't take long for him to fall in love with the sport and, after graduating from Somers High, he attended Southwest Minnesota State University on a basketball scholarship. In college, he scored over 1, 000 points in his career and set several school records.

And he works as hard— if not harder— than any other professional athlete. "He destroys me," said Gina Navarra, who works out with Martin on occasion. "What he does amazes me."

Martin also recognizes that, at age 33, he's in the back end of his career. With that in mind, he has been focusing more and more on his foundation.

"I have 12 brothers and sisters. College gave me a true sense of achievement. The foundation is designed to give those with disabilities the opportunity to realize the dreams that I once had," Martin said.

"I'm not saying that out of a sense of pity," he said. "I realize how fortunate I am to have achieved what I have. But I want to open doors for people."

This June, Sam drove to visit his mother who lived in the countryside. When he set off for his home, Sam's mother looked at the dark sky and noticed the sign of a coming storm. Worried about her son's safety, she told him to drive as carefully as possible on his way home and he promised to give her a call upon his arrival. 

With his mother's words in mind, Sam approached and drove on the main road carefully. Soon, it started to rain heavily. Eager to get home, Sam began to drive faster. Two hours later. he came to a bumpy(崎岖不平的) mountain road that had been flooded by a creek(小溪). Sam, driving a heavy truck, figured that he could get through the water. At that moment, he didn't realize that such a thought would be a big mistake. 

It was halfway across this part of the road that an unfortunate incident took place: The rushing waters grabbed hold of his vehicle, pushing it off the road and sending it down to a rocky creek bed. The truck finally stopped some 80 feet away. Sam's problems only grew from there as the water had somehow positioned the truck into the creek bank at a 45-degree angle, making it difficult for him to open the driver's side door. Injured and trapped inside with the muddy water rising quickly, Sam was certain that he was going to die. Shaking with fear, he was at a loss about what to do. 

On the road right behind Sam were a delivery worker named Hans and his nephew Martin, who were on the way to deliver furniture to customers in the countryside. They witnessed the horrible incident, and when Sam's truck came to rest in the middle of the overflowing creek, Hans quickly began to take action. First, he grabbed a rope from the back of his vehicle and used it to ensure he could safely approach the truck.

Dear John,

When it comes to Chinese Kung fu masters, most people will probably think of Bruce Lee, who is    (global) known for his classical skintight yellow jumpsuit and nunchucks(双节棍).1973 was the year   Lee passed away. So this year marks the 50^th anniversary of Lee's death.

Born in San Francisco and raised in Hong Kong, Lee bridged the gap between East and West, learning martial arts while   (absorb) in philosophy. He not only mastered Wing Chun, a style of martial arts from southern China, but also created his own style called Jeet Kune Do(截道拳)，which combines the strongest parts of different martial arts into a single style. Lee believed that "the best fighter is not a boxer, karate or judo man. The best fighter is someone who can adapt   any style to be formless, to adopt an individual's own style and not following the system of styles.

   ( spread) Chinese martial arts to the world and embrace universal equality, Lee  (establish) a martial school in the US, taking in followers from different nationalities,and changed the idea that martial arts could only be taught to adult Chinese males in the 1960s.

"Lee's thinking showed a kind of equality beyond boundaries, countries and genders, promoting him to the status of a hero, Lee   have practised martial arts very hard before he became a kung Fu master," Wong Yiukeung, a fan of Lce and a cultural critic, said,

Even though Lee has left the world, his spirituality continues to resonate(共鸣) with a large number of   (admire) worldwide. Ma Fu keung, an advertising illustrator(插图画家) in his 60s，is one of them. Ma was skinny and often bullied when he was a teenager. But Lee' s films taught him that if a person is strong enough, he or she can protect themselves. To be in memory of Lee, Ma has devoted   (he) to making many short films describing Lee.

After Lee's former Hong Kong house was torn down in 2019, Wong spent years digitally reconstructing the residence to safeguard its legacy indefinitely in the virtual world. According to some news, by   end of this year, fans of L.ce will be able to visit the virtual replica(复制品) of the large house.

While I was driving a motorbike with one hand, a lady suddenly stepped into the street, I braked1  to try to avoid her. As a result, I fell heavily to the ground and my left arm became completely paralyzed(瘫痪的). 

Thus, I had to2  everything I used to do with two hands. As a person who would rather get lost than ask for directions, asking for3  is difficult for me. But I never expected things would4  after years of swimming training for the 2020 Paralympics(残奥会). 

When swimming, I need to wear a tight racing suit. It took a lot of practice to become5  slowly putting one on with one hand. However, 6 one was a different story. I was once stuck and half naked in a swimsuit. I still refused to bother others and was even7 to reach for a knife to find my way out. A girl near me saw me struggling. She rushed over and managed to8 me in a minute. 

At a Paralympic event, everyone player has a(n)9  . Being unwilling to10  a helping hand made me a(n)11  one. However the12  in that changing room helped me start to become a new normal person. 

At first, learning to ask for help was the adaptation that proved to be more difficult than putting on a13  with one hand. After some efforts, I realized learning to do so was not the decision I had14  made, but it became the win I15 wanting most. 

How to choose a career- for many, it's a big and scary question. Deciding on the right career path is one of the most important decisions you'll make in your life. With endless career options available, making the right choice can be overwhelming(令人不知所措的). Here is a practical guide on how to choose a career path. 

⁠. 

No matter who you are, I know there are plenty of things you're good at. Make a list of every single one that comes to mind. What subjects did you do very well in school? What talents do people compliment(赞美) you on? These are all evidences that tell you what your strengths are. Don't leave out any skill, even if you don't think it qualifies as a career skill. You never know how your unique set of strengths could transfer to a job. 

Figure out your motivation.

The next factor you need to consider is your mission, Who are the people you most want to help? What problems do you want to solve? What causes inspire or concern you? How have you been able to help people in ways that were meaningful to you?  ⁠, because without having a deeper purpose of or the reason for your work, it will be hard to stay with it in the long term. 

Do some research.

Thorough survey about the listed careers is of great importance. Here is where you could find out the minimum requirements for each profession educationally, physically and mentally. As you continue your research, first consider. jobs that are in line with your expectations. ⁠. 

Identify your passions激情).

Passion isn't just a pipe dream(白日梦). It's a very real and necessary part of doing a job that 's meaningful to you, No one wants to do work that makes them feel bored! Finding your passion doesn't mean the work will always be easy, but it does mean you'll be fulfilled while doing it. Make a list of the activities that bring you to life, energize you, inspire you, and make you lose track of time. 

⁠ when you choose the future job. 

A. List your skills

B. Don't worry about that

C. Make full use of your skills

D. You can be at the height of your career

E. These are important questions to ask yourself

F. Ignore ones that have little in common with your strong desire

G. Admittedly, the combination of the above steps proves extremely effectively

Rescue teams desperately sought survivors on August 6th after two boats carrying migrants sank off the Italian island of Lampedusa. 

In the immediate aftermath of the boats' loss on August 5th, Italy's coastguard said it had rescued 57 people and recovered two dead bodies - those of a woman from Ivory Coast and her1-year-old child. Local media reported on Sunday that at least 30 people remained missing and

were feared dead, 

Italy's Ansa news agency said survivors described how the two boats carrying people trying to illegally enter the European Union had set off from the Tunisian port of Sfax on Saturday. One boat was thought to have had 48 people on board and the other 42. Most were reportedly from sub-Saharan Africa, 

Reuters said the coastguard rescued the survivors from the water about 46 kilometers southwest of Lampedusa, which is about halfway between the North African nation of Tunisia and the larger Italian island of Sicily. The island has become a major destination for migrants from Africa wanting to enter the EU and claim asylum(政治避难). 

Italy's interior ministry said 92 , 000 people have arrived in Italy irregularly by sea so far this year to apply for asylum in the EU. During the same period last year, 42, 600 made the very dangerous journey. 

The ministry said at least 2 , 000 migrants have turned up on the island of Lampedusa in the past few days alone. Most had been rescued by the coastguard and by various charities from small boats in the Mediterranean Sea. 

The International Organization for Migration, or IOM, which is the United Nations' migration

agency, said on Sunday both boats that sank on Saturday had been hit by major storms. 

Flavio Di Giacomo, a spokesman for the IOM, told the Agence France Presse news agency an official examination had been launched into the circumstances surrounding the loss of the boats. He said the probe will be conducted from the town of Agrigento, on the island of Sicily. "Whoever allowed them, or forced' them, to leave with this sea is equal to a mad criminal, "he said. "Rough seas are forecast for the next few days. Let's hope they stop. It's sending them to slaughter( 屠杀) with this sea. "

Emanuele Ricifari, the chief o[ police in Agrigento, said the people trffickers(人贩子)would surely have known rough seas were expected, 

Cars could soon be communicating with each other using 5G to make drivers aware of upcoming dangers, scientists say. The extremely fast mobile Internet would allow for rapid information transmission and could make drivers aware of black ice, pot holes or other dangers up ahead. 

Several car manufacturers(制造商) are already using 5G in their vehicles, including as a tool to help serve in the generation of self- driving vehicles. 

Experts at Glasgow Caledonian University(GCU) believe the high speed connection will also improve the reliability and capability of automated vehicles to the point where they will be safer than the manual(手动的) cars being driven today. They predict the number of road traffic accidents, which according to the World Health Organization account for more than 1. 3 million deaths and up to 50 million people injured worldwide every year, will drop really as a result. 

Dr Dimitrios Liarokapis, a member of the research group, said, "To have a better idea of what the future vehicles will look like, think of having such cars that not only use sensors to scan what S around them, they can also talk to each other and exchange safety-related information about their surroundings over an area that covers several square miles. With the help of 5G, a vehicle-generated early warning system that reminds drivers is possible within the next few years. Cars that are close enough to the danger area will transmit warning messages to other cars around them using short range communication technologies, but also to cars further away using 5G, fast and reliably. "

A few manufacturers are already working on connected cars. Of them, Ford told its intention to fit 80 percent of its future vehicles with technology that warns drivers about upcoming road accidents, bad weather and traffic jams. 

Living on the Florida Emerald Coast, people view a hurricane(飓风) as a common thing. So it is not unusual for a family to have several full gas cans and bottled water stored in their houses all summer. 

Though unwilling to evacuate(撤离) from a hurricane, on September 15, my family was forced to leave our home for my grandfather s house several miles away. We spent the early part of that evening watching the hurricane draw closer on the Weather Channel. Around nine o'clock. a loud sound shook the house, turned over the roof and carried it off. Soon came an indoor rainstorm. 

Realizing the damage, my grandfather began to be afraid, The storm had started, but he still ran out into the heavy rain and wind to see how much of the roof was left. We got him back inside. I had never seen him so scared. Mom finally asked him to lie down in his room. 

The leak(渗漏) had progressed rapidly. It soon became a race against time to protect what to be saved, Sore people may think it necessary to save material things, but I hoped to save those items with emotional value, such as the photos, I still feared the storm. but I more feared the influence it brought. 

The next morning, it started to clear up. Thankfully, my family came safely through the storm, though the same could not be said for the house, Only the wooden beams (梁)remained, but inside many of the things were safe, My mom and I had worked tirelessly through the night. 

It was late, but we were still unwilling to go to bed. We discussed the rebuilding of the house. Under the beautiful sky, we suggested looking after my grandfather more often in the future. After this disaster, I realized the truth that the hurricane itself was not so terrible if we loved each other.
