    　　As children grow, so does their desire to become independent．　　1　　 As parents, our job is to find the right balance between kids' desire for independence and the need to keep kids safe．

    　　Kids need to be allowed, in fact encouraged; they like to be given certain risks．　　2　　 The right risk level for your child will depend on their age, developmental level, and character．It will change over time, and there are few hard and fast rules that apply to every child．

    　　　　3　　 Every time you put your kids in the car you are putting them at risk．It is a fact of life．

    　　So what is a parent to do?We must encourage them to explore their world while setting clear limits where safety is an issue．　　4　　 We must let them run, but be prepared to catch them when they fall．We can't take their steps for them; we can only point out the path．

    　　It's hard to imagine when they are small, but someday very soon they will be walking, riding a bike, even driving!　　5

    Where do foods get their names？

    　　Some foods take their names from the people who invented them．The sandwich is a common lunch food．It took its name from James Montague．Montague lived in the 1700s．He was the Fourth Earl of Sandwich．Sandwich is an area in England．Montague liked to play cards very much．One day, he was playing in a very exciting card game．It was so exciting that he didn't want to leave the table and eat his lunch．He told his servant to bring him some meat between two slices of bread．According to the story, Montague thought he discovered a convenient way to eat a meal．He could eat his dinner and go on with his card game at the same time! That was the beginning of the sandwich．If you like sandwiches, you can thank John Montague for his invention．

    　　Other foods take their names from the people who liked to eat them．Do you ever eat toast for breakfast? Have you ever eaten Melba toast? Melba toast is a very thin slice of bread that has been toasted for a long time．It is very hard and dry．An accident led to the creation of Melba toast．Nellie Melba was a famous singer at a hotel in London．One day she ordered regular toast．The chef made a mistake and cut the bread much thinner than usual．When he toasted the bread, it became very crisp and dry．A waiter took the toast to Nellie Melba before the chef could stop him．The chef was upset by his blunder．He went to apologize to Ms Melba．To his surprise, she was eating his“mistake”．She told the chef that the toast tasted wonderful．The chef began serving the thin, dark toast to other guests at the hotel．He gave the new item a very special name．he called it Melba toast．Today, you can buy Melba toast in most grocery stores．

    　　It's fun to find out how foods got their names! Can you think of any other foods that take their name from people!

    I stood by my window overlooking(眺望，俯视) the _28_, having nothing better to do. But as it turned out, I was soon to learn about something _29_ in life.

    As I watched several people go by, get into their cars and drive off, I 30 an old man on a bicycle with a bucket（水桶） _31_ on its handle(把手) and pieces of old and used cloth in a basket and bottles on its back-carriage(后座).

He must have begun to work quite early in the morning.

    It was a 43 to learn, I felt. One doesn’t have to beg for a 44 at any age if one is in good health and willing to work hard. For a while I felt 45 of myself. Though I am young —just sixteen, and there was this old man before me who must have got up very early and been busy working so hard and actively.
