     Taking an after-school class will give you a head start in high school. But if it means walking home
every day, even in snow and rain, would you do it?
     I did. I took part in an after-school Spanish class. Because it was after school, no school buses were
there to take me home when the class ended. And my parents couldn't pick me up, so I had to walk home.
     At first I hated the walk because of the long distance. But after a few months, I got used to (习惯于)
it and it became one of my daily activities, like getting dressed and brushing my teeth. And I began to
enjoy it. I got to see things like birds flying and trees changing color. A few times I saw something very
special, like a small snake near the sidewalk, or two cars that came very close to crashing!
     Many of my classmates saw what I did. Once, one girl in my class asked her mother to drive me
home because it was raining outside, and I didn't have an umbrella (雨伞). Some people who I didn't
know even gave me a ride - they thought it was too cold out.
     People always think walking long distances is difficult. Modern technology (技术) makes common
things, like walking, seem impossible. Many people, like myself, live in the country and are close to
nature, but also far away from it because of technology.

  Strong winds, sand in the air, poor visibility(能见度), we all know the characteristics(特点)of a sandstorm.But what else do you know about them?

  Do you know for example, that the first sandstorm of 2009 hit north China's Inn Mongolia late February?

  Sandstorms are today a special treat of life in northern China because of desertification(沙漠化)and the retreat(退化)of northern grasslands.They usually occur(出现在)between February and May.

  Fortunately, sandstorms this year should be fewer than in past years in north China, according to the National Meteorological Center(中央气象台).

  And the chances of sandstorms hitting Beijing are small, because recent rain has stopped drought(旱灾).Tree planting, and other measures taken by the government, has also helped decrease the chance of sandstorm in the city.

  Sandstorms can be dangerous.However, there are measures you can take to protect yourself from harm.

  ◆Wear a mask.Cover your nose and mouth with a mask that can keep out sand, or use a wet handkerchief.

  ◆If you are driving and the storm is far away from you, it may be possible to outrun it.If it looks like you will be caught in the storm, stop and wait it out.

  ◆Take cover.If there is no shelter, then lie down.Keep eyes, nose and mouth covered.Cover your head with your arms or a backpack to protect yourself against flying objects.

  If you are caught in a desert sandstorm, take the following action.

  ◆Mark your direction before lying down.It is easy to get lost in a desert.

  ◆Keep plenty of water at hand.If you get lost, you need water to keep your life until you find your way or help arrives.

  ◆Stay together if traveling in a group.Lock arms if caught in a sandstorm.

  The most useful measure would actually be to make sandstorms disappear forever.To make this goal come true, people should plant trees, and stop desertification.

  Today, the straight-line distance between Tian'anmen Square and a desert called Tianmo in Hebei province is only about 80km.If desertification is not stopped, environmental protection experts say, it will probably not be long until Beijingers can catch a camel to work.
