I stood there listening to my father shout at top of his voice. The    1    on his face said that one of us had done something wrong.

“   2   one of you did this? ”

We all stared down at the step. There was child’s handwriting in chalk there. I was very  3  . I hoped no one could see it. Would he guess it was me? I was so scared. When he asked me, I   4   , “Not me, Dad. ”

The others denied (否认) it as well. Of course, we all knew that one of us   5  have done it. But as the   6  and the smallest of the three, I just couldn’t find the courage to tell the  7   .

To find out who had written on the  8  , father gave us each a piece of paper and a pencil. “I want each of you to   9  exactly what you see on the step. ”

I tried my best to write the words  10 . I didn’t want Dad to be able to tell it was me.

He gathered up our pieces of paper and looked at them. “ Since  11 of you will

admit(承认) to have done it, then I will punish you all. ” I stood there and said  12 . The last thing I wanted was for Dad to punish me!

“ I  13 it. ” My sister stepped forward and said she had done something she hadn’t. She was punished for a month.

We didn’t talk   14 that day for many years. Not until we were all older and I knew it was safe to finally tell my dad it was really me. I always felt sorry  15  it. That was the last time I let anyone take the blame for me.

Do you know why different animals or pests(害虫) have their special colors? Colors in them seem to be mainly used to    1   themselves.

Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot    2  catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their   3   with the change of the colors of crops. When crops are green, locusts look    4 . But as the harvest time comes, locusts change into the same brown color    5  crops have. Some other pests whose colors are   6   plants are easily found and eaten by   7  . So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only   8  .

If you    9 animals’ life, you’ll find the main use of colors is to protect    10  . Bears, lions and other animals  11  quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters   12  their colors are much like the trees.

Colors are useful not only on the land, but also in the   13 . A kind of fish can   14  a kind of black liquid(液体) when they face danger. The liquid spreads over quickly, so they cannot be found by their enemies and can quickly swim away. That is   15  they can live safely though they are not strong at all. So colors are really useful to animals.

Every day cars kill or hurt many people on roads. Sometimes the drivers drive too fast or do not drive c  1  enough. Some of them break the traffic rules and cause accidents.
According to some researches, it is usually the pedestrians（行人）who cause the accidents. A lot of road users are very careless. They walk or run a  2 the roads in front of the cars. They walk in the roads but not on the walkways. They get i  3  or out of cars in the middle of the road. Some do not take the trouble to wait for the green lights and s   4 cross the roads against the red lights.
Many people think accidents often h   5 in busy roads in large cities, but this is not always t  6 For example, Tokyo is one of the world’s l  7  cities and probably one of the busiest cities; however ,there are a few a  8 to pedestrians. The reason is that the police there are very strict and the pedestrians are very careful. Pedestrians never cross against a red light and they always f  9 traffic rules.
Do you know alcohol（酒精）is a  10  main cause of traffic accidents? It delays people’s response. Those who have drunk alcohol are slow in making decisions. They n  11 a few more seconds to react（反应）.Alcohol drinking is e  12 dangerous for motor car drivers. It is not only drivers who may have accidents after drinking. drunken pedestrians may put their lives in danger as well.
