He is a young man who seems to have brains in his feet as well as his mind.
     Brazilian (巴西的) football star Ricardo Kaka's performances make the point well. He is one of the top
scorers in the UEFA Champions League (欧洲冠军杯). Kaka helped AC Milan beat Manchester United 3-0. The
win took Kaka and AC Milan to the finals of the UEFA cup in 2007.
     Like many Brazilian football players, Kaka is now world famous. But he is not like most Brazilian players.
Most of his pals were once poor. Football made them famous and rich.
     The 27-year-old Kaka is a different kind of star.
     He was born to a rich family and enjoyed a comfortable early life. He joined Sao Paulo club at eight and
signed as a professional (职业的) player at 15. Three years later, he was the best player in the team. 
     "I plan my career (事业) by setting myself goals," he explained. "My goals drive me, they are what I fight
for." 
     And his next goal is to help the poor children. "When I was with the national team, we went to play in some
of the poorer areas." He said. "You see children who don't have enough to eat." 
     Kaka believes he can do something. Since November 2004, Kaka has been an Ambassador (大使) Against
Hunger for the UN World Food Program.

    On May 8, a team of Chinese climbers lit the Olympic flame on the top of Mount Qomolangma. It was
a historic moment for China. China has promised to the world to light the Olympic flame on the top of the
world when applying to (申请) hold the Games. Now, the dream has come true. 
    Five torchbearers (火炬手) finished the highest relay ever. Three of them are Tibetan athletes. The Olympic
flame reached the foot of the Mt Qomolangma on April 26. But high winds and heavy snow delayed (推迟)
the mission. The team had set out at about 2 o'clock on the morning of May 8. It took them six hours to
reach the 8,844-meter Himalayan peak. They showed the Olympic flag, the Beijing Games flag and the
Chinese national flag on the top of Qomolangma. "Beijing welcomes you!" team members said when they lit
the torch. "We are on top of the world!" shouted Nima Cering. He has climbed the peak several times. But
he said that this was most important climb. "As a Tibetan and a Chinese, I pray for (祈祷) the success of
Beijing 2008," he added. 
    The relay on the top of Qomolangma is the Olympic motto,"higher, faster and stronger", in practice. It
will also promote the unity of all the 56 ethnic groups in China.

    Sudden shaking of the ground makes an earthquake. It is caused by a sudden rock movement underground.
Earthquakes usually happen in long narrow belts, where different large plates of rock meet.
    In spite of much research and wonderful equipment, it is impossible to predict an earthquake accurately (准
确地), although experts can estimate roughly (大概推测) an earthquake coming in a particular region. So
everyone needs to learn a bit about how to keep oneself safe in an earthquake. As you may know, the greatest
danger of an earthquake comes from falling buildings and structures and flying glass, stones and other objects.
Please read on for some tips about how to stay safe in an earthquake:
    ●If you are indoors, find a secure location to wait out the quake, such as under a heavy table or desk. Door
        ways are among the safest places to stand because you can brace (支撑) yourself between two walls.
        However, watch out for swinging doors. Stay away from windows.
    ●If you are outdoors, try to get into an open area, away from falling buildings, power lines, trees, etc.
    ●If you are in a crowded public area, crouch down (蹲下), with your hands protecting your head and neck. 
    ●If you are in your car, pull over to the side, away from power lines and overpasses, and stay inside the
        car until the shaking stops.

     Maybe you are not interested in math. Maybe you think school life is boring. You probably think you will
never be a top student. In fact, anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. If you can use your
time well, you may improve your study without much work. Here's how:
     Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week time, you should make a list of things that you have to
do. First write down the time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide on a good time for studying. Of
course, studying shouldn't take all of your time. Don't forget to leave yourself enough time for hobbies.
     Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study place. Keep this space, which may be
a desk or just a corner of your room. No games, radio, or television! When you sit down to work, think only
about the subject!
     Make good use of your time in class. Listen carefully to what the teacher says. If you listen carefully in
class, you may do less work later. You also need to take notes in class, because it can make it easier for you to
learn well.
     There are only a few ways mentioned here to help you with your studying. I believe you will find many other
ways besides these.
