There is always something that we can never forget. And it can really change our life.

Time is important for everyone. It organizes our everyday moments. However, before I received a watch from my father, time

never had any importance in my life. It organized my life and made me more responsible(有责任的).

I received this gift on a Sunday. I had to go to the airport at 9:00 am to pick up Uncle Jim and take him to my father’s house.

However, I was late because I hung out with my friends. Later on that day, around 11:00am, I remembered my uncle and went to the airport to meet him, but I was too late. He had left the airport and taken a taxi to my father’s house.

I got to my father’s house at 2:00 pm that day. Looking at my father’s face, I felt ashamed at that moment. My father __1__ me to sit next to him and he handed me this watch as a gift. Then he said, “Bob, did you have fun with your friends today?” “Yes, Father, and I’m sorry about not picking up Uncle Jim,” I __2__. He then said, “What you did was not very nice and you should be sorry for your actions. I think you should learn something from it, and this watch will be a reminder(使人忆起某物） for you in your future life.” The watch is very important to me, not because of its price, but because of the lesson that I learned from it.

Today I still remember what my father said. “Respect(尊重) time and never be late for anything.”

Some Advice on Safety

Always play in a safe place. A park is a safe place because there are no cars or trucks. But do not talk to strangers. Never go with a stranger into a car.

When crossing the road, stop and look both ways. Look left, look right and look left again.

Keep away from houses or buildings that are being built or knocked down. Something might fall on your head, or you might cut yourself on broken glass.

Medicines or pills can be dangerous. Never swallow（吞下） any pills or medicines you find in the cupboard.

Don’t swim in the pool or river without adults. Wearing a life jacket is necessary whenever you go out in a boat. Even if you are not in the open sea and the water is not deep, you should have your life jacket on. It is easy to fall out of a boat.

Do not put your head out of a car, bus or train. Many children have been killed by doing this.

The Sunday Mail magazine interviewed some parents about whether

children should do housework at home. Different people have different opinions.

Ms Miller thinks kids these days already have enough stress from school. They don’t have time to study and do housework, too.

Housework is a waste of their time. They should spend their time on

schoolwork in order to get good grades and get into a good university. When kids get older, they will have to do housework. So there is no need for them to do it now.

Doing housework helps develop their independence and teaches them how to look after themselves. It can also helps them to understand the idea of fairness. The earlier kids learn to be independent, the better it is for their future. 1. what does Mr. Smith think doing housework can help?
