Confidence is very important in daily life. It can help you to develop a healthy attitude （态度）. A study shows that the people who are more confident are much happier. They can have more chance to make themselves successful. But how to be more con fident? Here are some suggestions:

Speak loud   When you are not confident, you can't do well what you want to do. You speak in a voice so low that other people can hardly hear you. Try to speak loud enough so that people can hear you clearly. The high voice can help you become more confident.

Play sports   Physical exercise makes you tired but completely relaxed. A strong body helps you be full of confidence.

Encourage yourself  Write down a list of things you did during the day to see how many things you have done well. Did you finish your homework? Did you tell a joke that made everybody laugh? Give yourself praise for the good things you've done.

Get rid of （克服） fear  Fear comes along with failure. But it's easy to overcome if you know that failure is part of your life. Don't hide your head just because you said something stupid last time. Try to start again and believe you can do better.

Pick up a hobby   If you like singing, sing as much as you can. In some ways, a hobby can make you outstanding. And it will make you happy and confident.

You wan t to run across the street to catch the bus which is leaving soon? But wait! You’d better not. If a p oliceman sees you, you’ll have to pay a fine （罚款）. New traffic laws say that if people cross the street when the light is red, they can be fined as much as 50 yuan.

Traffic accidents killed more than 104,000 people in China last year. Chinese cities have more cars than ever. Drivers and pedestrians must work together to make the streets safer.

The law has new rules for drivers and pedestrians. Drivers have to slow down when they are close to crosswalks. If people are in a crosswalk, cars must stop to let them pass.

There are rules for bus drivers, too. If bus drivers smoke, drink or make phone calls while driving, they can be fined. Buses that carry too many people are also against the law.

Pedestrians will have to walk more safely under the new law. They must cross streets at crosswalks. Also, they shouldn’t climb over the fences （栅栏） along streets.

Do you bike to school? It’s not a good idea to carry classmates on the back. You could be fined 50 yuan. And stay in the bike lane （慢车道） when you’re riding. The big roads are for cars and buses.

Do you like to ride your uncle’s motorbike? When you put on your helmet（头盔）, ask him to put one on, too. People on motorbikes must wear helmets, the new law says. If they don’t, they’ll have to pay 200 yuan.

Do you ride in cars often? Don’t forget to put on your seat belt（安全带）, even if you’re going for a short taxi ride. It could save your life.

If you see a hit-and-run （肇事逃逸）, tell the police. They may give you a reward （奖赏）. And don’t be afraid to help people to the hospital if they are hurt in an accident. Don’t worry about money. The new law says that doctors must take care of them even if they can’t pay right away.

六、阅读表达（每小题2分，共10分） 

Have you ever thought about one question: why do we need to learn math?

（1）visitors can test that a person’s arm span（臂展） equals their height. At another station, visitors can control the robot with the help of math skills.

　　（2）The exhibition will visit 15 US and international cities in the next five years. Organizers say they want more kids to learn why math is important in daily life. Think of simple things， like clocks. （3）They tell time, but only if you know how to read them. That means using math. How much longer until school ends? How long did you sleep last night? That’s all math, too.

　　（4）When you go ________, you also do lots of math. How much change would you get if you paid for a 25.99-yuan sweater with two twenties? How would you calculate a 30% discount（折扣）? Even when you’re not doing math, it’s all around you. The computer you use to surf the Internet is a machine to do binary （二进制） math very fast.
