Jessi remembers that when she and Joey first started staying at home alone, they weren't allowed to open the door for anyone or invite any friends to their home. Now Jessi's allowed to invite over any friend that her mum knows well.

Every family has different home alone rules. Here are some common rules:

“Closed door” policy (原則)

Don't open the door for anyone except a brother, sister or parent.

Keep all doors locked, at all times.

Checking in

When you get home, call your parents to let them know that everything's OK.

Phone calls

Only pick up the phone if it's a parent, relative, or friend who your parents know.

If you answer the phone and the person asks for a parent, just say that he or she is busy and can't come to the phone. Never tell a stranger on the phone that you're home alone!

Snacks

If you feel nervous about using appliances like the oven, you may have some snacks instead of (代替) cooking food yourself.

Visiting friends

Most children have a rule that no friends are allowed in the house when they're home alone. This may be no fun but in the end, is safe for everyone.

Staying inside

Your parents may want you to stay at home and not to go anywhere—not even a friend's house, park, or store.

No Internet

Many parents, including Jessi and Joey's mum, ask their children to wait until a parent is home before going online.

These rules are very important. Follow them when you're home alone.

A. Jessi could open the door for her mum's friends.

B. Joey could open the door for his mum's friends.

B. Sorry, you called the wrong number.

C. Sorry, my mum doesn't want to talk to you.

D. Sorry, my mum is busy and can't answer your phone.

3.The underlined word “appliances” means “________” in Chinese.

Eric Liddell was known as the flying Scotsman(蘇格蘭人) because he ran so fast. But he is most remembered as a man of honour and bravery.

He was born in 1902 in Tianjin, northern China. In Chinese, he was known as Li Airui. Eric lived in China until the age of five. After that his parents sent him to school in England. In 1920, Eric went to the University of Edinburgh to study science.

Sports played a large part in his life and he became the fastest runner in Scotland. He was chosen to be part of Britain's 1924 Olympic team. The games were in Paris. The 100?metre race was his best event, but it was to be held on a Sunday. Eric,a strong Christian(基督教徒), refused to run on Sundays because he believed that it should be a day of rest as the Bible(圣經(jīng)) teaches.

Although many people told him to run the race, he refused. Instead he started to train for other distances. At the Olympics he won a bronze medal in the 200?metre race and then a gold medal in the 400?metre race, setting a world record.

Though then famous in Scotland, Eric still loved and remembered China. He wanted to go back to the country where he was born. In 1925, he went to China and worked as a middle school teacher in Tianjin. Then he went to Hebei Province to help the poor people there.

After the Japanese invaded(入侵) China, Eric chose to stay. He wanted to help the sick and give hope to the Chinese people. In 1943, the Japanese sent him to a prison camp(集中營) in Weifang. Even in the camp, he continued to help the old people. He also arranged games for the children, and taught them science.

In 1945, Eric was very ill. He was given a chance to leave the camp but he refused. Instead he gave this chance to a pregnant woman. The inspiring man died six months before the end of the war. Many people still remember his service to the Chinese people of that area.
