For children, it is important to know how to keep themselves safe when they are at home alone. If you are one of them，what should you do? Let me give you some advice. When you arrive at your home, you should check the doors and windows first. If they are broken, it says someone must have entered. If so, wait outside and tell your parents or the police. If everything appears normal，you should go inside and lock the door quickly. If something seems strange inside, you should ask your neighbour for help and call the police. If someone knocks at the door, you should identify the visitor before you open the door. This can be done by saying, Yes, who is it? You can also look through the peephole to see if you know the visitor. If you dont know the person very well, dont open the door. You should not allow strangers to enter the house or give out any information about your family. You should be polite when you talk with the stranger, but remain behind the closed door. If the visitor wants to speak to your parents, you should say that the parents cant come to the door at the moment and offer to take a message.4.

How to talk to strangers. C. How to be a brave child. D. How to be safe at home.C Rubbish sorting (分类) may not sound like much fun. But there is a new mobile game that may change your idea about it, and you might even learn something while you play it Meet Sortee.Meet Sortee is a puzzle game developed by Flow Studio, a UK company. It makes you think deeply about everyday objects (物体) and their meanings. The rule of the game is quite simple. Two bins are placed on either side of the screen. Each of the bins has a label (标签) next to it and the label explains what it is for. When an object, such as a car or an apple, appears (出现) on the screen, you need to decide which bin it should be sorted into and then send it there by moving your finger.The game seems easy enough at first. But as you move on to more levels, it gets harder. The number of bins increases (增长) to three or four and the time given gets shorter. You need to think and move faster. That can be really difficult.There are 400 objects in total and more than 100 bins in the game. The more objects you correctly sort, the more game coins(硬币) you can get. Its a bit like working in a rubbish recycling center, but it has no bad smell.You can download(下载) the free game from Apples app store (苹果软件下载中心), but it only lets you play the first few levels. If you want to open the next 40 levels, you need to pay 6 yuan for the full game.7. Maybe this article is taken from _. A. a postcard B. a newspaperC. a comic bookD. a novel8.
