When it was their turn to go on the stage, they often said, Its time to face the music. An actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved onto the stage in front of the audience because they might be friendly, or perhaps they are hostile, especially if he forgot what he would say. But he had to go out. If he did not, there would be no play. He would lose his job. To face the music is well known to every American, young or old. It is at least 100 years old.

People on footpedestrians(行人), and bicycle riders often cause accidents, too. Pedestrians sometimes walk out into the street without looking. You should always look on both sides before stepping into the street.Do any of you ride a bike? Bicycle riders can cause accidents by changing directions suddenly or without warning other road users. Before you turn left, for example, you should check behind you to make sure there arent any cars, trucks or buses coming. You should show with your left hand to tell that you want to turn left. You should not turn until the street is clear.The rules of the road are very simple. If we learn them and obey(遵守)them, we should not have accidents any more.
