To keep our children safe from those dangerous criminals, these tips might be helpful. First, children should be encouraged always to ask permission from their caregiver before they go anywhere .They should not only tell the care giver where they will be at all times, but also who will be looking after them. also, children should never walk or ride their bikes alone. Instead, they should travel in groups whenever possible. more importantly, children should be taught to stay away from strangers, though they may offer to
show them a puppy or give them
candy.children should be taught to say “no” and run, scream, or fight if necessary. moreover,children should be told that no problem is too big or too small to ask grown-ups. in fact,it is never too late to ask for help ,and to keep asking until they get the help they need. last but not least ,we should realize that many child-attack cases involve a family member or family friend, for example, a stepfather, sister’s boyfriend, babysitter, neighbor, and so on.

Texas Police Arrest Oldest Bank Robber
7 4 5 6 8 3 2 1
Possible Retelling for the Teacher’s Reference
As the title suggests, the 90-year-old Henry Robert the Texas Police arrested may turn out to be the oldest bank
robber in history. Let me describe him from the very beginning.
When he was 80 years old he robbed his first bank in Florida because he wanted to get even with banks. For this robbery he received a three-year sentence in a Florida prison in 1999. A year ago he was set free. However, he continued with his outlaw career. In Texas, he robbed again, using an envelope labeled “Robbery”. He asked the teller to put money into the envelope. Unluckily for him, a witness took down the license number of his car that was parked outside. So he was arrested on a highway not far away from the city. He is now 90 years old, and therefore he is probably the oldest bank robber in American history. If proved guilty, he will be sentenced to ten to twenty years in prison.

So, probably, in the middle of the party, Julie went to the hall, put on her coat, took the vase, rushed outside, hid the vase somewhere before she came back. She put her coat on the rack -- on top of the rack this time. Unit9

Possible Retelling for the Teacher’s Reference
A police 0fficer pulls over a driver and orders him to produce his driver’s license because he was speeding．The driver claims that he has lost his
license for drunk driving．The officer is surprised and asks him to show his vehicle registration papers．The driver then answers that he does not have those papers，for he stole the car and killed the owner, though nobody knows why he says so．The officer is so shocked that he cannot believe his ears，so he asks the driver to say it again．To confirm what he has said，the driver says the lady’s body is in the trunk．By now the officer
is horrified．so he calls the police station for support．When the police chief arrives，he orders the driver to open the trunk to find evidence of the crime．The driver opens it，but it is empty；and this shows that he is
innocent．Unconvinced，the chief asks for his vehicle registration papers and license to see whether he is
guilty~，,,The driver quickly hands over both to show that he is really innocent．The chief is now puzzled，saying that an 9mcer did report to him that the driver did not have a license，stole the car, and killed the owner．To this，the driver answers that he bets the officer must have said he was speeding as well．By saying so，the driver suggests that the officer，S accusation of his speeding must be false too Discussion
Possible Answer for the Teacher’s Reference
Even if the driver cleverly shows that he is not guilty of stealing the car and killing the owner, this does not
necessarily mean he did not speed．We must take all possibilities into consideration．
To begin with，we should try to find out whether there is any evidence to show the driver was speeding．For example，we can check the records of the radar device or police video，or find human witnesses．
Failing this，we may check whether the driver had any record of lying or cheating，or whether he had many previous traffic violations 0r a
criminal record．If so，we can hardly trust his words．But this cannot yet provide conclusive evidence of his speeding．
We might like to investigate whether the police officer has a record of lying or cheating since his statement contradicts the driver’s．This is normally impossible，for a habitual liar would have been dismissed from the police force．In fact，a policeman is
usually assumed to be honest unless proved otherwise in a court of law． If the driver is found guilty of speeding，he should be punished for that as well as for the lies he told about the theft and murder

Possible Retelling for the Teacher’s Reference
Helen is telling us about her horrible experience. One evening she was preparing for her
examination in the basement of her house. Her parents had gone out shopping. Suddenly she heard
footsteps on the floor above. Knowing that she should be the only person at home, she was scared
almost out of her wits. Obviously, a burglar had come in through the window that was left open
for fresh air. Plucking up her courage, Helen took a toy gun from the cupboard and went upstairs.
On the way she shouted, “ George, take the dog out.” Also to frighten the thief, she turned on
some lights. The burglar must have heard all the noise and rushed out of the window where he got
on. Now Helen felt somewhat relieved. She tried to phone her parents, but her trembling hand was
simply unable to dial the number.
