The storm,which came from Mongolia, was the largest sandstorm in China in the past 10 years.Many flights and classes were cancelled(取消)because the visibility(能见度) was lower than 500 metres. The storm was the result of warm and dry weather in the area,together with the strong winds from Mongolia."There has been little rainfall so far this spring and the temperature is rising.So now it is a worrying time for sandstorms,"said an expert from Beijing. In recent years,sandstorms haven't been as common in northern China as before.The land with desertification(沙漠化)has been falling by 7,585 km2 per year in China,and the area of sandy land has been decreasing by 1,284 km2 a year.This is thanks to China's Three- North Shelter Forest Program(TNSFP三北防 护林工程)which started in the 1970s.Millions of trees have been planted in northern China to prevent sandstorms and protect the environment.

We should make sure the playground is safe for the children.It should be soft and thick enough,so when the children fall,they won't hurt too much.Things like water,rocks or broken glass might cause danger to the kids. Cleaners should check the playground from time to time and clear away these dangerous things. In fact,children also need to help keep the playground clean and safe.That means each time after playing they should pick up the Unit 6 When disaster strikes rubbish(垃圾)they've produced.If someone finds there is something wrong with the facilities(设施)，he or she should report to the keeper of the playground,so people will come to fix it. Teaching kids how to play safely is also very important.If they know the rules of the playground,they won't get hurt easily.For example,they should never push when others are on seesaws or swings.If someone is going to jump off some equipment,he or she should first look down to make sure no other kids are in the way.Of course,maybe it is also helpful to wear the right clothes.Clothes with strings (can get caught on equipment which may hurt the kid badly. In short,our kids can both enjoy themselves and be safe if we are working together to improve the situation. 根据短文内容，完成下列句子（每空一词）。 1.Playgrounds fresh air and exercise to kids.However,over thousand kids are hurt every year while playing in the playgrounds. 2.If the playground is and enough,the children won't hurt too much when they fall. 3.Children should the rubbish they've produced after playing. 4.Teachers should teach children to play in a way in the playground.Wearing the right may also be of some help to keep safe. 5.If we work together to the situation,kids can not only themselves but also be safe. 75着想，而不仅仅是为自己着想。所以care for与look after意思相近。 2.B推理判断题。根据“But some things on the internet aren't for children,so try to look at the websites that are good for you.”可知，要浏览对你有 好处的网页，结合选项可知，好的网站对孩子的学习 有帮助。 3.A推理判断题。根据“Have you ever copied someone else's work in an exam?Don't do that again!

They are like invisible guardians,guiding our actions and keeping everything in order.
