Accidents happen almost every day．Some accidents are not serious and some are．We read about such accidents nearly every day in the newspapers．It is wrong for people to think that accidents take place only on the roads or highways，or even at work places．Home accidents are just as common．Because very few home accidents are reported，people come to think that there are few accidents which happen in homes．
There have been many cases where people fall to their deaths from high rise flats．Children often fall over while coming down the stairs．Old people may slip （滑跤） on wet floors if they are not careful．
Nowadays there are a lot of modern electrical appliances （电器） such as rice cookers which make life easy for the modern housewives．These appliances can kill if they are not used in the proper way．Gas stoves （煤气灶） used for cooking are also dangerous if they are not properly used．They may cause burns or，in more serious cases，even fires．
But all such accidents can be stopped if we are careful and follow simple rules of safety．For example，it is unwise for people to try repairing their own electrical appliances if they do not know how to．It is safer to get them repaired by an electrician （电工）．

As it is known to us, fewer and fewer students do sports regularly, what makes them weak and easily tired.
There are many reasons about this. First of all, some of the students complain that they have too many homework, result in less time to take exercise. Beside, some of them think that it is very difficult for them to keep doing exercise, because it is very hard thing.
For lack of physical activities, many students were in poor health. I suggest that our school must take measures to encourage more students to take part in sports. For us students, no matter what busy we are, it is necessary to spare some time to do exercise.
