3._____________________.

4._____________________.
You probably want your parents to do that, too. Parents are more likely to agree with you and say “yes” when kids are cooperative.(配合的)
5._____________________.
Consider doing something special for your parents on their birthdays. You can tell them you love them by trying a hug, a note, a kiss, or a simple thank-you.
Your mom tells you to put on your hat and gloves. But as the cold winter season gets closer, it’s so cold that even mom’s advice does not work.
That means it’s time to put on your qiuku! This is a kind of “thermal underwear(保暖内衣)” or long underpants that keep people warm in the coldest months of the year.
In Western countries, qiuku is usually known as long johns, but they aren’t popular. Long johns in the US are usually two pieces, a long-sleeved(长袖的) shirt and long pants, worn under other clothing or sometimes even used as pajamas(睡衣).
Long johns first appeared in England during the 17th century. We call them long johns because the US boxer John L. Sullivan wore them while he boxed. But this is not a historical fact.
In the US, it gets quite cold and snowy in many places. And while parents often push kids to wear more clothes and long underwear, it’s very special when young people actually(实际上) put them on.
Part of the reason might be because it’s not very fashionable(时尚的) and another reason might be because people don’t spend much time outside during the cold months. So they just deal with the freezing(冰冻的) temperatures when they have to leave the warm building. But in their parents’ eyes, staying warm is more important than looking nice.

Tuesday, Jan. 6, 9:50 p.m.
We were sitting in our warm living room. The TV was on, and everything was peaceful. Suddenly the light went on and off for a few times and then went out completely. Then the rain started, and everything went black. We found the flashlight and some candles and went to bed.
Wednesday, Jan. 7, 7:30 a.m.
My first thought after waking up was that it was pretty cold in my bedroom. Clearly, the power (电力供应) didn’t come back. After I looked out of the window, I felt even sadder: it was still raining heavily. The room was becoming colder and colder. We had no idea when the power would come back, so my wife started a fire in the fireplace.
Thursday, Jan. 8, 12:30 p.m.
The snow started. The poor trees now had to carry the heavy snow. The storm seemed to last (持续) and we had nothing to do but stay at home.
Friday, Jan. 9, 6:00 p.m.
Still no power. Even though we lit (点燃) a few candles, it was still difficult to do anything in their weak light. I was sitting near several candles, but I had trouble reading.
Saturday, Jan. 10, 1:00 p.m.
The storm stopped this morning, and I drove my car to look for an open store. The trees along the roads were broken. I only bought the most necessary things: bread, some fruit, more drinking water and batteries (电池) for the flashlight. On my way home, the power came back and people were very happy.

San Francisco has its cable cars, and Longview has its squirrel bridge. The bridge, which has attracted lots of a 1. , is now a local landmark (地标). The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963 by a local builder, Amos Peters, to give squirrels a way to c 2.the busy road without getting hurt by passing cars.
The original bridge was built over Olympia Way on the west edge of the library grounds. Many times, Peters and others w 3.worked in and near Park Plaza often saw squirrels run over. One day Peters found a dead squirrel w 4.a nut (坚果) still in its mouth, and that day’s coffee break discussion turned into squirrel s 5. . The group of businessmen thought of the squirrel bridge idea later and they n 6.the bridge “Nutty Narrows”.
After architects (建筑师) designed the bridge, Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started construction. The 60-foot bridge c 7.1,000 dollars.
It didn’t take long before reports of squirrels using the bridge started. Squirrels were even seen guiding their young to cross the bridge. The s 8.was picked up by the media (媒体), and Nutty Narrows became known in newspapers. In 1983, after 20 years of use, Peters took down the worn-out bridge. Repairs were m 9.and crosspieces(横木) were replaced. The faded sign was repainted and in July 1983, h 10.of animal-lovers attended the completion ceremony (竣工仪式) of the new bridge. Peters died in 1984, and a ten-foot wooden squirrel sculpture was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion to the project.
