Passage 1
If you plan to travel a short distance, by feet may be the fastest way in most cities. During rush hours, there are often traffic jams on urban roadways, and in some places, sometimes it is difficult for vehicles to move even one step. Therefore, many people like walking, but you should pay attention to the traffic regulations. In many cities, it is illegal for you to cross the street except at the corner. You cannot cross the street unless you have a green light on the other side. In some small towns, the traffic regulations are not often followed strictly, as the traffic is not very heavy. However, the purpose of the law it to provide safety and protection for everyone, so it is essential that everyone should obey traffic signals.
Passage 2
When you get hurt, you should keep calm. Take two or three breath and think about the things make you happy, such as the beauty of nature, the people you loved. Don’t wait for an apology, and remember that forgiveness doesn’t necessarily mean accepting the offense. You can write a letter to yourself from the other people’s point of view and try to see thing from that person’s perspective. You may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance, fear, even love.
