Keep your living room around 18-21C. The rest of the house should be at least 16 C.
Winter coats warm you up from the outside. Several layers (层) of thin clothing, such as a shirt or a thin sweater, make you warmer, too.

四 . A week in the life of our newspaper 听力
READING newspapers is an important part of our daily life. But do you know how a newspaper is made?
There are many steps to making a newspaper. Take Teens for example. On Monday, editors (编辑) and reporters hold a meeting to decide on the stories for the week’s paper. On Tuesday and Wednesday, reporters write news stories. Cartoonists draw cartoons and photographers take pictures to match the stories. Foreign (外国的) editors check the language.
On Thursday, page designers (美编) put the stories, cartoons and pictures on the pages. Editors read through the stories to find mistakes and write headlines (标
) and captions (图片说明).
Friday is a busy day. Page designers print the page drafts (清样). Editors read pages and check them again. At night, Teens comes out in the printing house.
Teens is a weekly newspaper. Daily newspapers have all the same steps, but do them all in a day instead of a week.

ONE Saturday, Bob decides to take a drive through the countryside (乡下). After a few hours, he sees a dog walking behind a man on the side of the road. As the car comes near them, the dog jumps into the road. Of course, the car hits the poor animal and kills (轧死) it.
Bob stops his car and walks up to the man. “I’m very sorry,” he says. “Is there anything I can do? Will $10 (64 yuan) help?”
