You probably enjoy riding a bicycle. But because more injuries(伤害) happen with bicycles than with any other kind of vehicle(交通工具), it is important that you keep your bicycle in good working condition and obey some safety rules while you ride.
To help prevent accidents, ride your bicycle on the roads that have little traffic. If you can reach your destination(目的地) by way of quiet streets, instead of riding on a main street with a lot of traffic, your trip will be much safer. Whenever you ride on a road or street, you are responsible(负有责任的) to know and put into practice bicycle safety rules. Always ride on the right side of the road so that cars can pass you safely. Because they go in the same direction as you and you share the road with other kinds of traffic, it is very important that you obey traffic signs.
Sometimes the best way to travel from one place to another is to walk. As a pedestrian(步行者), you must remember that you are not the only traveller. Car and bus drivers, truckers and motorcyclists may all pass by quickly without seeing you. Walk on sidewalks(人行道)whenever possible. If there is no sidewalk and you have to walk on the road, you should walk on the left side facing traffic. By walking toward the oncoming cars, you will be able to see and move away from danger before anything hits you. If you have to cross the road, be sure to look in both directions to see that the way is clear. You can never be too careful, but the most important for you is to follow the traffic safety rules.

Hello, everyone. Back to the life in the past year, I think I have changed a lot and made great progress in many ways.
I'm sure I will do better and better in Grade 9. Thanks for listening!
Did you know that when you surf the web, websites in some countries put secret software on your computer? The software collects a large amount of information about you and sends it to internet companies. The internet companies sell it to other businesses. Your personal information can also be gathered from social media sites. There are many ways your information can be used.
First, companies collect your information and record all your online habits. They find out where you live, what websites you visit and what you do online. With this information, they can guess other things about you. For example, they can guess if you are male or female, how old you are and your interests. The companies use this information to decide which ads are best for you. Two people can go to the same website, but they will see different ads. For example, someone who likes sports could see ads for trainers, and someone who likes films might see ads for a film.
Your personal information could also be sold. Some companies collect information just so they can sell it to other businesses. A business that collects and sells personal information is called a data broker. When data brokers sell your information, a lot of different companies will know your online habits. Then the companies will advertise products or other websites to you.
Another way your personal information can be collected is through social media. When your information is on social media, a lot of people can see it. Even if you don’t use social media, a friend might post a picture or video of you with your name on it. Pictures and videos can be shared for free on social media, which is one of the great advantages. However that same act of sharing could be a problem for your own security(安全). If someone knows too much about you, they steal your identity. Then they can buy things online and post messages while pretending (假装) to be you.
The law is finally changing when it comes to technology. In the European Union, for example, they have introduced the General Data Protection Regulation(GDPR). This rule means that internet users can now ask companies to show them what information they have about them and even make them delete it. If other countries do the same, the internet could soon be a much safer place.
