I come from Kitengela, a farming community on the edge(边缘) of Nairobi National Park of Kenya(肯尼亚). Since the age of nine. I have helped to look after my familys cows. As a child, in my free time. I enjoyed playing with electronics. I made my own inventions, such as electronic toys from car parts and other things. I also built other electronic devices(仪器) for my neighbors. At the age of 13, I invented something that changed my life. It also changed the lives of many people in my community. One night, a lion from the park came into my familys farm and killed one of our cows. I was angry. However, killing the lion, I thought, was not the best way to solve the problem. Instead, I decided to invent a solutionThe first idea I got was to use fire, because I thought lions were scared of fire. But I came to realize that that didnt really help, because it was even helping the lions to see through the cowshed (牛棚). So I didnt give up. I continued.And a second idea I got was to use a scarecrow(稻草人). I was trying to trick the lions into thinking that I was standing near the cowshed. But lions are very clever. They will come the first day and they see the scarecrow, and they go back. But the second day, theyll come and they say, this thing is not moving here, it is always here!

Cites like Beijing do not often experience big floods -it was called a once-in-a-hundred-year event-and the people in the cities were unprepared when the disaster came.Climate change seems to be making “unlikely”weather events such as floods more common and it only makes sense to prepare ourselves for when disaster strikes. In the case of floods, just learning to swim wont help you much. The water flows so fast and is so filled with floating debris（碎片）that even Olympic gold medal winner Ye Shiwen would have troubles keeping her head above water.The first thing you should do is to take the warnings of heavy rains or typhoons seriously. You should stay home, listen to the news reports and wait for the waters to subside（回落）. If you live at ground level, move to a higher level. You should also call people to tell them you are safe so that they dont risk their lives searching for you. Its also a good idea to have a “grab”bag (an emergency bag)”ready at home filled with power bars（能量棒）,a flashlight and bottles of water. In a flood , the electricity is often knocked out and drinking water-becomes contaminated（被污染的）.The most important thing is to stay calm and be patient. Its the best way of keeping your head above water.60 . The people in Beijing and Tianjin got prepared when big floods came, didnt they?_.61 . Why would Ye Shiwen even have trouble saving herself if a flood comes?_.62 . Is it important to take the warnings of heavy rains or typhoons seriously or not?_.63 . How can we stop people risking their lives searching for us in a flood?We can stop people by _.64 . What should we put into our “grab bag”?_.65 . What will you do if a flood comes? Tell me your reason(s), please._.九、话题作文66 .
