ourselves safe. Also，we should eat healthily and safely, it’s harmful to eat too much junk food . Don’t eat food that goes bad . Don’t risk your lives to swim in the river or lake in summer. we must remember it’s dangerous for teenagers to swim in these places.

All in all， keeping safe must come first ！
