SAFETY FIRST IN THE CITY
城市里安全第一

Stop! Look! Listen! Did you even see those words on a sign at a railroad crossing? They are good words to remember in these days of swift automobiles, street cars, and trains. You may sometime have to do a dangerous thing, but to put yourself carelessly in the way of danger is foolishness, not bravery. Our country needs strong and healthy boys and girls. Be careful!
停！看！听！你在铁道十字路口的路标上看到过这些词吗？在有了快速的汽车、电车和火车的日子里，需要记住这些对我们有好处的词。有时，你可能不得不做一件危险的事情，但是粗心地将自己置于危险之中是愚蠢行为，而不是勇敢之举。我们国家需要的是强壮健康的男孩和女孩。所以请小心！
WHAT IS TRAFFIC?
什么是交通？
After a happy ride of three hours, George Benton reached the city for his first visit.
经过三个小时的愉快旅行后，乔治·本顿第一次来到城市。
As he stepped off the train in the midst of the hurrying crowd, he looked about for his Uncle Robert and Cousin Arthur. Suddenly he saw them on another platform.
乔治随着匆忙的人群下了火车后，就四处寻找他的叔叔罗伯特和堂弟亚瑟。突然，乔治看到他们在另一个站台上。
"Hello, Arthur!" shouted George, starting to run across the two tracks that were between him and his relatives.
“你好，亚瑟！”乔治喊道，他开始跑起来，想越过他和家人之间的两道铁轨。
"Hold on there, George!" cried his uncle.
“站在那里不要动，乔治！”他的叔叔叫道。
"Don't cross those tracks. There's an engine coming. Just walk straight ahead to the gate, and we'll meet you there. We got on the wrong platform."
“不要穿过这些铁轨。有个火车头开过来了。你往前直接走到门口，我们在那里会合。我们上错站台了。”
A few minutes later, George joined his uncle and cousin at the gate.
几分钟后，乔治在门口见到了他的叔叔和堂弟。
