Conversation Two
M:Do you know what happened to me today? I was so embarrassed.
W:What?
M: Well, Dr. Brown’s class finished 10 minutes early, so I went to the library between classes. I knew I didn’t have much time, but I wanted to get these books on the Industrial Revolution. I looked them up in the card catalogue and went right to the stack and found them. So I put them in my bookbag and headed back towards the door. Then it happened. The exit gate in front of the door wouldn’t open, and the guard immediately warned me that I hadn’t checked out my books. He thought I was trying to steal them.
W:That must’ve been embarrassing. But why didn?t the exit gate open?
M: I asked them that. It seems that the books in the library are all magnetically coded, and when you check them out, the librarian behind the desk demagnetizes them, then the exit gate will open.

Passage One
The first step to stop drug abuse is knowing why people start to use drugs. The reasons people abuse drugs are as different as people are from one to another. But there seems to be one common thread: people seem to take drugs to change the way they feel. They want to feel better or feel happy or to feel nothing. Sometimes, they want to forget or to remember. People often feel better about the roseleaf when they are under the influence of drugs. But the effects don’t last long. Drugs don’t solve problems. They just postpone them. No matter how far drugs may take you, it’s always around trip. After a while, people who miss drugs may feel worse about themselves, and then they may use more drugs. If someone you know is using or abusing drugs, you can help. The most important part you can play is to be there. You can let your friends know that you care. You can listen and try to solve the problem behind your friend’s need to use drugs. Two people together can often solve a problem that seems too big for one person alone. Studies of heavy abusers in the United States show that they felt unloved and unwanted. They didn’t have close friends to talk to. When you or your friends take the time to care for each other, you’re all helping to stop drugs abuse. After all, what is a friend for?
