Dear editor (编辑) ,
I live in a beautiful city . Many visitors come to my city . there are so many colorful peacocks (孔雀) here .
The peacocks mostly live on the grass land of Dongfeng Square
They are given food freely by visitors . They usually throw food to them , and don’ think about at all whether the food is right or not . Some of the peacocks became ill , some even died after eating the bad food given by the visitors.
I’m sure most of the visitors who throw food to the peacocks really like the birds , but don’t realize (意识到) that they may be doing them harm (伤害).
The visitors should be told that what have done is very harmful to the birds , and this kind of thing must be stopped from happening .
Perhaps we can build some small shops beside Dongfeng Square to sell peacock food . For us every person , it’s our ty to give more love to these beautiful birds and to look after them carefully.
Yours,
Sun Yan

We know mosquitoes very well. Mosquitoes fly everywhere. They can be found almost all over the world, and there are more than 2,500 kinds of them.
No one likes the mosquito. But the mosquito may decide if she loves you. She? Yes, she. The male mosquito doesn’t bite! Only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs. She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite. If she likes what she finds, she bites. But if she doesn’t like your blood, she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood. Next time a mosquito bites you, just remember you are chosen. You’re different from the others!
If the mosquito likes you, she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites, you will have an itch(痒) on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. When the itch begins, she has flown away.
And then what happens? Well, after her delicious dinner, the mosquito feels tired. She wants to find a place to have a good rest. There, in a tree or on a wall, she begins to lay eggs, hundreds of eggs.

Do you know why different animals or pests(昆虫) have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops(庄稼). When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest (收获)time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the trees.
Have you ever found an even more strange act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid(液体) when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over(散开), its enemies(敌人) cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.
( )56.From the passage we learn that locusts________.
A. are small animals
B. are easily found by birds
C. are dangerous to their enemies
D. change their colours to protect themselves
( )57.How can pests with different colours from plants keep out of danger?
A. They run away quickly.
B. They have the colours much like their enemies.
C. They hide themselves by day and appear at night.
D. They have to move quietly.
( )58.Bears and lions can keep safe because________.
A. they have the colours much like the trees
B. they move quietly
C. they like brown and grey colours
D. they live in forests
( )59.Why can the kind of fish live up to now?
A. Because it is very big and strong.
Because the liquid it sends out can help it escape from its enemies.
B. Because the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies.
C. Because it swims faster than any other fish.

1.p6 UNIT 1 3a:In ten years,I think I"ll be a reporter.I"ll live inShanghai, 十年后,我想我会成为一名记者。我将住在上海。因为去年我去了上海,并爱上了这座城市。上海真的是座漂亮的城市。作为一名记者,我想我会遇到很多有趣的人。我想我会和自己最好的朋友住在一套公寓里,因为我不愿意独居。我会养宠物,但是我现在不能养,因为我妈妈讨厌宠物,况且公寓太小。所以十年后,我会拥有许多不同的宠物。我可能甚至养一只鹦鹉!我也许每天去溜冰和游泳。工作日里,我每天打扮精干或许会着一身西装。逢到周末,我穿得更休闲些。我想我会去香港度假,甚至有一天我会去澳大利亚游览。 1.p8 UNIT 1 3a:Do you think you will have your own robot? 你认为你将会有属于自己的机器人么? 在一些科幻电影里,未来的人们都拥有自己的机器人。这些机器人就像人类一样。他们帮助人们做家务和大多数令人感到厌烦的工作。 一些科学家相信将来会有这样的机器人。然而,他们认为这需要花几百年的时间才能成为现实。科学家们正在试图研制看似人类且能和我们作相同工作的机器人。一些日本的公司已经制造出能走路和跳舞的机器人。这种机器人看起来非常有趣。 但是研究机器人的科学家詹姆斯怀特并不认同这类观点。他认为要让机器人和人类做一样的事情是非常困难的。比如说,对一个孩子来说要醒来并知道自己身处何处是很简单的。怀特认为机器人不能做到这一点。但是其他的科学家并不赞成。他们认为在未来的25到30年间,机器人就能和人类谈话。 研究机器人的科学家们不只是在试图让机器人外观接近人类。比如说,现在已经有能在工厂工作的机器人了。这些机器人看起来就像巨大的胳膊。他们能一遍又一遍重复简单的工作。人类不喜欢做这类工作而且容易对此感到厌烦。但机器人永远不会厌倦。 在未来,将到处都有更多的机器人,而人类要做的工作就更少了。新的机器人会有很多不同的形状。一些看起来像人类,有些可能像蛇。在发生地震后,一种蛇形机器人能够帮助寻找建筑下埋着的人。这在现在看来还不可实现,但在一百年之前,电脑,太空火箭甚至电动牙刷也被视作不可能的存在的。我们永远都不能了解未来会发生什么! 2. p14 UNIT 2 3a: Dear Mary, I have a problem, and I need your help. 亲爱的玛丽: 我有一个问题,我需要你的帮助。我以前经常以为我在学校里十分受欢迎。但是我才发现我的朋友们在为我的一位最要好的朋友准备生日派对,可是他们没有邀请我,除了我,我们班的其他人都受到了邀请。我不知道为什么。我并不知道我哪里做错了。我感到很沮丧却也不知道应该去做什么。你是怎么想的?你能帮我吗? 孤单的孩子 2. p16 UNIT 2 3a: Maybe you should learn to relax! 也许,你应该学会放松! Cathy Taylor三个孩子的生活十分繁忙。他们的学校生活就足够繁忙。尽管在放学后,Cathy把两个男孩从足球班带到篮球班。然后,她不得不把她的女儿带去学钢琴。疲倦的孩子直到下午七点才能回家。他们迅速的吃一顿晚餐,然后他们就开始做家庭作业。 Taylors像许多美国和英国的父母一样。他们把他们的孩子从一个活动带到另一个活动,并试图经可能的适应到他们的孩子的生活。医生说许多孩子有非常多的压力。而教师在教室中抱怨教学疲倦的孩子。 大多数孩子参加课外的辅导班。活动包括体育运动,语言学问,音乐,和数学类别。固执的家长没有什么新的东西,但是父母们现在似乎把他们的孩子推到更多的辅导班中去。父母看见其它做许多事情的孩子,而他们感到他们自己孩子应该做同样。 Linda Miller,在伦敦三的一名母亲,知道有关全部这样pressure."In一些家庭,当他们十分年轻时,从十分年轻age,"she says."Mothers的竞争星把他们的孩子派遣到各种课。同时,他们总把他们与其它孩子比较。它是疯狂的。人们不应该如此努力`推他们的孩子”。 绿色的博士Alice同意。她也说当他们是older."Parents时,这些孩子可能发现为了他们自己想是困难的试图为了他们计划他们的孩子的生活。当这些孩子是成年人时,他们可能发现计划事情是困难的因为themselves."Parents应该学习给把他们的孩子有一点更多时间他们自己。一方面,孩子需要组织活动。另一方面,他们也需要时间和自由放松,而他们需要时间靠自己做事情。 3. p20 UNIT3 3a:Dear Jack, i had a very unusual experience on Sunday. 亲爱的杰克: 我有一个非常不寻常的经历在周日.大约在上午10点,我正在街上走,一架UFO着陆在我的前面.你可以想象这是多么的奇怪!一个外星人走出来,然后沿着中心街走.我跟着它想看看它要去哪,我很惊奇当它走进一个礼品店.当它正在看礼品的时候,店里的售货员给警察打电话.在警察到之前,那个外星人已经离开商店去参观航天博物馆了.当那个外星人在博物馆的时候,我给电视台打了电话.那太令人惊奇了! 3. p22 UNIT3 3a: Linda loves her dog Davy.They went to New York City last Saturday.While Linda was buying a newspaper at the train station,the dog got out of his box and ran away.The station was crowded and Linda couldn't see Davy anywhere.When Linda shouted his name,some people looked at her but Davy didn't come.Then she called the police. 琳达很喜欢她的狗狗戴维。上周六她们一起去纽约。当琳达在火车站买报纸的时候,她的狗狗从盒子里跑开了。火车站很喧闹,琳达怎么找也找不到戴维。琳达大声叫着狗狗的名字,人们纷纷看着她,并帮他一起找,但狗狗并没有出现。琳达就报了警。 就在琳达打电话的时候,戴维在火车站外遇见了另一条狗。当警察来的时候,琳达还在找她的狗并大喊他的名字,最后一个小男孩问他,你有没去火车站外找找?我刚才进站的时候看到一条黑色的大狗。” 琳达终于见到了戴维,他正和另外那条狗追逐嬉戏。有一个警察局在他们旁边。警察对琳达说:“我想,是我的狗找到了您的狗。 3. p24 UNIT 3 3a: Do you remember what you were doing ? 你是否记得你当时在干什么呢? 人们总能够回忆起当一个在历史上一 重大影响事件发生时自己在干些什么。例如,在美国很多同时代的人能够清楚的回想起自己在1968年4月4日--一个在 美国现代历史上举足轻重的日子在做什么,在这个灰暗的日子里,马丁路德.金博士在孟菲斯市遇刺。也许人们会不记得谁杀了马丁博士,他们知道自己当时在干什么。 就是一些日常生活事件也会被显得很重要,罗伯特.阿伦先已年过40,当他听见这个噩耗的时候他还是个学生,“那是个一望无垠,阳光灿烂的日子”他回忆道:“铃响时我们正在操场嬉戏,我们老师要我们停止玩耍,他哽咽道,马丁博士10分钟前已经永远离开我们了,我们都不敢相信这是真的 ”放学后他 和其他同学一言不发的 一起回家。 马丁博士的死讯一晃30年已过,那个时候还有很多当代人尚未出生。但是,在更近的时候,大部分美国人清楚的知道他们当时在干什么当纽约世界贸易中心被恐怖分子摧毁的时候。甚至这个日期--2001.9.11在许多美国人心中也占有重要的地位。 并不是所以的历史大事是糟糕的,许多美国人依然记得自己在1969.6.20人类第一次涉足月球的时刻做什么。远的不说,就看前几年。无数中国人记得他们当时在做什么当中国小伙杨利伟成为神州第一个宇航员。杨在2003.10.15升空,在绕地22个小时后返回。当他回到母亲的怀抱的时候,他已被人们视为 民族英雄,同时名扬全球!! 4. p30 UNIT 4 3a: 近来一切可好?但愿爷爷现在康复了。听到他上周感冒了我很遗憾。希望你们的身体都健健康康的。这儿一切都好。我上周参加期末考,今天已经拿到成绩报告单。 在邮箱里看到学校发过来的信件时,我总是觉得好紧张。幸好这次我干得还算不错。这学期的自然科学课程对我来说确实很难,所以,这一门课的老师给了我所有学科里最差的评价我一点也不吃惊。 自然科学的老师说我很懒,但这不是真的。我真的觉得自然科学很难学。另外,我的历史考得也不好。我的历史老师说我可以考得更好的。好消息来了,数学老师说我很勤奋,西班牙语老师说我的听力很好。 好了,这些就是我想告诉你们的所有消息。老爸老妈让我向你们问好。 4. p31 UNIT 4 3a: My best friend is Xiao Li, 我最好的朋友是小李,但是上周在学校我们大吵了一架,她不跟我说话。这都开始于她问我她是否可以抄我的作业。我问她为什么要这么做,她说因为她忘了做。我说我觉得她抄我的作业不是个好主意。她问我为什么我觉得这不是个好主意。我说这是一个坏习惯的开始,她应该自己做作业。她对我发火,说她不想再做最好的朋友。我说好,我确定她可以克服这个困难,并且她确实做到了。昨天她告诉我她对她发火表示抱歉。她说如果她自己做作业会好得多。 4. p32 UNIT 4 3a: She said helping others changed her life. 她说帮助别人改变了她的生活。 在甘肃省的一个贫穷的山村教中学生对你来说可能听上去没有什么乐趣。不过,它改变了来自北京的杨蕾的生活。北京大学毕业生首先作为在一个一年计划中的志愿者去那里。这项活动是由教育部和中国少先队发起的。每年他们派100位志愿者到中国的农村地区去任教。 山中的生活是杨蕾的一次新的经历。她的村庄海拔是2,000米,起初稀薄的空气使她觉得不舒服。食品非常简单——教师一天3次都是吃粥。幸好,杨蕾的母亲支持她。她说她和她的丈夫认为这是一种好的想法。“今天的年轻人有必要经历不同的事情。”她说。 大多数小学生住在学校宿舍里。他们学习很刻苦。他们早晨5点起床一直学到晚上11点。他们喜欢志愿教师到他们那里去。“你和他们之间没有差别,”杨蕾说,“他们说我们看起来就像他们的大哥哥大姐姐,并且他们感到很幸运。” 一些学生可能不能上高中或者大学。家庭贫穷,通常也没有钱来接受教育。“我对此无能为力,”杨蕾说,“但是我能让我的学生开扩眼界,并且给他们一个生活的好起点”,她说她喜欢给孩子们的一生留下好的影响。 杨蕾很享受她作为一位志愿者的日子。一年的志愿生活结束时,她说在完成她的研究之后,她将返回该地区。她现在是甘肃省平凉市某高中的一名数学教师。 5. p38 UNIT 5 3a:If I become an athlete, will I be happy? 如果成为了运动员,你会快乐吗? 对于许多年轻人来说,成为一个专业的运动员,你就可能创造一种能做自己喜欢的事情的生活。如果你变得有名,世界上的人们都可以认识你。许多运动员给学校和慈善机构捐款,并做着帮助他们的很多工作。这是一个许多人都没有的伟大机遇。 然而,专业运动员也会有许多问题。如果你出名了,人们会一直注意着你并跟从你到处走。这会让生活变麻烦(困难)! 如果你为了生存而运动,你的工作有时是非常危险的。许多专业运动员都受过伤。如果你变富有了,你会很难知道谁才是你真正的朋友。事实上,许多名人抱怨他们不开心。他们都说自己在出名和富有之前的生活更快乐! 6. p46 UNIT 6 3a: I am talking to you from the Hilltop School Skating Marathon. 我在山顶马拉松滑雪学校跟你们讲话。在此,学生滑雪是为了为慈善事业筹款。他们每滑一小时,每位学生将为慈善事业捐款10元。现在,马拉松滑雪赛已进行了五个小时。几名选手还在继续滑雪。艾利森是第一个滑雪的,他已经滑了整整五个小时。下一个便是山姆,特已经滑了四个小时。刘宁也已经滑了两小时。李辰一个小时前才开始滑。 6. p48 UNIT 6 3a: Dear Jack: Thanks for sending me the snow globe of the monster. 亲爱的杰克: 谢谢你给我寄来怪兽的雪球,我很喜欢。事实上我觉得它大概是我最喜欢的东西。我收集雪球已经有七年了,我现在有226个。我妈妈告诉我我必须停止,因为我们已经没地方存放它们了。它们遍布在我们寓所的外围,我甚至在我床下的盒子里存放它们。我最先得到的雪球是在我七岁生日那天得到的一个生日蛋糕雪球。我特别喜欢有动物的雪球。我有一个装着许多小熊的大雪球,另一个装着企鹅。如果你知道有谁也在收集雪球,请告诉我吧。我想成立一个雪球收集的俱乐部。顺便问一句:你的爱好是什么? 你的艾伦 6. p50 UNIT 6 : I’ve been studying history in China 我在中国学历史 我的名字叫里奥。我来自澳大利亚,在中国教书已经两年了。我在黑龙江的首府哈尔滨教书。这是一个很有趣,有着五彩历史的城市。这个城市受到一些欧洲国家的影响,在哈尔滨有的古建筑还是俄罗斯风格。自从我来到中国,我学习了很多关于我家的历史。尽管我是澳大利亚人,但我家人是犹太人。所以对我来说学习关于犹太人在哈尔滨是非常有意思的。实际上,第一个犹太人可能是在一千多年前来开封的,并受到宋朝的欢迎。 当我住在澳大利亚的时候,我在学校学习了历史,但我们一般都是学习澳大利亚史或者西方史。然而,当我听到我将要来中国工作的时候,我开始学习中国历史。到现在我已经学了两年了。我在澳大利亚的朋友告诉我说中国历史很难懂,但我不同意。我想如果你很努力的去学,你将学会任何一种文化。像我作为一个外国人,学了越多的中国历史,越觉得生活在中国史一种享受。 尽管我住的地方离北京有些远,但我还是一定会去看08年的奥运会的 7. p56 UNIT 7 3a: I can't stand it! 我不能忍受它 当售货员在接一个很长的电话时,我不喜欢排队等着。如果这种事情发生了,我经常会说,“你介意帮我一下嘛?我也不喜欢售货员跟着我到处转悠。然后我会说,"请你不要跟着我好吗?如果我需要你,我会叫你."通常,售货员会说他们感到很抱歉,但是有时候他们会很生气。如果这样事情发生,我就再也不会光顾那家店。 当我在阅读时有人和我说话,我会感到恼火。这在学校图书馆里一直发生在我头上。当这种事发生时,出于礼貌我往往会跟那个人说话。但因为我很礼貌,人们不知道我很恼火。所以他们会再次做同样的事。也许将来我该试着不表现得那么礼貌。 7. p58 UNIT 7 : Would you mind keeping your voice down? 说话声音小一点,好吗? 如果你在任何时候到说英语的国家,你可能听到这个词语“礼节”。它指的是正常礼貌的社交行为。起初,这似乎像个很难的词,但理解起来会很有用。 礼节在每一种文化或每一个场合并不总是一样的。例如,在一些亚洲国家与你正交谈的人近距离站着是很平常的。不过如果你在欧洲这样做,有一些人会感觉不舒服。甚至在中国,大家都知道在各种场合下礼节并不总是一样的。也许我们认为在自己家里大声说话很好,但在有些地方,大声交谈是不被人接受的。例如,大多数人同意在图书馆、博物馆或是影院大声交谈是不礼貌的。即使你和朋友在一起,在公共场所最好是压低声音。事实上,如果可能,我们应当注意不要在公共场所大声咳嗽和打喷嚏。 如果我们看见有人违反了礼节的规定,我们可以礼貌的提醒一下他们。也许最礼貌的方法之一是去问某人,你介意做这件事吗或您介意不做那件事吧。例如,如果有人在你前面插队,你可以问他们,对不起,请您排队好吗?如果有人在公共汽车上吸烟,我们可以问,对不起,请您把烟掐灭好吗?人们通常不喜欢被批评,因此我们得注意我们应该怎么做。 尽管礼节的规则市场会不同,但有些规则几乎全世界都一样!例如,乱扔垃圾是不允许的。如果你看见有人这样做,甚至在外国,你可以问他们把垃圾捡起来好吗? 8. p64 UNIT 8 3a: The trendiest kind of pet these days is the pot-bellied pig. 时下最流行的宠物是大肚猪。伦敦北部的David Smith 有一只名叫Connie的大肚猪。“大肚猪是最好的宠物,”David说:“她每晚都在沙发上和我一起看电视。她是我最好的朋友。”无论如何,和猪在一起的生活并不总是完美的。“我刚把她抱回来时,她很小,”David说:“但她吃得很多。现在她大得不能在屋里睡了,所以我给她做了个特制的猪窝。猪也需要许多爱。有时我没有足够的时间陪她。” 8. p65 UNIT 8 : Everyone likes gifts.Some little kids think they don't get enough gifts. 每个人都喜欢礼物。有些孩子觉得他们没得到足够的礼物。一些老人觉得他们收到的礼物太多了。不同的人喜欢不同种类的礼物。有些礼物永远不嫌小。一个小孩可能会给妈妈一片树上的叶子。这足够令妈妈高兴了。 在不同国家,送礼方式是不同的。人们有时会送特殊的礼物,但是未拆封的。之后,这礼物可能会被送给其他人。很多人有足够的东西而且自己不想收太多的礼物。在加拿大,许多人不会把贵重礼品送给别人。他们会买下一把公园的长椅或一棵树来纪念某个人。在美国,一些人叫他们的家人和朋友给慈善机构捐款而不是买礼物给他们。在瑞典,为某人做一件事是最好的礼物。人们不需要花很多钱。作为替代,请吃一顿饭就够了。 8. p66 UNIT 8 READ:WHY DON'T YOU LEARN TO SING ENGLISH SONGS的全文翻译 中国将主办2008年奥运会,所有中国人想通过各种途径提高英语水平。例如,24位青年歌手从中国各地汇集到一起进行英文流行歌曲演唱赛,一些歌手能够唱得和英语母语歌手一样好。 歌手真的来自中国不同年龄不同地方。男声组冠军是一位40岁的西安人,女声组冠军是一位19岁的大连姑娘。两人都很谦虚,认为他们并不比其他人好多少。女声组冠军江梅说学习英语帮她获得了奖金。6个月前,她觉得她的英语不太好,因此她必须努力学习。英语演唱赛使得她对于学习英语更有兴趣了。 这样的比赛鼓励中国人学习英语。”中国人应该试着更多的说英语,我们应该在奥林匹克到来前得到提高“ 奥委会的一位发言人这样说道。他认为以娱乐的方式学习英语是一个好主意。 你听过“北京说英语”节目吗?如果没有,为什么不去看看呢?这个节目使北京人学英语更有兴趣。除了唱英语歌曲,还有很多其他有趣的方式学习英语,看看英语电影,读读英文书籍,也许你甚至能交到一个母语是英语的朋友。如果你足够努力,你将找到一条更好的学习英语的方法。 9. p70 UNIT 9 3a: Have you ever been to Disneyland?课文翻译 你去过迪士尼公园么? 我们中的大多数人可能都听说过米老鼠,唐老鸭和其他一些有名的迪士尼人物。我们甚至可以在电影中看到他们。但是你去过迪士尼乐园吗?事实上,现在世界上已有几座不同的迪士尼主题公园了。 迪士尼乐园是个娱乐的公园,但我们也可以叫它“主题公园”。它拥有你在其他公园可以找到的所有的娱乐设施,但是它有一个主题。当然,这个主题就是迪士尼电影和迪士尼人物。比如说,在其他一些公园你可以看到到摩天轮,但是在迪士尼乐园,摩天轮就有了“迪士尼人物”的主题。这意味着你可以在摩天轮的任何地方看到迪士尼人物。同样,你也可以看有关迪士尼的电影,在迪士尼餐厅就餐,买迪士尼礼物。你还随时可以看到迪士尼乐园里来回走动的迪士尼人物! 你听说过“迪士尼航行”吗?那是同样有迪士尼主题的巨大的船。你可以在船上航行几天,还可以在甲板上吃东西睡觉。和迪士尼乐园一样,甲板上也有许多吸引人的地方。你可以购物,参加迪士尼的聚会,和米老鼠一起吃晚餐。这些船有几条不同的航线,但最终都会抵达同样的地方。那就是属于迪士尼乐园的小岛。 在迪士尼乐园的乐趣简直太多了! 9. p72 UNIT 9 3a: Come to the Hilltop Language School and change your life. 来到Hilltop语言学校,改变你的人生! 第一篇:这里是两名同学讲述关于我校的事情 当我还是个小女孩,我就梦想着去旅行,因而我选择了个最佳的方式—从事空中乘务员.我做这个行业已有两年了,它的确是份有趣的工作,我能游遍世界各地,但也我发现说好英语对我来说是件多么重要的事,正因如此早在当空乘之前我就在Hilltop语言学校学习五年了,我以一口流利的口语赢得了这份工作,谢谢, Hilltop语言学校! Mei Shan 第二篇: 我渴望当一名导游,事实上,这是我一直都很想要从事的事业.我渴望旅行,特别是英语国家,像是美国,澳大利亚.不论如何我知道我必须提高我的英语能力,于是我来到Hilltop语言学校进行口语学习, Hilltop语言学校对我的学习有很大的帮助,我已经在这里学满一年了,非常热爱这个地方.或许当我要离开这个学校的时候,我开始想做一名英语教师的热情会大过于想做一名导游! David Feng 9. p74 UNIT 9 3a: Have you ever been to Singapore?翻译! 你去过新加坡吗? 对于很多中国旅游者来说,这个位于东南亚的小岛是个度假的好去处。一方面,超过四分之三的人是中国人,你在大多数时间可以说普通话。另一方面,新加坡是个讲英语的国家,所以那里是你练习英语的好地方。 你曾经在中国以外的地方吃过中国菜吗?可能你会担心在国外你不能找到任何吃的。在新加坡,你能找到很多来自中国的食物;你不难找到米饭、面条或是饺子。然而,如果你够大胆,新加坡是个尝试新食物的好地方。无论你喜欢印度菜还是日本菜,你都可以在新加坡找到。 许多城市都有动物园,但是你在夜里去过动物园吗?新加坡有个夜间动物园叫做"Night Safari"(夜间野生动物园)。在夜晚去可能看起来很奇怪。但你只要白天去过你就可能理解这个动物园的奇特之处。大部分动物只在夜间醒来,所以那时是观看它们的最好时间。如果你在白天去看狮子、老虎或是狐狸,它们可能在睡觉!在夜间野生动物园,你可以在比普通动物园更自然的环境下观看这些动物。 在新加坡,很棒的是一年到头温度都大致相同。这时因为这个岛很靠近赤道。所以你可以选择任何你喜欢的时间去——春夏秋或冬!另外,它离中国并不远! 10. p80 UNIT 10 3a: 1.亲爱的Kim 作为一名新生有时在学校真的很难,但是周六的晚上我渡过了一段美妙的时光。非常感谢你能邀请我参加。有一些女孩子我并不认识,但是她们对我都很友善。还有你放的那段影片真的是太有意思了。现在我感觉我就是你们其中的一员了。 Maria 2.亲爱的Tony 谢谢你上周带我去看学校。在你陪我去那之前我一直找得很辛苦。我很高兴能见到Carlos。他的数学太棒了,不是吗?他对我说他将会帮助我学习数学。朋友们都像你一样使得我更容易的融入到新环境中。 Bill 3.亲爱的Allen 谢谢你下周球赛的门票。很遗憾你和你的父亲不能去,但我真的好高兴能拥有球赛门票。我准备邀请我的堂弟Tommy和我一起去。当黑袜子赢得了比赛我会想起你的。(我希望!) John
