Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Lucy, a 20-year-old student from City College. I'm writing to express my wish to work as a volunteer (志愿者) for the 19th Asian Games.
I'm an active and friendly girl from China. I've learned English for 13 years and can speak English well. And I can also speak a little Japanese. I've been to many countries in Asia and know a lot about Asian cultures. So I'm able to communicate with people from all over the world. Besides, I have organized (组织) different kinds of activities both in the middle school and at the college. And I'm also a volunteer in my community. I believe these experiences make me the right person to be a volunteer for the Games.
My telephone number is 14237656789, and my email address is lucy@citycollege. com. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Lucy

One evening, Grandad said, "I once had a friend called Day. His first name was Henry, but everyone called him Happy. Happy Day made a very good living. He had been to many places and when he came to a place that he liked, he opened a pet shop and began selling African Ghost Fish.
"According to Happy, these are the world's only invisible fish, and they're especially good pets because they don't need any food. Once a year, the female Ghost Fish lays eggs. Immediately after that, and if everything is completely quiet, she becomes visible. But in a blink (眨眼) of an eye, she's gone again. If you see her, you're extremely lucky for she's the most beautiful creature alive.
"When Happy told his customers this story, his tanks of fish sold very quickly. When they were completely sold out, Happy usually left for another town. "
"Was that because his customers were not satisfied?" We asked.
"Not at all, "Grandad said. "His customers were completely satisfied. Many people told him that they got great pleasure from their invisible fish. It was so relaxing. A few even claimed that they had seen a female Ghost Fish, and it was truly unforgettable. Yes, Happy was a clever man,"
"Can you tell us some more about him?" We said.
"Not now, "said Grandad. "I'm tired, and I want a nap (打盹) . Why don't you children go and watch the tank of Ghost Fish in my room? Remember, if you sit quietly and watch really closely, you might even see a female. "
As we rushed excitedly from the room, I heard Grandad whisper, "Thank you, Happy."
I wonder what he meant.
AFRTCAN GHOST FISH NOW ON SALE At Happy Day's Shop! ♢The world's only invisible fish. ♢They need food. ♢The female is the most creature alive. She becomes visible after she lays eggs. ♢All customers will be completely satisfied. ♢The fish will live great to you.

A flowchart is used to put events in a certain order. Webs show a main idea and supporting details(细节).
Now try to be a good reader and finish the following TWO tasks.
Task 1: Read Passage I and complete the flowchart.
Passage 1: I spent the whole day with Bob today. In the morning, we went shopping but we bought nothing. In the afternoon, we went to a pet shop. Then we played computer games at home. Bob stayed for dinner with our family. We had great fun. →went to a pet shop→→had dinner |

Passage 2: Students have different opinions about doing housework. Some students think it's good for them to learn to look after themselves. Besides, they can learn to do their part in the family. However, others don't agree. They think they should save the time on housework for learning their lessons.

Extreme Amazon(亚马孙之最)
Twenty percent of all the water that goes into oceans around the world comes from one river—the Amazon.
The Amazon River begins in the Andes Mountains in Peru. It travels about 6000 kilometers to the Atlantic Ocean. It is the largest river in the world. It is also the second longest. Most of the Amazon's water comes from rain. During the rainy season, parts of the river are 190 kilometers wide.
The Amazon River goes through the world's largest rain forest. The Amazon rain forest is home to the highest number of plant and animal species(种类) on Earth. There are 2.5 million kinds of insects, such as the world's largest ant. At least 3,000 kinds, of fish, live there, and one-fifth of all the bird species in the world. Some of the Amazon's animals are dangerous, such as the anaconda, the largest snake in the world. But there are also gentle animals, like the sloth and the pink dolphin.
The Amazon is very important to Earth. There are still many kinds of animals and plants there that we don't know about. If we lose the Amazon, we will lose a big part of life on Earth.

Doing "Clean "Exercise
When you go for a run outside, chances are that you'll find litter all around you. Do you just go past it, or do you stop and pick it up? If you choose the second, you're part of the latest popular sport in the West: plogging.
The word "plogging" is the Swedish phrase" plocka upp"( pick up) and the English word "Jogging"(running slowly)put together.
What a plogger needs is a rubbish bag and a pair of gloves to protect your hands. While collecting rubbish, ploggers learn to classify (分类)and deal with it correctly, too.
Plogging seems simple but it does a lot of good to both the environment and your health. It can not only make the world greener, but also get you full body exercise, For example, a 30-minute logging burns around 288 calories(卡路里), compared to 235 calories burned from just jogging.
So next time you go out jogging, why not carry a rubbish bag and collect some litter along the way? Your body and the environment will thank you.
Let's go ! The latest popular sport! Just need and a pair of gloves! Correctly classify and the rubbish! It's simple but helpful to and your body! Make the world and yourself a lot healthier! Join us now! The world says THANK YOU! |
