I especially like the fact that I have easy access(进入) to the Internet. And it’s great that I have Google Maps on my phone, so that when I get lost I can just look up where I am find my way back. But I don’t really ant to say—I depend too much on the phone. That’s the worst part. | |
I love the fact that my mobile phone has the Internet. That’s the best thing about having the Internet everywhere. The worst thing is that people can reach you, especially by calling you. Just send me an email. That would be great. | |
I have a very old phone, so I can’t really do much with it. However, it’s also kind of nice because it makes me be more of a face to face person, instead of always being on my phone. So that’s good. | |
I have one of the simplest mobile phones, which I actually really like because I’m not really tempted(受诱惑的) to be on it all the time. So compared with texting people, talking with people around gives me more pleasure. |

【推荐1】These days, most people in the UK and the US wear informal(非正式的)clothes. But sometimes it is important to wear the right thing.
Many British people don’t think about clothes very much. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres, cinemas and concerts you can put on anything you like:from beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, but you should look clean and tidy. But in the UK, as well as in the US, men in offices usual]y wear suits and ties and women wear dresses or skirts (not trousers).
Doctors and business people always wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants, men have to wear ties and women have to wear tidy dresses.
In many ways, Americans are less formal than British people, but they are more careful with their clothes. At home, or on holiday, most Americans wear informal or sports clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. In good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women have to wear pretty clothes.
It is difficult to say exactly(确切地)what people wear in the UK and the US, because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then do the same. You'll feel good if you don't look too different from everyone else.

These two letters appeared in a newspaper. Both writers have their own ideas on zoos.
Zoos Do a Good Job
It is good to keep animals in zoos. I know a lot of people think it is wrong to keep animals in zoos. However, I believe that zoos have many good points.
Firstly, zoos are places for people to see many different kinds of animals from all over the world. Without zoos, most people would never see a real bear or tiger.
Secondly, zoos look after the animals very well. The animals are always given food and cleaned regularly. In the wild, it is not always possible for an animal to find food, so sometimes it goes hungry. But animals kept in zoos never go hungry.
Thirdly, zoos protect the animals they look after. They offer them safe places to live in. In the wild, some kinds of animals are in danger of being extinct. But zoos give these animals a chance to live. Without zoos, there'd be fewer kinds of animals in the world.
Maria
Smith
Zoos Are Unnatural
In Maria's letter, she says that zoos are good for animals. I am afraid that zoos are not good for animals; they are only good for people.
It is unnatural and unfair to keep wild animals in cages. Most animals are kept in cages that are too small for them. In the wild, these animals would travel freely. In zoos, they can't do this. This is why the bears and tigers always look so sad.
Most cages are not very clean either. It is true that zoos give the animals food regularly, but this is not natural. Wild animals are used to looking for their own food. We should treat animals in the same way that we treat other people--with respect.
Would anyone be happy if you don't let him go outside his home? Would Maria like to have lots of people standing outside her flat looking at her? No, she wouldn't. And animals don't like it either.

【推荐3】Video cameras are everywhere: schools, theaters and stores. But in recent years, they have entered our homes. Many parents set up cameras at home to watch their children’s online classes and homework. Are cameras really helpful? What do students think about it? We invited two students to share their thoughts.
Luo Yuzhe, 15, Gansu
When I was in Junior 2, I liked to lie in bed and watch videos instead of studying. This affected (影响) my studies and made my grades worse. So my parents set up a camera to keep an eye on me.
It worked. With the camera watching, I had to do my homework first and make plans for studying at home. When I was alone at home, the camera made me feel safe because I knew that my parents were watching on the other side. My grades improved after a year.
Zhao Xin, 15, Beijing
Earlier this year, my parents set up a camera in my room. I really didn’t like it because I felt like there were always eyes watching me. I felt so uncomfortable that I couldn’t sleep well at night.
Knowing there was a camera around, when my friends came to my home, they would speak quietly and carefully. We couldn’t have pillow fights. I was sad. So I asked my parents to take the camera away. They agreed it as long as I promised (承诺) to behave well. I feel happy and free now.

Shouldn’t we help each other to do a better job? How can I solve these problems? Li Hua, Chengdu | Dear Li Hua, Parents are always worried about their children. If you must go out on school nights, you should tell them where you go and when to return. Besides, everyone should do their part in keeping the house clean and tidy.

【推荐2】Children are talking about the best ways to protect the environment.
I’m Peter. In daily life, we waste a lot of things such as plastics, paper, etc. You can recycle these wastes instead of throwing them in a dustbin. You can categorize(分类)them into non-recyclable and recyclable products and send recyclable products to a recycling company.
I’m Emily. Buying reusable and used things is a great way to protect the environment. By choosing used products, the number of new products will be cut down and of course, your money will also be saved. Visit local used furniture(家具)and appliance(家用电器)stores to find the things you need.
I’m Linda. Another way to protect the environment is to walk or ride the bike for short trips. If you take a short trip and the weather is nice, why not ride your bike or even walk? It not only helps reduce air pollution but helps you enjoy the fresh air.
I’m Sam. Never forget to turn off the water taps after using. And you can also recycle waste water for other uses like cleaning the bathroom or watering gardens. This is also one of the best ways to protect the environment, so many people need to know and follow it.

Look at the photo of a boy. Do you know who he is? Many Chinese people know him very well now. His name is Lin Hao. He is only nine years old now, but he can save his two partners during the earthquake in Sichuan on May 12, 2008. He carried his two partners with his weak back at that dangerous time. And they got nothing about his parents then. His fourteen-year-old sister took them away and walked seven hours difficultly. At last, they got to Du Jiangyan City safely. He was very calm when he appeared in the picture of the reporter’s cameral. Just as his brave behavior, we are all moved. And he was named “Ten Little Heroes during the Earthquake” by CCTV.
At the same time, another nine children were named “Ten Little Heroes during the Earthquake” by CCTV. Lei Chunian, a 15-year-old child, is a middle school student. He did not run out when the earthquake happened, instead he ran into the classroom and found his seven classmates were sitting at the corner of the classroom. He took them away at once. On the half way, he found there were only six. At that very dangerous time, he ran back to the classroom again. He found a girl crying there because of fearing. He asked her to run away quickly. But she was too afraid to move. So he carried her and ran out of the classroom. A few seconds later, the building fell down and they were all safe.
Let’s remember all these little heroes for ever. They are Ren Dong, Ning Jiaci, Dong Yupei, Liu Li, Tang Fuwen, Kang Jie, Zhou Wen, Yin Quankui and Zhu Hualin.

【推荐2】Nowadays, smart phones are becoming more and more popular among middle school students. But schools don’t allow (允许) students to bring their phones to school. Many people discussed about whether the phones are good for students or not. They have different ideas.
Some think it is good for students. They can look for some useful information for their study on the phone. Then the students can use it as a tool (工具) of study. Also, they can call their parents at any time.
But some people do not think so. They think it is bad for students. Because some students can’t use the phone in the right way. They may use mobile phones to play games and waste much time on it. What’s worse, some students become a phone addict, taking the phone anywhere anytime.
In my opinion, smart phones are good for students. As we know, the 21st century (世纪) is full of information. A smart phone is one of the quickest tools for us to exchange information. It is a fashionable and useful invention (发明). It makes our life more colorful. So we should make the best use of it. And it’s not wrong to follow the fashion, but the most important thing is how to use the smart phone properly. If you can use it in a right way, you will know many things out of classroom.
