I went to India two years ago with my parents. It was the best holiday in my life. It took us two weeks to travel around and visited many places of interest.
The night before we left for India, I was so excited that I could not fall asleep. Our plane left at 1:00 p. m. and it took nearly six hours to take a flight to New Delhi.
The next day, we went on a sightseeing tour. I took lots of photos and we all bought some souvenirs at the market. I want to give them to my friends.
On the third day of our trip, we went to a city called Jaipur. At Jaipur, we visited the Palace Museum and rode elephants. I almost fell off from the elephant. I was very scared.
The highlight of our trip was the Taj Mahal. It is a very famous and beautiful place that was built around 1640.
Some people think that all Indian food is spicy, but some dishes are not spicy at all. My favourite dish was chicken korma. It is delicious. It tasted a bit sweet because it is made with coconut. Rice is their main food. We ate it every day, just like at home!
India is so big that it is impossible to go to all the wonderful places in one trip. I hope that I can return again some day.

【推荐2】Everything has both sides, and space travel is the same. Let’s take a look at the main facts about the future space travel.
1. High Cost
How much does it cost for space tourism? It is difficult to say, but the costs are tens of billions. Of course, rich people can spend so much money on space travel, but imagine if this money was spent on more important things, such as poverty, hunger, medicine, etc.
2. Passenger Health
While astronauts take years to prepare for flights, common people will fly with little training. However, heavy work and zero-gravity conditions (零重力条件) are not good for health. 2 According to a recent study, space travel causes more than a third of astronauts to some illnesses. Here, we are, first of all, talking about cardiovascular pathology (心血管疾病). According to WHO, it tops the list of common diseases. In other words, you need to be not only rich but healthy to fly into space.
3. Environmental Impact (影响)
It burns hundreds of tons of fuel (燃料) for a rocket to fly away from the earth. Of course, people are inventing environmentally friendly fuels, but the flying spaceships are still bad for ozone (臭氧层). So the space travel has some impacts on the environment.
However, although there are so many disadvantages, space travelling will be improved someday. Technology development will not be stopped. In another 5 to 10 years, spending a vacation in space could become as common as taking a taxi or a hotel room today.
1. How much does it cost for space tourism?2. Please translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.
3. Tom has a lot of money. And he is tall and looks strong except mild heart disease. Can he travel to the space?
4. 判断正(A)误(B)。
If the rocket burns environmentally friendly fuels, the flying spaceships aren’t bad for space.
5. How soon may space travelling become common?
Being tired of my noisy life in the city, I wanted to breathe some fresh air and experience a new kind of life. So I joined the “Earth care Project”. When I set out, I took nothing with me but some bad emotion(情绪).However, when the trip was over, my backpack was full of things, including joy, sadness, beautiful views and some knowledge about life.
In this exchange project, I was glad that I could get along well with the strange participants(参加者) from other countries. We tried to take care of each other. The group leaders, Paul and Reg, were both nice. They were very knowledgeable about plants, animals and the environment. However, they were completely different from each other-----one was very quiet and the other was very outgoing. They were a really interesting pair.
1 . That was really encouraging. I felt very happy that I had done something useful for the earth with my own hands.
On this trip, I learned to watch and think more about the world around me, rather than just caring about myself. We should be kind to life. We should not only treat human beings well, but also animals, plants and nature. After this trip, I feel that I have become more active and outgoing. I won’t miss another trip like this in the future.

3. Did Paul and Reg have the same completely character?
4. Try to put the underlined sentence into Chinese.

Every year, there’s a talent show in our school. And the theme(主题)of this year’s talent show is dreams. I took part in two competitions this year: dancing and cosplay(角色扮演).
There are six boys in my team and we’re good at street dance. When the music played, we all felt excited. We danced so well that all of the students and teachers cheered(喝彩) for us. Our team did a good job and won first prize. We felt happy and we learned how to work as a team. This is the most important thing we learned from the competition.
The cosplay competition was the most popular part of the talent show. Students could get dressed up as any characters they liked. Although it was our first time to take part in such a competition, we decided to try our best. When we walked on the stage(舞台), we were very nervous. Later, we made a mistake during the competition so we didn’t win. But we will work harder for the next competition.
Everyone should have a dream. So if you want to do something you like, just go for it!

When Friday could talk well, I asked him a thousand questions about his country and the people there. I understood that they were cannibals. “They sometimes came to the island to eat their prisoners,” he said. He also told me that there were seventeen white men like me in his country.
One day Friday and I were standing together on top of a hill in the west part of the island when he suddenly shouted, “ Look, Master, My country!” He was pointing at the land in the distance. There was a big smile on his face.
“Do you want to go back there, Friday?”I asked him.
“Oh, yes!” was his reply, “ Is it far? Can I go there by boat?”
“Yes,” he replied.
I showed him mine.
“Too small,” he said.
So I took him to see my first boat in the woods, which took me months to make but had never been used because of being too far from the water. It was twenty-three years old now and full of holes.
“This boat is good,” he said and then he laughed, “ But it is too old. ”
“We can make another one,” I replied. “Then you can go back to your country. ”
Friday suddenly looked very sad and I saw tears in his eyes.
“Why do you want to send Friday away?” he asked. “Friday doesn’t want to go without Master. ”
“I’m not going to send you away, Friday,” I said,“ I’m going to come with you. Come on! Let’s look for a good tree for our boat!”
There were lots of big trees in the woods, but it was important to find one near the water. I didn’t want to make the same mistake twice! Friday soon found a good one and we cut it down. We worked hard for a month. When our boat was ready, we pulled it into the water. Then I started to make preparations for our journey. We needed to take a lot of food with us.
