I took a trip to Shanghai with my mother during the seven-day holiday. It     1     us more than two hours to drive to Shanghai from my home in Haimen. Shanghai is a busy and large city. Its population is over 24     2    . That’s larger     3     the population of many other cities in China.

On the first day, I just     4     in the hotel and rested. On the     5     day my mother and I went to Nanjing Road. It is the busiest street in Shanghai. When we got there, there were lots of people. We walked from one shop to     6    . I bought two T- shirts and two     7     of trousers for the coming summer. The T-shirts and trousers I bought are all white because white is my     8     colour. My mother also bought some clothes. On the third day, my mother took me to Shanghai Disney Resort. It was full of people. I took many photos there. I had a good     9    .

For the other days, I went to some other interesting places, such as the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, the Huangpu River and the Shanghai International Convention Centre. I didn’t forget to     10     my homework in the evening. I had a full and happy holiday.

How’s it going? I’m very     1     to know that you’re coming to Beijing for your vacation. Now let me tell you something     2     Beijing. Beijing is a city with a long history, and it is also the capital of China. There are lots of interesting     3     here. You can visit the Great Wall, the Palace Museum, Tian’anmen Square and many     4     places of interest. People here are very friendly. They’re always ready(准备好的) to help people in     5    . You can also taste     6     kinds of foods here. They are     7     delicious that you’ll never forget. I don’t think     8     is the best time to come in August because it’s very hot here. You can come in September     9     October. The weather(天气) is usually sunny and cool at that time.

I hope you have     10     good time in Beijing.

Yours,

Wang Fang

Hawaii is a magic name to travel lovers. People from all over the world look forward to     1     (visit) the beautiful islands in the middle of the sea. It’s one of their dreams to watch the sun going down. The sun looks     2     a ball of bright fire(火). It drops into the sea     3     (quick) and you can even see it move.

About two thousand years ago, the first people going to Hawaii     4     a very small boat.     5     they got there, they found the beautiful white sand beaches and the waving trees. There     6     (be) no hotels. It was not easy for people to arrive in Hawaii at that time,     7    . Now people can get to Hawaii by plane or ship. More and more people go to Hawaii, so there are more nice and big hotels now. It seems it has changed a lot,     8     there is no change in Hawaii’s scenery（自然风景）.     9     beaches and trees are still there. In the morning, people enjoy going for a walk along the sea.

Good afternoon. Welcome to England. We hope that your visit     1     (be) a pleasant one. Today I’d like     2     (tell) you something about a few of our laws (法律).

The first one is about     3     (drink). You may not buy wine (酒) in this country if you are under 18 years old, nor may your     4     (friend) buy it for you.

The     5     (two) one, noise. Enjoy     6     (you), but don’t make unnecessary noise, especially at night. Respect (尊重) other people that may wish you to be quiet.

The third one, crossing the road. Be     7     (care). The traffic moves on the left side of the road in this county. Use the crosswalk and don’t take any chances when     8     (cross) the road.

Finally, smoking. It is against the law to buy cigarettes (香烟) if you are less than 16 years of age. I’d like to finish by     9     (say) that if you need any kind of help, you should get in touch with the police. They will be very glad     10     (help) you.

Now, are there any questions?
