Dear Xiao Li，

My time here in China is going well. I love my new school     1     classmates. Over the October holiday, my parents and I are planning to go to Xi’an to see the Terracotta Army. I’ve heard that it is an    2    (amaze) sight, and I can’t wait to go. To me, the story of the Terracotta Army is almost unbelievable. It’s amazing that there are more than 8,000     3     (statue), and no one in modern times knew about     4     (they) until the1970s.

We’re also planning to visit several other places in Xi’an. My dad and I are both looking forward to    5     (go) to the Shaanxi History Museum, because my dad loves history and I have heard that this museum is known    6    a “Chinese treasure house”！We’re also going to the Xi’an City Wall and a few other famous     7     (sight).

We’re taking the train，    8    (leave)the day before the October holiday begins. We’re arriving at 9:30 a.m. and will start sightseeing right away, so I hope we sleep well on     9    train!

I guess that’s all for now! I’ll write again soon and send photos! Do you have any plans for the     10    (come) holiday? Hope to hear from you soon.

Your friend,

Richard

7 . When we say “break a leg”, we don’t actually want people to break their legs. So, why do we say this interesting phrase in the first place? Have you ever stopped to think about the common phrases we use in everyday conversation? People say things like “knock on wood” and “spill the beans” all the time, along with another common idiom “break a leg”.     1     Read on to get the fascinating details.

Its meaning

    2     It’s typically said to actors before they go on stage for a performance, particularly on opening night. It’s not limited to performers, though.     3    

Here are some examples of how to use it in a sentence:

● “I can’t wait to see you perform tonight — break a leg! ”

● “I hear you have a big presentation at work tomorrow — break a leg.”

Its origin

    4     Performers believed saying “good luck” would actually bring bad luck on stage, so they’d tell one another to “break a leg” instead.     5     Instead of breaking a leg, the performer would put on a perfect performance. It’s believed to have originated in the American theatre scene in the early 20th century. Some believe it was adapted from the German saying “Hals-und Beinbruch,” which means “neck and leg break”. That phrase may also come from the Hebrew blessing “Hatzlakha U-brakha”, which means “success and blessing”.

Now you know the interesting history behind this common idiom. If you’re explaining it to someone else, break a leg!

A．You can say this phrase to anyone.

B．That way, the opposite would happen.

C．Have you ever said “break a leg” before?

D．The phrase means that someone needs help.

E．“Break a leg” is a phrase that means “good luck”.

F．The phrase is believed to be rooted in the theatre community.

G．Why exactly do we say it and where did the phrase even come from?

8 . With the trans-Tasman travel now in place, many of us are dreaming of afternoons watching sunsets fall over New Zealand’s dramatic mountains and lakes. After a long time of lockdown, it’s an appealing prospect. One great way to see the sights without breaking the bank is to rent a camper（野营车）.

“It’s amazing to see the smaller towns and learn about what happens on an orchard（果园）or a farm while staying in my camper, ” says Karen Nisbet, a 38-year-old New Zealander who has spent more than four years on the road.

If you’ve never taken a camper trip before, you might be wondering what it’s like. In New Zealand, you can camp at many places if you have the right vehicle. “To be able to camp better, your vehicle needs to be certified as self-contained, ” says Andy Ford, who runs a business renting campers in Auckland and Christchurch. “That basically means you have a portable toilet, and you’ve got water and food supply on board. ”

“There is something to check before booking, because if you camp outside a campground without the proper certification, you can be fined. Even with a self-contained vehicle, it doesn’t mean you can camp anywhere, ” Mr Ford adds. Many cities and popular tourist destinations like Queenstown often have restrictions, as do areas marked for conservation.

The good news is that it’s easy to find a place to stay. NZ’s Department of Conservation has a website you can use to search for camping sites around the country, or you could use an app.

If you’re camping, it’s important to make sure you deal with your waste properly. Many camp-grounds will have a dump（垃圾场）nearby for convenience, but you may need to plan ahead.
