Thank you very much for your letter. Your trip sounds exciting! I can't wait to hear what Africa is like.

Since my last letter to you, I have had a little adventure of     1     (I) own. Early this month, my mother and I took a     2     (fly) to Dunhuang, in the north-west of China. The desert out there was really quite amazing—I had never seen so much sand in my life! While we were there, we     3     (arrange) with a tour company to ride.     4    (camel). I was very excited because this was the first time I had seen one up     5     (closely). We had hoped that we would get to see some other wildlife on our trip, but sadly we didn't.

Since you are going to the Sahara, I have some advice—be sure     6     (bring) a large hat and a shirt with long sleeves—you'll need these     7     protection. The sun can be so brilliant you'll need to keep covered or you'll get     8    (burn)—my cheeks were red for days after my trip. And another thing, you'll need to keep.     9     good supply of water with you, since it is so dry and hot.

I'm sure you'll have a nice trip. I look forward to     10     (receive) your postcards!

2 . Cycling on Ireland’s West Coast

Don’t worry if you’re not a sporty kind. Our cycling trip is relaxing and easy. The leader drives a car which carries your bags and provides support if needed. But remember you should ride with group members. The group size is usually 9-12.

DAY 1 — The Cliffs of Moher (莫赫悬崖)

Cycling a relaxed 32 km on our first day, we visit Ennistymon, a fine example of an Irish country town with many coloured shop fronts and traditional stone buildings. Then we continue to the seaside towns of Lahinch and Liscannor before we climb to the top of the Cliffs of Moher. These are some of the highest sea cliffs in Europe. The day ends in Doolin, where three pubs (酒吧) play the best Irish music!

DAY 2 — The Burren National Park

Covering 48 km on our second day, the highlight (最精彩的部分) is a wonderful coastal ride with the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the hills of the Burren on the other. On our way we stop at the lovely beach at Fanore. The day ends at Ballyvaughan, a pretty village on the coast, from where we plan to visit the Ceile in Kilfenora — the home of Irish dancing.

10 . Saturday, 22 April, 2017

We are currently on a camp site near Calais, on our way to the UK, and it is pouring with rain. As if gods want to prepare us for the UK at all costs. As if we don't know what rain is... Our ferry to the green isles will leave tomorrow at 10：30 and despite the rain, I am really looking forward to it.

It has taken us a while to get here, as we already left EI Chorro on 4 April. After rushing through Spain in two days, however, we came to an inevitable slow－down when we entered France. Inevitable, as France has simply too much to offer for us, so as soon as we crossed the Pyrenees, our driving sequence became something like driving a few kilometres, visiting a castle, driving a few kilometres, taking pictures of a nice church, driving a few kilometres, having a quick peek at a flea market, driving a few kilometres, visiting a museum etc. When we entered Brittany the real sightseeing started, in Vannes, in Lorient, in Brest and then on to Normandy: Le Mont St Michel, Bayeux and finally, finally the D－Day beaches. I always wanted to visit these, for obvious reasons I would say, but my father, realistic as he was, calculated the chances that it would rain a considerable amount of days of a three－week holiday and always decided against it. But a few days ago I finally stepped onto Gold Beach (where the Brits landed) and I was greeted by the Norman sun. A beautiful day.

1. According to the passage, the Pyrenees must be a place in ________.

A．Spain	B．France
C．Netherland	D．UK

2. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A．They spent 2 days in Spain travelling.

B．The writer thought France has a lot of places to visit.

C．The writer thought the real sightseeing was in EI Chorro and Brest.

D．The writer's father was a realistic person.

3. The passage probably comes from ________.

A．a travel journal	B．a science fiction
C．a news report	D．a film review
