People have talked about whether aliens are real or not for thousands of years.Some ancient drawings over 50,000 years ago are thought to be the first pictures of spacecrafts.Alien spacecrafts are often called flying saucers(飞碟).The first person to use this name was an Amerlean,Kenneth Arnold.On 24th June,1947,he was flying a small plane in Washington State in the USA when he saw something strange.“I was looking out of the window,”Arnold said,“when I saw nine saucer-like things in front of me.”

Two other Americans,Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker,said that aliens took them into a flying saucer! They were fishing on the Mississippi River in the USA on the night of 11th October,l973.It was a dark night.The two men were sitting in their fishing boat when they saw a bright light.It was hanging in the air over the water and it looked like a flying saucer and brought Hickson and Parker into their spacecraft.In the spacecraft the aliens looked at the two men very carefully and then took them back to their boat.“The aliens were in a pale colour and had very small eyes.” Hiekson said.“But they didn't hurt us.”

Dear Linda,

I have got your letter. I know that you want to have your own club, but you don’t know how to start one. Do you know what makes a club, such as an English Club or a Basketball Club, successful? Here is some advice.

◆Decide what kind of club to have, and come up with a nice name. Since you are interested in music, why not start a Music Club? A club is to bring people with common interests together.

◆Look for members. You can start with your friends, but it isn’t really a club until people you don’t know want to join.

◆Make rules. Get together with the members and agree on rules. Make sure that if someone breaks any rule(违反规定), he or she should be punished.

◆Have regular meetings. For the first time, you should make sure that all the members attend. Call the members to remind(提醒) them of it, and use the meeting to organize future meetings and other activities. I hope that these ideas may help you and that you can have your own club soon.

Yours,

Mrs. Smith
