Dear Mr. Brown,
Recently I had a discussion about ways of learned English with my classmate
Joe. In his opinion, the best ways to learn English are by reading English newspapers
and talking with friends with English. He believes that watching English films is also
not a good way.
However, I think we can find some English articles read by searching on the
Internet. Also, joining an English club is a great help.
What’s your opinion? Please writing to me.
Best wishes,
Tony

If you want to do a school project on children's rights(权利), you can look on the Internet for some information. A United Nations website can show you plenty of useful information for the project.
The United Nations lists the rights of children. Most countries agree all of them, but some countries do not. The following are some of the most important rights of children:
Children have the right to be properly fed, clothed and sheltered (庇护) by their family. If their family can't do so, the government should take responsibility.
Children have the right to an education and medical care, which should be provided by the government.
Children must not be cruelly punished (惩罚)by their parents or any others.
Children have the right to expect the government to protect them from all kinds of abuse (虐待) and neglect(忽略).
No child under fifteen should be made to fight in an army.
Children have the right to be protected from being made to work too hard to make money for other people.
In some countries children do not have these rights. Many young children are made to work long hours in factories and on farms. In some countries there are so few schools that only rich children get an education. There are not enough doctors or nurses to help many children when they are sick.
The rights of children are, therefore, the rights people think children should have. They are not always the rights children really have.
1. agree with the United Nations' list of children's rights.
A. All countries B. A few countries C. No countries D. Most countries
2.Some children can't get an education because .
A. there aren't enough schools B. there are no schools
C. they come from rich families D. they want to work in factories
3.What's the main idea of this passage?
A. Children are made to work long hours on farms.
B. The United Nations website is useful for the school project.
C. Children have the right to be properly fed, clothed and sheltered.
D. The United Nations has listed the rights it thinks children should have.

They learned to sail before they were 10. The year they turned 11, their parents sent them both to the same boys camp in New Hampshire. There they began to love the overnight trips.
When they were 15, they spent a summer in Quebec camping in an old tent. The year after graduating from college, they drove to Central America and rode a train through jungles.

Late at night, lying in their sleeping bags, they looked up at the cold black sky. They talked about the time they had camped in the past.
