17.Prague
Prague is an ancient European city,featuring one of the most magnificent Old Towns in Europe,along with delicious food,inexpensive shopping and friendly people.Prague is also famous as being home to one of the most famous 20th century writers,Franz Kafka.The famous Czech beer is also one of the reasons to visit Prague.
The narrow streets of the older parts of the town are appealing the visitors to take nice long walk and settle in some of the many restaurants,which offer top-quality foods at a low price.The buildings there are mostly tower-shaped,and so Prague is called"city of a hundred  spires."
Mauritius
Also known as the Paradise on Earth,Mauritius lies about 560miles (900km) east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean.It is a place of magnificent natural beauty coupled with excellent customer service,which makes for an unforgettable romantic experience at the edge of the world's warmest ocean.
There are lots to see and do in Mauritius:the coral reefs (珊瑚礁) surrounding the island offer stunning beauty and great underwater adventures to those who want to dive into the precious waters.The nature of Mauritius mostly resembles that of Paradise,allowing every couple visiting this island to feel like Adam and Eve.That is an experience nobody would want to miss!
Cyprus
The very name Cyprus,it has been said,glitters with an age-old myth.Today,history and hedonism (快乐论) are comfortably mixed on the island.Some five-star resorts within walking distance of well-preserved Greek and Roman ruins offer the convenience the modern traveler has come to expect.
Cyprus features a romantic history,as it was Anthony's gift to his beloved Cleopatra during the glorious days of the Roman Empire.Maybe that is why you feel always a little special once you set foot on Cyprus.

Dear Mr.Green,
I'm very exciting to learn that you will start a magazine together.That sounds great and I definitely agree you on that.
Some of the columns you mention in the letter are really my cup of tea."Cultural Express"give us a better understanding of the world.Since people from different part of the world have different values,it's necessary to learn from each another.Besides,it is pretty good for Chinese students to learn English idioms and improving oral English.
"Entertainment"is also cool!The popular singers,actors or celebrities are so attractively that you absolutely can't miss this part.Teenagers are to fond of popular things,too.
Well,I really can't wait to read this magazine.
Yours,

2.Every country shares things(61)incommon:we value family,cherish health,and celebrate large (62)festivals (festival).Yet within the similar things we share,there are parts unique to each country.One British characteristic that is famous(63)is(be) their sense of humor,particularly self-mockery(自嘲).This is a type of humor that criticizes and undervalues oneself.For example,a fat person may joke:"I'm on a new sea food diet.If I see food,I eat it."This is(64)awell-known self-mockery joke.It's difficult to say why self-mockery(65)is tied(tie) to the British people.But every nation's sense of humor comes from its culture and history.It could come from another British characteristic,modesty,(66)meaning (mean) not talking openly about your skills.This seems to be something that is similar with the Chinese people,(67)where modesty plays a big part in daily life.It also acts as a defense of our self-respect by playing down our skills.This can(68)lessen(less) the chances of people criticizing us.Another possible reason is(69)thaton average,the British people don't take themselves too(70)seriously(serious).So mocking themselves is simply a healthy result of this.
