Dear Editor,
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
【答案】Dear Editor,
I’m Li Hua,a versatile girl who Is int a bunch of eye-opening activities such as travelling.As volunteer travel,familiar to foreigners,is gaining more and more popularity among Chinese folks, I’d like to share some thoughts on it.
Volunteer travelling presents an once-in –a –lifetime opportunity to work for youth hotels while appreciating the local scenery in leisure time as well as experiencing exotic culture,something you cannot get via atravel agency.Moreover,the free food and accommodation are just too good to ignore,since we all know what a big financial decision it usually is to travel abroad.
To be fair, fantastic as the activity is,it’s not without its flaws.As the saying goes:“There is no such thing as a free lunch.”While we actually “enjoy ”the free meals,we just have to make do with the terrible living conditions of the shabby dormitory and endure the insecurity of living in a completely strange place with no family or friends around.
Now you know the downside of this activity,but I hope it doesn’t give you cold feet.Because life is too short,we should see more of the world when we still can .Carpe diem.
Yours sincere,
Li Hua

【题目】Soft winds blew throughout the Windy City today. We welcomed the winds, as it was another hot day in Chicago. The wind blew, bringing us some coolness—and making the weather not that hot. But it was a beautiful summer day with a blue sky.
Chicago is a great city for eating, and we have enjoyed tasting the different foods. Last night, we tried one of the city’s most famous foods: deep-dish pizza. Chicago claims credit for the rich and cheesy thick-crust pizza, covered with a sweet tomato sauce. We topped it with olives and green peppers.
We were touring the city, mainly looking for delicious local foods. Today, we enjoyed a Polish specialty at lunch: Pierogis, an Eastern European dumpling-like dish, filled with foods like potatoes, cheese, mushrooms, cabbage and meat. Polish immigrants started settling in Chicago in the 1850s, and the city has one of the largest Polish communities in the U.S.
We took a break from exploring the city to talk with some of you! Ashley and Caty logged onto the Internet for an on-the -road version of TALK2US. We spoke to an English teacher in Tokyo, Japan, and a graduate student in India.
Meanwhile, Adam searched for some locations around the city to shoot some video. He chose a spectacular spot: Navy Pier, Chicago’s most-visited attraction. The winds from Lake Michigan keep visitors cool, and the view of the Chicago skyline never fails to impress. In fact, the view made all of us head over heels!
Our time in Chicago has come to an end. Tomorrow, the true journey begins, as we pass through Illinois and into Missouri via Route 66. Springfield, the home of Abe Lincoln, and St. Louis, the “gateway to the West,” wait for us.
【1】Why did the author and her companions like the soft winds?
A. It brought warmth to them.
B. It left the sky blue and beautiful.
C. It improved the quality of the air.
D. It made them feel comfortable.
【2】What did the author and her companions mainly do in Chicago?
A. They enjoyed famous local foods.
B. They visited Polish communities.
C. They studied the history of the city.
D. They explored for foreign customs.
【3】The author and her companions stayed online .
A. sharing their travel plan with strangers
B. asking for information on foreign foods
C. communicating with strangers abroad
D. learning about different cultures in the world
【4】The underlined part “head over heels” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by .
A. bored B. relaxed
C. fascinated D. disappointed

【题目】Fearful parents are saying no to sleep-overs(在别人家里过夜),banning children as old as 15 from using public transport on their own and watching over their kids like hawks(鹰)at the local park,according to a new British study.
The survey of 6,099 people commissioned by LV,a charity that educates children about safety,showed that nearly a quarter of children aged 15 or under were not allowed to sleep at a friend's house,60 percent were forbidden to travel on public transport alone and 43 percent couldn't go to the park without a parent or guardian(监护人).
It said more than 60 percent of mums and dads think the world is more dangerous than when they were kids. "It's difficult for parents to know when is the right time to step back and allow children to experience things on their own,"said one person in the survey.
In contrast,just four percent of today's adults said they were banned from sleeping-over when they were 15 or younger,only two percent were forbidden to use public transport,and the same number couldn't go out on their own in familiar surroundings,such as their local town or park.
“Stranger danger” is the number one worry for over half of all parents (54 percent),followed by bullying(欺侮)(47),mugging (46) and road danger (34).On average,children today can look forward to walking to school on their own by the age of 11,use public transport on their own at 12,and babysit their brother or sister by the time they're 14.
In contrast,parents say they were allowed to walk to school unaccompanied at the age of nine,use public transport alone by the time they were 11,and babysit a brother or sister by the time of their 12th birthday.
Parents know they are being tougher on their children and over a third said they felt uneasy that their kids do not get the same opportunities as they did to experience freedom as a youngster.
【1】Most parents have more control over their children because_______.
A. they love their children more than their parents did in the past
B. they are more protective than their parents were
C. they think the world is more dangerous than it was in the past

A. pay more attention to their safety
B. have less freedom than their parents' generation
C. grow up in a better environment
D. have no ability to ensure their own safety
【3】What would be the best title of the passage?
