Dear Mr. Seaton,Thank you very much for taking me with you on that splendid outing to London. It is the first time that I had seen the Tower or any of the other famous sight. If I'd gone alone,I could have seen nearly as much,because I shouldn't have known my way about.
The weather was splendid on that day,as I thought was rare. I still remember some people told me that in Britain there was weather and no climate. At the same day,it might snow in the morning,rain at the noon,shine in the afternoon and be windy before the night falls. So I think I was lucky.
I think the river trip was the best thing of all. London really came alive to me as we saw it from the Thames during that wonderful journey down Greenwich. It was all tremendous exciting―a day that I shall never forget.
Thank you for giving I such a great birthday treat.
Yours sincerely,Linda Chen

Not long after this,the lion was caught in a hunter's net. The angry lion let out a roar that could be heard far and wide throughout the forest. Even the mouse heard 9 . He knew it was the voice of the lion. He recalled that the lion had been merciful to him then. So he ran to the place where the lion lay 10 (catch) in the net of ropes.

The mouse set to work at once,biting with his sharp little teeth at the heavy ropes that held the lion. Soon the lion was free.

The job of raising children is a tough one. Children don't come with an instruction handbook. And each child is different. So parents sometimes pull their hair out in frustration,not knowing what to do. But in raising children―as in all of life―what we do is influenced by our culture. 1 To Americans,the goal of parents is to help children stand on their own two feet. From infancy (幼年) ，each child may get his or her own room. As children grow,they gain more freedom to make their own choices. Teenagers choose their own forms of entertainment,as well as the friends to share them with. 2 Of course,many young adults still seek their parents' advice and approval for the choices they make. But once they "leave the nest" at around 18 to 21 years old,they want to be on their own,not "tied to their mother's apron strings".
The relationship between parents and children in America is very informal. American parents try to treat their children as individuals―not as extensions (延伸) of themselves. They allow them to realize their own dreams. Americans praise and encourage their children to give them the confidence to succeed. When children become adults,their relationship with their parents becomes more like a friendship among equals. 3 Even as adults,they respect and honor their parents.
Most young couples with children struggle with the issue of childcare. Mothers have traditionally stayed home with their children. In recent years,though,a growing trend is to put preschoolers in a daycare center so Mom can work. Many Americans have strong feelings about which type of arrangement is best. 4 Others insist that mothers are the best caregivers for children. A number of women are now leaving the workforce to become fulltime homemakers.
Being a parent is a tall order. 5 Some people are just deciding not to have children at all,since they're not sure it's worth it. But raising children means training the next generation and preserving our culture. What could be worth more than that?
A. Naturally then,American parents teach their children basic American values.
B. It takes patience,love,wisdom,courage and a good sense of humor to raise children.
C. Some argue that attending a daycare center can be a positive experience for children.
D. When they reach young adulthood,they choose their own careers and marriage partners.
E. Disciplining children is another area that American parents have different opinions about.
F. But contrary to popular belief,most adult Americans don't make their parents pay for
room and board when they come to visit.
G. When parents find out more about their children's school performance,daily activities and attitudes towards life,they can better direct kids towards positive things in life.

Last week our class voted what to do for our class outing：visit the Singapore Zoo or go to the Night Safari (夜间动物园) .Our girls wanted to go to the zoo. And since we were in the minority,we lose to the boys,who all wanted to go to the safari. We got the admission rate for students,which was greatly since I still had enough money to buy a brochure about the park as well as anything at the souvenir shops. The safari was scary but a really fun. As we took the ride through the park's dark jungle,we could see the eye of many creatures looked out at us. Most of the animals there sleep when there is sunlight and waked up at night.
