核心知识
1自从我离开Jenkins先生就再也没有见过他，但是我经常想起他。
I haven’t seen Mr Jenkins since I left school but I often think
about him.
2当时我对学校的大多课程都不擅长，有点懒。现在我真希望我当时能多做些努力，尤其是在数学方面。
I wasn’t good at most school subjects. I was a bit lazy and now I wish I’d done more work, especially in maths.
3他过去常常用许多实际的例子来解释事情，并且把看起来困难的东西简单化。
He used to explain things with lots of practical examples and simplified things that seemed difficult.
4我知道我不是一个学习很主动的学生，我本来学习不应该那么困难，但很可能是因为我对自己缺乏信心。
I know I wasn’t a willing student and I should not have been
so difficult at school, but it was probably
because I lacked confidence in myself.
5他非常聪明，本应该能把其他学科上学得更好。
He was very bright and should have done much better in all
his other subjects.
6我妻子过去常希望我可以选择一个压力小一点的工作，但是我热爱我所做的工作。
My wife often wished that I had chosen a job with less stress
but I love what I do.
7作为一个教师，如果我所做的能把像Graham这样的孩子转变成一个成功的成年人，那我就知道我在做的是值得的。
If what I do as a teacher can help turn a child like Graham into such a successful adult, then I know what I’m doing is worthwhile.
8作一名教师，你可以在孩子们心智顿开，渴望学习时进入他们的思想。
The thing about being a teacher is that you have access to children’s minds when they are open and eager to learn.
9过去，像我这样不能通过高考而进入大学的人是没有机会拿到学位的。
If someone like me had failed to get into university through the college exam, he would have had no chance of getting a degree.
10我拥有的新资质，我在工作上得到了晋升。
Because of my new qualification, I’m getting promoted at work.
11当我的经理告诉我，我将要下岗了，我的脑子木了，心中充满愤怒。
When my manager told me that I would be laid off, my mind
went blank and my heart swelled with anger.
12除了发电子邮件，能在网络眼上看到我在美国的孙辈并与之
交谈也很有意思。
Aside from emailing, it’s fun to see and talk to my grandchildren in the on the i-Cam.
13我决定再给自己一个机会，在保住自己这份稳定的全职工作的同时，利用周末学习得以拿到学位。坦率地讲，过去的四年是很艰苦的，但是值得。
I decided to give myself a second chance by studying a degree on weekends while keeping a secure full-time job. Frankly speaking, the last four years have been hard work, but it’s been worth it!
14人们想去相信那些古老的见解，因为那些观点是由伟大的哲学家亚里士多德提出的，这不足为奇。
It is not surprising that people wanted to believe these ancient views as they had been put forward by the great philosopher Aristotle.
15人们认为，受人尊重的重要人物说什么事情是对的，那它就一定是对的。
People feel that someone important and respected says that something is right, then it must be so.
16从现在到21世纪，全球最富裕最先进的国家的人民会感到难以跟上变化的需要。
Between now and the 21st century, citizens of the world’s ri
chest and most advanced nations will find it more and more difficult to keep up with the demand for change.
17 毫无疑问，信息技术领域的工作职位将会大幅地增加。
Without doubt, the number of jobs in information technology will multiply.

There is no doubt that all this new technology is changing the way we work and offering many other ways of working.
20我问她是如何取得成功的，她说保持好奇心，努力工作并且忠于事实的原则使她有了今天的成功。
I asked her how she had achieved success and she told me that being curious, working hard, and believing in what was true made her the success she is today.
21他对人生的态度一直影响着我的思想和行动。
Her attitude towards life will never stop influencing my thoughts and actions.
22我发现，只要我具有献身精神并决不放弃，就能写出高质量的报道。
I discovered then that as long as I am committed and never
give up I will be able to produce high quality reports.
23你的智商表明你的聪明程度，而你的情商表明你对你的聪明才智的利用程度。
While your IQ tells you how intelligent you are, your EQ tells
you how well you use your intelligence.
24人们往往误认为，智商高的人情商也高。
People are often mistaken in thinking that those with high IQs always have high EQs as well.
25人们广泛相信，情商高的人容易接受新的观念，并且对人生持积极的态度。
It is generally believed that people with high EQs are open to new ideas and have positive attitudes towards life.
26他们不太可能被麻烦所困扰。另一方面，毫无疑问，情商低的人经常在与人相处和处理困难形势时有麻烦。这样，他们在生存问题上更艰辛。
They are also less likely to be troubled by problems. On the
other hand, there is little doubt that people with low EQs often have problems getting on with other people and dealing with
difficult situation; thus they have a harder time surviving in life.
27他们也许跟别的学生分开了。打雷的时候他们没能听到任何
人的声音。
They may have been separated from the other students and couldn’t hear anyone when the thunder started.
28我两个小时后到家才意识到我把书落下了。
It was only when I got home two hours later that I realized I’d forgotten it.
29老实说，我对她比对其他任何人都信任。
To be honest, I trust her more than anyone else.
30我越来越烦躁。当然了，越烦就越难集中精力。
I was getting more and more annoyed and of course, the more upset I got, the less I was able to concentrate.
31我禁不住笑了起来，并邀请她到我的公寓里来喝杯茶。
I couldn’t help laughing at this and I invited her back to my apartment for a quick cup of tea.
32珍妮要不是如此体贴，宽容我的缺点，我就永远不会享受到如此真挚的友谊。
If Jenny hadn’t been a kind person who was willing to forgive my shortcoming, I would never have experienced such true
friendship.
33我不敢相信他们现在已经在山里走失三天了！他们一定吓坏了。
I can’t believe that they have been missing in the mountains for three days now! They must be so frightened.
34现在这么冷。他们一定冻僵了！我希望他们多穿点毛织的夹克衫。
It’s so cold at the moment. They must be freezing! I hope they have more jackets made of wool.
35总之，我认为我的学校会有各种各样的活动。
In conclusion, I think my school would have a good variety of activities.
36我感觉似乎哪里不对。
I felt as if I had something wrong.
37我满是羞愧，并为我的粗鲁行为多次道歉。
I was filled with shame and apologized several times for my rude behaviour.
38研究者发现当正常学生结识残疾学生之后，正常学生后来会更愿意帮助有困难的人。
When normal students were introduced to students with disabilities, they found that, afterwards, the normal students were more willing to help people with difficulties.

The instant she stopped asking questions, I got up and went
out of the room.

This is Science and Technology View of our TV station. We are now on the air with a 45-minute regular program to bring you a big invention – cell phones．
Nowadays you can find a cell phone used here and there．Many people consider it one of the greatest inventions last century．Why? Several reasons for it．First of all, it has changed
our way of life and speed the pace of our work．Also, it is a way to have fun and be cool．
Modern cell phones are more than just phones – they are being used as cameras and radios, and to send e-mail or surf the Internet．New functions are being added to the phones．
It’s believed that cell phones in the future will still play an impo
rtant part in people’s life．They will be much more smarter, and prices will be more competitive．

Ladies and gentlemen,
Nowadays, star-worshiping is popular among teenagers, especially many middle school students. Thousands of fans are on fire for the handsome appearances, beautiful songs and perfect acting skills
of their idols, and they imitate whatever stars do, including their clothes, hair style and hobbies. As a result, some of them forget what they should do and even spoil their study.
In my opinion, having idols is not a bad thing. However, we should make it clear who are the real “heroes”. As far as I am concerned, the real heroes are those who are making the most
contributions to our society, such as teachers, doctors and scientists. As young students, we should learn from them. Only in this way can we become useful men and be real popular stars in the future.
Thanks.

Western holidays such as Christmas, Valentine’s Day and etc. are getting more and more popular in . Some Chinese peopl
e even get crazy on them. But at the same time, people seem to have less enthusiasm for
our traditional festivals such as the Spring Festival and the Moon cake Festival. In fact, most people celebrate western holidays without knowing the meaning behind them. They just go
shopping, hold parties and have fun.
In my opinion, the celebration of western holiday is a good way of learning the western cultures, which helps to promote understanding and communication between Chinese cultures and other cultures. What’s more, the celebration can also make
our life more colorful and interesting. However, we should make great efforts to preserve and enrich our own traditional culture. After all, most of the festivals are passed down from generation to generation.

Newspapers have been popular for a long time, but in recent
years more and more people prefer to get news from the Internet.
Newspapers and websites are similar in several ways. For example, they both aim at providing information to the public. Besides that, advertising is an important way for both of them to
make money.
In spite of the above similar
ities, there are a few differences. Websites update their news
freely. As for newspapers, nothing can be changed once published. So websites offer us the latest news faster than newspapers. Furthermore, newspapers have to be paid for while most websites are free. And it is on the websites that we can express ourselves and exchange ideas with others more easily.
In my opinion, websites and newspaper play their own roles in our lives and they are part of our lives.

Most of us agree that music should be played. As we know, music can produce a lively and happy atmosphere. Besides, music provides us with relaxation after hard study, which reduces the tiredness. Listening to music also makes us feel happy.
On the other hand, some students have the opposite view.
They don't think they can get the expected results by listening to music, as the break between classes is too short. What's needed during the break is peace instead of the noise produced by the music. What’s worse, in class some students are still
lost in the music they have just heard.
Speaking for myself, I stand on the side of the former. Of course, light music is appreciated.

Dear Tom：
In your last e-mail, you showed great interest in our National Stadium —the
Bird’s Nest.
Now I’d like to introduce it to you.
The Bird’s Nest is located on North Fourth Ring Road in , and covers an area of 58,000 square meters, with a seating capacity of about 90 thousand. Its construction was started in December, 2003 and completed in 2007. It looks just like a
bird’s nest made of tree branches. During the Olympic Games, we host the track and field events and soccer matches there. After the Games it has been used for large scale events.
The Bird’s Nest
is thought highly of by officials and experts all over the world.
UN Secretary General Kofi Annan gives the thumbs up to its design and thinks that it will be an incredible symbolism in the
history of the global Games.
I hope that my introduction satisfies you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming

Changes in the Ways People Spent Their Holidays
The ways people spent their holidays have greatly changed recently. In 2002, 35% of people spent their holidays at home. The number dropped greatly to 10% in 2006.
The paragraph shows that the number of people spending their holiday traveling abroad also increased. Compared with 15% in 2002, the rate in 2006 rose to 25%. Because people now have much more money than before, they can afford to travel abroad, and the rate may continue to rise in the near future.
The paragraph also shows that the number of people going to the seaside remained nearly the same, while the number of people who go camping rose from 10% in 2002 to 30% in 2006. Maybe people become tired of the city and want to be close to nature.
8
When people’s life is getting better and better, more and more people choose to spend their holidays abroad. The year 2008 sees a sharp increase in the number of overseas travelers compared with the year 2001, when the number was already mo
re than doubled of the year 1996. It’s a good thing that Chinese tourism is developing very fast. And yet, reports about people’s bad manners flood in. Some are even asked if all Chinese
spit and litter everywhere. The poor behavior has done great
harm to the image of China, which is really shameful.
has long been regarded as a country with good manners. Everybody should keep some do’s and don’ts in their mind to guide their behavior in public, home and abroad. Win respect for
yourself and our country!

Teachers and fellow students,
As we all know, a severe tsunami broke out in the Indian Ocean this time. It’s reported that it hit about 10 countries, causing more than 200,000 deaths and leaving millions of people homeless. Countless houses and schools have been destroyed.
Just imagine how the students there need help! Schools should be rebuilt so that they can return to classes soon. Here the
Student Union calls on everyone to do something for them. We’ll have a voluntary contribution this week. Let’s give away our pocket money. Besides, we’ll organize a bring-and-buy sale Saturday morning. Please bring your books, toys, CDs or something else here to sell. All the money to be collected will be sent to the disaster areas.
That’s all. Thank you.

Boys and girls，
We high school students do have some growing pains, but we can get rid of them correctly and wisely.
First, some of us are upset about their body styles and looks.
It’s unnecessary and it’s not important at all. We needn’t care
about it. It is one’s inner beauty that matters. Second, we sometimes seem to be misunderstood by our teachers, parents and classmates. Facing this, we can find a proper time to have a heart-to-heart talk with them, trying to remove the misunderstanding. Some of us have fewer friends. I think being open-minded and friendly will do you good. Third, we may fall behind others, which makes us stressed. Actually we can encourage ourselves to work efficiently, full of determination. Last, some of us don’t have much pocket money, so they feel unhappy.
Isn’t it strange? So long as we have some, that’s enough. And we can learn to spend money!
That’s all. Thank you.
11 Dear Tom,
It is nice to receive your email. Now I’d like to tell you somethi
ng about the .
Palace Museum is also called the Forbidden City. It took 200,000 workers more than 14 years to build it. The Forbidden
City was finished in 1420. As the largest museum in the world, the holds cultural treasures from the past 5,000 years of Chinese history. The City’s palaces have 9,99 rooms altogether.
Chinese people traditionally have thought of nine as a lucky number. Students from all over can now visit it in groups free of charge every Tuesday. The museum is under reconstruction.
I hope you can come to and take a look at this museum with your own eyes.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Ming

I'm Wang Shan, a girl of sixteen, presently attending Beijing Yangguang Middle. I like music, especially classical music. I’m
also interested in photography because it allows me to record
the beautiful moments in my life. Though my hobbies, I’ve made many friends. In fact, I like meeting new people and enjoy talking with them. Believing we all need help from each other, I appreciate friends’ help, and I am wiling to help anyone in ne
ed. I love life; I love Mother Nature; and I love peace. I hate any form of violence. I would like to join the Peace and Friendship Summer Camp since it would be a great opportunity to make friends with young people from different countries and learn about their cultures.

I will never forget my first teacher, Miss Emily, who has influenced me a lot on my life and career. She was a small, birdlike
woman, her appearance giving the impression of a nervous person. I soon learnt, however, that her true character was calm, warm and kind. She was strict with us as well as in her work and often worked late in her office. I remember on one occasion when nearly everyone in my class has come down with
the flu, Emily managed to keep the class running smoothly without seeming stressed in the least. She treated us as if we had been her own children. Being kind and helpful, she always enjoys helping others out. If she sensed that something had gone wrong, she would call you into her office and encourage you to talk. Not only was she a good listener, but the advice she
offered was always sound as well. I lost contact with Emily after her retirement, but I’ll always remember her as the “guiding light” in my life, the woman, who set us a good example in life and is respected by us all, enabled me to be successful as I
am today. 14
Dear Mr. Smith, I feel excited to learn from the web that volunteers are needed for English Summer Camp for Kids. I am longing for such a job because I love language learning and working with kids as well. Let me introduce myself. My name is Li Hua––17 years old, a bright and cheerful boy in . My classmates have elected me to be class monitor as I get on well with others
and have good communication skills. Right now I am working
as the head of the English Club in our school. Actually I have
some experience in language camps. Last summer I stayed at an English summer camp in . My English is good enough to
deal with such a job. I do wish you could accept me. I can promise you the following three qualities: good patience, high efficiency and strong sense of responsibility. I’m looking forward to hearing from you! With best wishes.

My perfect school
My perfect school would be in the centre of the city. The school would have a big playground so that students could play ball games there. There would also be computers in all the class
rooms. Another thing it would have is a language lab where we could have our English classes. Students would study all the school subjects such as Chinese, math, English, physics and chemistry. There would also be some new optional subjects for students to choose, for example, literary appreciation, astronomy, biochemistry, etc. The teachers there would be mild and kind.
As well as the subjects on the timetable, there would be many after-school interest groups, such as chess, choir, photography and sports. There would be regular trips to places like museums
and art galleries too.
In conclusion, I think my school would have a good variety of
activities — something for everyone.

1自从我离开Jenkins先生就再也没有见过他，但是我经常想起他。
I haven’t seen Mr Jenkins since I left school but I often think about him.
2当时我对学校的大多课程都不擅长，有点懒。现在我真希望我当时能多做些努力，尤其是在
数学方面。
I wasn’t good at most school subjects. I was a bit lazy and now I wish I’d done more work, especially in maths.
3他过去常常用许多实际的例子来解释事情，并且把看起来困难的东西简单化。
He used to explain things with lots of practical examples and simplified things that seemed
difficult.
4我知道我不是一个学习很主动的学生，我本来学习不应该那么困难，但很可能是因为我对自己缺乏信心。
I know I wasn’t a willing student and I should not have been so difficult at school, but it was
probably because I lacked confidence in myself.
5他非常聪明，本应该能把其他学科上学得更好。
He was very bright and should have done much better in all his other subjects.
6我妻子过去常希望我可以选择一个压力小一点的工作，但是我热爱我所做的工作。
My wife often wished that I had chosen a job with less stress but I love what I do.
7作为一个教师，如果我所做的能把像Graham这样的孩子转变成一个成功的成年人，那我就知道我在做的是值得的。
If what I do as a teacher can help turn a child like Graham into such a successful adult, then I know what I’m doing is worthwhile.
8作一名教师，你可以在孩子们心智顿开，渴望学习时进入他们的思想。
The thing about being a teacher is that you have access to children’s minds when they are
open and eager to learn.
9过去，像我这样不能通过高考而进入大学的人是没有机会拿到学位的。
If someone like me had failed to get into university through the college exam, he would have had no chance of getting a degree.
10我拥有的新资质，我在工作上得到了晋升。
Because of my new qualification, I’m getting promoted at work.
11当我的经理告诉我，我将要下岗了，我的脑子木了，心中充满愤怒。
When my manager told me that I would be laid off, my mind went blank and my heart swelled with anger.
12除了发电子邮件，能在网络眼上看到我在美国的孙辈并与之交谈也很有意思。
Aside from emailing, it’s fun to see and talk to my grandchildren in the on the i-Cam.
13我决定再给自己一个机会，在保住自己这份稳定的全职工作的同时，利用周末学习得以拿到学位。坦率地讲，过去的四年是很艰苦的，但是值得。
I decided to give myself a second chance by studying a degree on weekends while keeping a secure full-time job. Frankly speaking, the last four years have been hard work, but it’s been worth it!
14人们想去相信那些古老的见解，因为那些观点是由伟大的哲学家亚里士多德提出的，这不足为奇。
It is not surprising that people wanted to believe these ancient views as they had been put forward by the great philosopher Aristotle.
15人们认为，受人尊重的重要人物说什么事情是对的，那它就一定是对的。
People feel that someone important and respected says that something is right, then it must be so.
16从现在到21世纪，全球最富裕最先进的国家的人民会感到难以跟上变化的需要。
Between now and the 21st century, citizens of the world’s richest and most advanced nations will find it more and more difficult to keep up with the demand for change.
17 毫无疑问，信息技术领域的工作职位将会大幅地增加。
Without doubt, the number of jobs in information technology will multiply.
18公司将会需要那些富有灵活性并且可以独立工作的员工。
Companies will require people who are flexible and can work on their own.
19毫无疑问，这种新科技在改变我们的工作方式，并提供很多其他的工作方式。
There is no doubt that all this new technology is changing the way we work and offering many other ways of working.
20我问她是如何取得成功的，她说保持好奇心，努力工作并且忠于事实的原则使她有了今天的成功。
I asked her how she had achieved success and she told me that being curious, working hard, and believing in what was true made her the success she is today.
21他对人生的态度一直影响着我的思想和行动。
Her attitude towards life will never stop influencing my thoughts and actions.
22我发现，只要我具有献身精神并决不放弃，就能写出高质量的报道。
I discovered then that as long as I am committed and never give up I will be able to produce
high quality reports.
23你的智商表明你的聪明程度，而你的情商表明你对你的聪明才智的利用程度。
While your IQ tells you how intelligent you are, your EQ tells you how well you use your intelligence.
24人们往往误认为，智商高的人情商也高。
People are often mistaken in thinking that those with high IQs always have high EQs as well.
25人们广泛相信，情商高的人容易接受新的观念，并且对人生持积极的态度。
It is generally believed that people with high EQs are open to new ideas and have positive attitudes towards life.
26他们不太可能被麻烦所困扰。另一方面，毫无疑问，情商低的人经常在与人相处和处理困难形势时有麻烦。这样，他们在生存问题上更艰辛。
They are also less likely to be troubled by problems. On the other hand, there is little doubt
that people with low EQs often have problems getting on with other people and dealing with
difficult situation; thus they have a harder time surviving in life.
27他们也许跟别的学生分开了。打雷的时候他们没能听到任何人的声音。
They may have been separated from the other students and couldn’t hear anyone when the thunder started.
28我两个小时后到家才意识到我把书落下了。
It was only when I got home two hours later that I realized I’d forgotten it.
29老实说，我对她比对其他任何人都信任。
To be honest, I trust her more than anyone else.
30我越来越烦躁。当然了，越烦就越难集中精力。
I was getting more and more annoyed and of course, the more upset I got, the less I was able to concentrate.
31我禁不住笑了起来，并邀请她到我的公寓里来喝杯茶。
I couldn’t help laughing at this and I invited her back to my apartment for a quick cup of tea.
32珍妮要不是如此体贴，宽容我的缺点，我就永远不会享受到如此真挚的友谊。
If Jenny hadn’t been a kind person who was willing to forgive my shortcoming, I would neve
r have experienced such true friendship.
33我不敢相信他们现在已经在山里走失三天了！他们一定吓坏了。
I can’t believe that they have been missing in the mountains for three days now! They must be so frightened.
34现在这么冷。他们一定冻僵了！我希望他们多穿点毛织的夹克衫。
It’s so cold at the moment. They must be freezing! I hope they have more jackets made of
wool.
35总之，我认为我的学校会有各种各样的活动。
In conclusion, I think my school would have a good variety of activities.
36我感觉似乎哪里不对。
I felt as if I had something wrong.
37我满是羞愧，并为我的粗鲁行为多次道歉。
I was filled with shame and apologized several times for my rude behaviour.
38研究者发现当正常学生结识残疾学生之后，正常学生后来会更愿意帮助有困难的人。
When normal students were introduced to students with disabilities, they found that, afterwards, the normal students were more willing to help people with difficulties.
39我知道他们是伟大的伴侣，彼此深爱。
I know they are great companions and are devoted to each other.
40. 她一停下来问问题，我就站了起来，走出房间。
The instant she stopped asking questions, I got up and went out of the room.

Modern cell phones are more than just phones – they are being used as cameras and radios,
and to send e-mail or surf the Internet．New functions are being added to the phones．
It’s believed that cell phones in the future will still play an important part in people’s life．They will be much more smarter, and prices will be more competitive．

Ladies and gentlemen,
Nowadays, star-worshiping is popular among teenagers, especially many middle school students. Thousands of fans are on fire for the handsome appearances, beautiful songs and perfect acting skills of their idols, and they imitate whatever stars do, including their clothes, hair style and hobbies. As a result, some of them forget what they should do and even spoil their study.
In my opinion, having idols is not a bad thing. However, we should make it clear who are the
real “heroes”. As far as I am concerned, the real heroes are those who are making the most
contributions to our society, such as teachers, doctors and scientists. As young students, we
should learn from them. Only in this way can we become useful men and be real popular stars in the future.
Thanks.

Western holidays such as Christmas, Valentine’s Day and etc. are getting more and more popular in . Some Chinese people even get crazy on them. But at the same time, people seem to have less enthusiasm for our traditional festivals such as the Spring Festival and the Moon cake Festival. In fact, most people celebrate western holidays without knowing the meaning behind them. They just go shopping, hold parties and have fun.
In my opinion, the celebration of western holiday is a good way of learning the western cultures, which helps to promote understanding and communication between Chinese cultures and other cultures. What’s more, the celebration can also make our life more colorful and interesting. However, we should make great efforts to preserve and enrich our own traditional culture. After all, most of the festivals are passed down from generation to generation.

Newspapers have been popular for a long time, but in recent years more and more people prefer to get news from the Internet.
Newspapers and websites are similar in several ways. For example, they both aim at providi
ng information to the public. Besides that, advertising is an important way for both of them to
make money.
In spite of the above similarities, there are a few differences. Websites update their news freely. As for newspapers, nothing can be changed once published. So websites offer us the latest news faster than newspapers. Furthermore, newspapers have to be paid for while most websites are free. And it is on
the websites that we can express ourselves and exchange ideas with others more easily.
In my opinion, websites and newspaper play their own roles in our lives and they are part of
our lives.

Most of us agree that music should be played. As we know, music can produce a lively and happy atmosphere. Besides, music provides us with relaxation after hard study, which reduces the tiredness. Listening to music also makes us feel happy.
On the other hand, some students have the opposite view. They don't think they can get the expected results by listening to music, as the break between classes is too short. What's needed during the break is peace instead of the noise produced by the music. What’s worse, in class some students are still lost in the music they have just heard.
Speaking for myself, I stand on the side of the former. Of course, light music is appreciated.

Dear Tom：
In your last e-mail, you showed great interest in our National Stadium —the
Bird’s Nest.
Now I’d like to introduce it to you.
The Bird’s Nest is located on North Fourth Ring Road in , and covers an area of 58,000 square meters, with a seating capacity of about 90 thousand. Its construction was started in December, 2003 and completed in 2007. It looks just like a bird’s nest made of tree branches. During the Olympic Games, we host the track and field events and soccer matches there. After the Games it has been used for large scale events.
The Bird’s Nest
is thought highly of by officials and experts all over the world. UN Secretary General Kofi Annan gives the thumbs up to its design and thinks that it will be an incredible symbolism in the h
istory of the global Games.
I hope that my introduction satisfies you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming

Changes in the Ways People Spent Their Holidays
The ways people spent their holidays have greatly changed recently. In 2002, 35% of people
spent their holidays at home. The number dropped greatly to 10% in 2006.
The paragraph shows that the number of people spending their holiday traveling abroad also
increased. Compared with 15% in 2002, the rate in 2006 rose to 25%. Because people now
have much more money than before, they can afford to travel abroad, and the rate may continue to rise in the near future.
The paragraph also shows that the number of people going to the seaside remained nearly the same, while the number of people who go camping rose from 10% in 2002 to 30% in 2006. Maybe people become tired of the city and want to be close to nature.
8
When people’s life is getting better and better, more and more people choose to spend their
holidays abroad. The year 2008 sees a sharp increase in the number of overseas travelers compared with the year 2001, when the number was already more than doubled of the year 1996. It’s a good thing that Chinese tourism is developing very fast. And yet, reports about people’s bad manners flood in. Some are even asked if all Chinese spit and litter everywhere. The poor behavior has done great harm to the image of China, which is really shameful.
has long been regarded as a country with good manners. Everybody should keep some do’s and don’ts in their mind to guide their behavior in public, home and abroad. Win respect for yourself and our country!

Teachers and fellow students,
As we all know, a severe tsunami broke out in the Indian Ocean this time. It’s reported that it
hit about 10 countries, causing more than 200,000 deaths and leaving millions of people homeless. Countless houses and schools have been destroyed. Just imagine how the students there need help! Schools should be rebuilt so that they can return to classes soon. Here the Student Union calls on everyone to do something for them. We’ll have a voluntary contribution this week. Let’s give away our pocket money. Besides, we’ll organize a bring-and-buy sale Saturday morning. Please bring your books, toys, CDs or something else here to sell. All the money to be collected will be sent to the disaster areas.
That’s all. Thank you.

Boys and girls，
We high school students do have some growing pains, but we can get rid of them correctly and wisely.
First, some of us are upset about their body styles and looks. It’s unnecessary and it’s not important at all. We needn’t care about it. It is one’s inner beauty that matters. Second, we sometimes seem to be misunderstood by our teachers, parents and classmates. Facing this, we
can find a proper time to have a heart-to-heart talk with them, trying to remove the misunderstanding. Some of us have fewer friends. I think being open-minded and friendly will do you good. Third, we may fall behind others, which makes us stressed. Actually we can encourage ourselves to work efficiently, full of determination. Last, some of us don’t have much pocket money, so they feel unhappy. Isn’t it strange? So long as we
have some, that’s enough. And we can learn to spend money!
That’s all. Thank you.
11 Dear Tom,
It is nice to receive your email. Now I’d like to tell you something about the .
Palace Museum is also called the Forbidden City. It took 200,000 workers more than 14 years to build it. The Forbidden City was finished in 1420. As the largest museum in the world, the holds cultural treasures from the past 5,000 years of Chinese history. The City’s palaces
have 9,99 rooms altogether. Chinese people traditionally have thought of nine as a lucky number. Students from all over can now visit it in groups free of charge every Tuesday. The museum is under reconstruction.
I hope you can come to and take a look at this museum with your own eyes.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Ming

I'm Wang Shan, a girl of sixteen, presently attending Beijing Yangguang Middle. I like music,
especially classical music. I’m also interested in photography because it allows me to record
the beautiful moments in my life. Though my hobbies, I’ve made many friends. In fact, I like
meeting new people and enjoy talking with them. Believing we all need help from each other, I appreciate friends’ help, and I am wiling to help anyone in need. I love life; I love Mother Nature; and I love peace. I hate any form of violence. I would like to join the Peace and Friendship Summer Camp since it would be a great opportunity to make friends with young people from different countries and learn about their cultures.

I will never forget my first teacher, Miss Emily, who has influenced me a lot on my life and career. She was a small, birdlike woman, her appearance giving the impression of a nervous person. I soon learnt, however, that her true character was calm, warm and kind. She was strict with us as well as in her work and often worked late in her office. I remember on one occasion when nearly everyone in my class has come down with the flu, Emily managed to keep the class running smoothly without seeming stressed in the least. She treated us as if we had
been her own children. Being kind and helpful, she always enjoys helping others out. If she sensed that something had gone wrong, she would call you into her office and encourage you
to talk. Not only was she a good listener, but the advice she offered was always sound as well. I lost contact with Emily after her retirement, but I’ll always remember her as the “guiding
light” in my life, the woman, who set us a good example in life and is respected by us all, enabled me to be successful as I am today. 14
Dear Mr. Smith, I feel excited to learn from the web that volunteers are needed for English
Summer Camp for Kids. I am longing for such a job because I love language learning and working with kids as well. Let me introduce myself. My name is Li Hua––17 years old, a bright and cheerful boy in . My classmates have elected me to be class monitor as I get on well with others and have good communication skills. Right now I am working as the head of the English Club in our school. Actually I have some experience in language camps. Last summer I stayed at an English summer camp in . My English is good enough to deal with such a job. I do wish you could accept me. I can promise you the following three qualities: good patience, high efficiency and strong sense of responsibility. I’m looking forward to hearing from you! With best wishes. Yours,
