Some of the animals and birds in the rainforest, such as monkeys and woodpeckers, live in the treetops.They are always swinging and flying from one
tree to another looking for food among the leaves and branches.They even sleep

Because people are cutting down so many trees in the forests, the animals are
losing their homes.Do you know the reasons for it? Yes, people want wood, paper
and land.As a result many animals and plants are dying.Some forests are so
badly damaged that they become deserts.rainforest 雨林

在英國(guó)學(xué)英語(yǔ)
去年夏天,我來(lái)到英國(guó)。現(xiàn)在我在英國(guó)已經(jīng)待了十一個(gè)月了。我將很快結(jié)束在英國(guó)的學(xué)習(xí),下個(gè)月我就將回中國(guó)了。
一開(kāi)始,我覺(jué)得很難用英語(yǔ)和別人交流。現(xiàn)在我英語(yǔ)說(shuō)得好多了,甚至可以看懂英語(yǔ)電視,這是因?yàn)槲覍W(xué)習(xí)很努力,老師和同學(xué)對(duì)我的幫助也很大?,F(xiàn)在我有許多英國(guó)朋友。一些朋友甚至邀請(qǐng)我去他們家吃飯。他們對(duì)中國(guó)和中國(guó)人很感興趣。每當(dāng)他們問(wèn)我許多問(wèn)題時(shí),我才意識(shí)到自己對(duì)祖國(guó)的了解是如此之少。The Hare and the Tortoise
One day a hare was telling the other animals how fast he could run.“I can beat anyone!”cried he.“Will one of you try a race with me?” “I will,?said the tortoise.”You!?laughed the hare.“Oh, oh, how funny!? ”Save your laughing for the end of the race,?said the tortoise.So a starting line was made, and away they went.The hare ran fast and was
soon far ahead, so he sat down to rest.By the time the tortoise came up, the
hare was sleeping.On and on went the tortoise, and when the hare looked up at last, it was too late.There sat the tortoise by the sign that said: The End.hare 野兔

他們劃了條起跑線,出發(fā)了。兔子跑得飛快,很快就跑到了前面,所以他坐下來(lái)休息。等到烏龜趕上來(lái)時(shí),他睡著了。
烏龜一直往前走,當(dāng)兔子最后醒來(lái)時(shí),已經(jīng)太晚了。烏龜坐在一塊牌子旁,上面寫著: 終點(diǎn)。Helping Parents
Parents often get angry because of their trouble in their lives.Let's say that your mother is not happy about her boss.If she doesn't have other ways
of expressing her emotions, she might come home and yell at you, scream at
your dad, kick at the dog, or even say something mean to you.Here's how to handle it when an adult in your life has trouble controlling his
or her anger: Don't make it worse.Angry people can have trouble thinking
clearly, so try not to do or say anything to make things worse.Wait till your
parent cools off, then talk to him or her in a calm tone, and try to explain how the anger is affecting you.yell 大叫,呼喊
scream 尖聲喊叫

父母常常因?yàn)樗麄兩钪械臒蓝鷼?。我們舉個(gè)例子,比如你媽媽對(duì)她的上司不滿。假如她沒(méi)有其他方法發(fā)泄她的情緒,她就可能回到家沖你大聲嚷嚷,對(duì)你爸爸大喊大叫,踢家里的狗,或者甚至對(duì)你說(shuō)一些難聽(tīng)的話。
當(dāng)你身邊的大人控制不住他們的怒火時(shí),你應(yīng)付的方法是:別讓情況變得更糟糕。生氣的人很難保持思維清晰,所以不要做,也不要說(shuō)任何會(huì)使事情變得更糟的事或話。先等你的父母平靜下來(lái),然后再心平氣和地和他們談,并想辦法說(shuō)明他們的怒火是如何影響你的。

What makes me angry? Mostly, I hate when someone tries to make someone else
feel bad.I have to admit that once, when I was really angry, I actually called names.I regretted doing this afterwards, but not full heartedly because I think I was provoked in that situation.The most positive way of dealing with anger is talking about the problem.I
talk to someone who listens, or I'll write my thoughts down on paper.Learning
how to deal with anger as you're growing up is so important.When you're younger, you might yell, or cry when you're angry, but as you get older,you're expected to handle your emotions much better.Learning to control your emotion now will prevent you from doing something
that you'll regret later on in life!

什么事會(huì)讓我憤怒呢?通常情況下,當(dāng)有人試圖使別人覺(jué)得不舒服時(shí),我會(huì)非常憤怒。我不得不承認(rèn),有一次,在我實(shí)在很生氣的時(shí)候,我確實(shí)罵了人。過(guò)后,我很后悔那么做,但我不認(rèn)為全是我的錯(cuò),因?yàn)槲矣X(jué)得在那種情況下,我是被激怒了。
解決憤怒的最積極的方法是把問(wèn)題說(shuō)出來(lái)。我說(shuō)給愿意聽(tīng)的人,或者把我的想法寫在紙上。在你成長(zhǎng)的過(guò)程中,學(xué)會(huì)處理憤怒是非常重要的。小時(shí)候,你生氣的時(shí)候可以大喊大叫或者哭鬧,但長(zhǎng)大后,你被期望能更好地控制情緒。
現(xiàn)在就學(xué)著控制情緒能讓你避免做一些可能使你以后遺憾一生的事情?!癐 Don’t Have to Eat All the Egg.”

27Visiting Shakespeare’s Home
In 1998, when I was working for an export company, I went to England.After
finishing my business, which took several days, I went to Stratford, where Shakespeare was born.In Stratford, I visited several sites that are associated with Shakespeare, including the house where he was born, the church
where he was buried, and the cottage where his wife's family lived.I wanted
to see a play, so I asked at the theatre box office for whatever tickets were available.I got a seat for The Merchant of Venice, which is my favourite play.Afterwards, I waited at the stage door for my favourite actor, who was
in the play.I got his autograph and talked to him.It is an experience that I

One day a goat started to cross a little bridge.At that very minute, another
goat started out from the other side of the bridge.When they saw one another, they knew that one of them would have to go back.”Go back!?cried the first goat.“Where is no room for you to pass here while I am crossing.” “It is you who must go back!?cried the other goat.”You can start again after
I cross over.?The first goat said as he was in the right and would not give way.“We will see!”cried the other goat, and they started to fight.In another minute, the two goats fell into the water.A man who was fishing saw the fight.He laughed as he pulled the goats out of the water.“You see,?said he.”When everyone thinks he is right, something always goes wrong!"

Do you mind being called a bad student? Of course not.So far as I know, everybody intends to be(become)a model student.However, to be a model student is by no means an easy thing.First, he must do his best to obtain knowledge.A man without sufficient knowledge will not succeed.Secondly, he must remember to improve his health.Only a strong man can do great tasks.Thirdly, he should receive moral education.If his conduct is not good, no one will consider *** friends with him.你價(jià)意被稱為壞學(xué)生嗎?當(dāng)然不。就我所知,每個(gè)人都打算做模范學(xué)生。

There is no doubt that happiness is the most precious thing in the world.Without it, life will be empty and meaningless.If you wish to know how to get happiness, you must pay attention to the following two points.First, health is the secret of happiness(the key to happiness)。Only a strong man can enjoy the pleasure of life.Secondly, happiness consists in contentment.A man who is dissatisfied with his present condition is always in distress.無(wú)疑的歡快是世界上最寶貴的東西。沒(méi)有它,人生將是空虛的而且毫無(wú)意義的。假如你希看知道如何獲得歡快,你須留意下面兩點(diǎn)。
健康是歡快的要訣。唯有身體強(qiáng)壯的人才能享受人生的樂(lè)趣。
歡快在于滿足。一個(gè)不滿于現(xiàn)狀的人終是處在痛苦之中。
As is well known, books teach us to learn life, truth, science and many other useful things.They increase our knowledge, broaden our minds and strengthen our character.In other words, they are our good teachers and wise friends.This is the reason why our parents always encourage us to read more books.Reading is a good thing, but we must pay great attention to the choice of books.It is true that we can derive benefits from good books.However, bad books will do us more harm than good.如眾所周知,書籍教我們學(xué)習(xí)人生,真理,科學(xué)以及其它很多有用的東西。它們?cè)黾游覀兊闹R(shí),擴(kuò)大我們的心胸并加強(qiáng)我們的品格。換句話說(shuō),它們是我們的良師益友。這是為什么我們的父母終是鼓勵(lì)我們要多讀書的理由。
讀書是一好事,但我們必須多加留意書的選擇。不錯(cuò),我們能從好書中獲得益處。然而,壞書卻對(duì)我們有害無(wú)益。

It is the duty of every citizen to make the country rich and powerful(To make the country rich and strong is?)。In order to accomplish this object one must be patriotic(love his country)。I consider this an unchangeable truth.How can a student love his country(be patriotic)? I find my answer very *** and clear.He must study hard and store up knowledge so as to serve his(the)country in the future.If every student can do according to what I said, the country will certainly be rich and powerful.要使國(guó)家富強(qiáng)是每個(gè)公民的責(zé)任。為了達(dá)到此目的,必須愛(ài)國(guó)。我以為這是一條不易的定理。
