Can you imagine a sea of sand three times bigger than India？ This is the Sahara Desert． The largest desert in the world． It covers 1l countries in North Africa and is over 9 million square kilometers．
In the Sahara， temperatures are very different during the day and at night． It is much hotter during the day than at nigh．During the day， the hottest time is between 2 pm and 4 pm﹣when temperatures rise to 33℃． But it is very cold at night， the coldest time is at 4 am， when temperatures fall to ﹣1℃．
Because of the extreme temperatures in the desert， it is a very difficult place to survive（幸运）．Marco Rivera， our survival expert， has some tips．
Take warm clothes and a blanket． You will need a hat， long trousers and a thick sweater to keep you warm at night． During the day， cover your body， head and face． Clothes protect you from the sun and keep water in your body． You will also need a warm blanket at night． It can get cold rapidly． When the temperature drops， it can be a shock and make you feel even colder．
Try to drink some water at least once every hour． You need your water to last as long as possible． Drink only what you need． If you eat， you will get thirsty and your water will run out soon．You can eat a little， but only to stop you from feeling very hungry． Eat a small amount of food slowly．
It's important to stay out of the sun during the day． Make a hole under your car and lie there． This will keep you cool and help you sleep． Find a warm place to sleep at night． A small place near a tree or a rock will be the warmest． But be careful before you decide where to sleep． Dangerous animals like snakes also like to sleep in these places． Look carefully for animals before you lie down．
（1）The Sahara， the world's largest desert， is more than in size．
（2）In the Sahara． The between the day and the night is pretty big．
（3）In Paragraph 4， Marco Rivera tells us are necessary for our survival in the Sahara．
（4）We should at least once every hour and try to make our water last longer in the Sahara．
（5）In the Sahara， we should stay out of the sun during the day and find to sleep at night．
How much physical activity do you do in a week？ Are you getting enough exercise？（1） For example， people who exercise regularly are less likely to suffer from many diseases． Regular exercise reduces the risk of early death by 30%． It also improves your sleep quality．
Today， most adults are much less active than in the past because our jobs are far less physical than the work our grandparents used to do．（2） This lack of regular physical activity means people burn fewer calories than in the past， so we need to do something to consume （消耗）our energy． Experts think adults need to do 2.5 hours of moderate exercise per week．（3） ．
Exercise can be expensive， but it doesn't have to be． Team sports such as football can be cheap because all the players share the cost of the field．（4） It can also be very social．
If you don' t want to spend any money， try one of the following activities． Go for a run． The only equipment you need is a pair of running shoes． If you take the bus， try getting off one stop early and walking the extra distance． Go to the park． （5） You can play different kinds of games there． This is a great way to involve family members and friends．
In short， there are many easy ways of keeping fit． If we all recognize the value of doing this， we will live longer and be healthier．
| A． |
Try getting a group of friends or family together． |
| B． |
This could be fast walking or cycling on a flat road． |
| C． |
Regular activity benefits your health in many ways． |
| D． |
You should get more exercise and eat less to keep fit． |
| E． |
Joining a sports club is a cheap way of getting exercise． |
| F． |
Many of us spend seven hours or more just sitting on a chair each day． |
What will the world of the future be like？ There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050． Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow．
When we dream about the future， many like to think of owning a personal flying car． The advantages are obvious． This technology would allow total freedom of movement． We could fly at 480 km per hour， avoiding traffic lights and busy roads．
However， some people believe there will be problems with traffic control． If the cars become popular， there is likely to be air traffic jam． Another big problem is mechanical failure． What will happen if the cars stop working？ These are problems we must expect if flying cars become a reality．
Three﹣dimensional printing is another new technology with exciting possibilities． 3D printers are used to build an object with liquid plastic．They build the object layer by layer until it is complete． Car companies already use 3D printers to make life﹣size models of car parts， and medical companies use the technology to make man﹣made body parts． As we move into the future， 3D printing will revolutionize the way we shop， the way we manufacture and the way we treat sick people． The disadvantage is that such equipment will be extremely expensive．
So in the future， we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes.Although there are some problems to solve before this will be possible， we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people．

Many people love travelling to different countries， but if you plan to go abroad， you should know how to behave in different situations around the world．
Most travellers enjoy meeting new people， but sometimes you can be rude without saying anything． In Russia， you should never shake hands in a doorway， and if you're travelling in Thailand， never touch people's heads or point your feet at people． When the Japanese meet new people， they like giving business cards﹣﹣but you should read the card carefully， not just put it in your pocket．
In most countries in Europe people expect a lot of eye contact when you talk to them， but in many Asian countries a lot of eye contact seems unfriendly．And in South America people usually stand quite close to each other when they talk， but in countries like the USA you need to give people more personal space． Also， it's rude to interruptJapanese people while they are talking to you． You must wait until they finish before you start speaking．
In restaurants in China you can leave a bit of food on your plate， it's OK to start smoking before other people finish eating， which you mustn't do in the UK． When in India， remember to eat with your right hand． Also avoid leaving empty bottles on the dinner table in Russia﹣﹣that's bad luck．
When you're travelling in Asia， if someone invites you to his or her home， don' t forget to take off your shoes when you arrive． And if you visit an Arab family's home， don' t admire anything valuable because your host will feel he should give it to you as a present．
With so much to think about， it's not surprising that many people prefer going on holiday in their own countries﹣﹣or you might just decide to stay at home!

A． We can admire anything valuable in an Arab family's home．
B． In China， people cannot smoke before other people finish eating．

| Dear Rita， How are you？ Last time you asked me about the greatest invention in my eyes． I have also discussed it with my best friends， Anna， Sue and Kris． We have different ideas． Anna thinks it is the high﹣speed railway； Sue， the shared bike； Kris， the online shopping； and I prefer the Internet． The Internet is just like a net， and it connects us with the world． In the past， it was nearly impossible for people to communicate immediately with people in other countries． They had to spend a long time to reach their destinations （目的地）， and not everyone could do that． But the Internet has made the impossible possible． Now we can communicate with foreigners online． The Internet also helps us know what is happening around the world， and has made our life and work easier． In recent years， shopping online is very popular． We can just stay at home and buy what we need online． We can also do online office work and distance education． Besides， we can watch movies， listen to music and even play games to relax ourselves on the Internet． So， I think that the Internet is one of the greatest inventions． It has changed our world! Although there are still many problems with the Internet， they will be solved in the near future． As a student we should make good use of the Internet! Yours， Martin |
