Dear Mother，
I'm writing from our hotel at Sludge Beach．Sam and I are on vacation with the children for a few days．We’re happy to be here，but to tell the truth，we’re having a few problems．
The weather isn’t very good．In fact it’s cold and cloudy．Right now I’m looking out of the window, and it’s raining cats and dogs．
The children aren’t very happy．In fact they’re dull and they’re having a bad time．Right now they're sitting on the bed playing tic-tac-toe and watching TV．
The cafeterias(餐厅) here are expensive，and the food isn’t very good. In fact，Sam is at a clinic right now．He's having problems with his stomach(胃)．
All the other hotels here are beautiful and new．Our hotel is ugly, and it's very, very old．In fact right now a repair person is fixing the bathroom sink(水槽)．
So，Mother, we’re having a few problems here at Sludge Beach，but we’re happy．We’re happy to be on vacation，and we’re happy to be together．
See you soon．
Love
Laura

Maybe you know floods, earthquakes, sandstorms and so on. But have you heard of typhoons?
Typhoons are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea.Most happen in July, August and September.
How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates （蒸发）into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into sky. Then cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles（圆圈）and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 metres a second, a typhoon begins.
A typhoon has two parts, one is called the “eye”. In the eye, the wind does not move so fast. The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. Here are the strongest winds and hardest rains.
Typhoons are very dangerous. In November this year, Typhoon Haiyan killed 5500 people in Philippines. More people are missing.
What to do when a typhoon hits?
Stay inside. Close all the windows and stay away from them.
Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes!
Listen to the radio or TV for important information.
If you’re told to go to a safer place, do it right now.

You may know the English letters A, B and C. But do you know there are people called ABCs? Do you know there is such a thing as “a banana person”? How strange! ABC means American-born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside. So, when a person is a “banana”, he or she is white inside—thinking like a Westerner and yellow outside—looking like a Chinese.
Usually, ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language. Some of them don’t speak Chinese. But if ABCs cannot speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are overseas（海外的）Chinese. These people may be citizens（公民）of another country like he US, Canada or Singapore. But they have Chinese blood. Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair.
But they are not Chinese citizens. They are people of the People’s Republic of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist C. N. Yang（杨振宁）. He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957. Chinese people love him. But he is an American citizen.

| A．three English letters | B．a kind of banana |
| C．Chinese born in America | D．Americans born in China |
Chinese in Western countries are called “banana persons” because .
| A．their bodies are white inside but yellow outside |
| B．they think like Westerners but look like Chinese |
| C．they were born in China but go to study in America |

Which of the sentences is WRONG about ABCs?
| A．ABCs may know little about China. |
| B．They are overseas Chinese. |
| C．They may speak little Chinese. |
| D．They are Chinese citizens. |
This passage mainly talks about .
A. different kinds of bananas

There are many wetlands in China and some of them have become the world’s important wetlands.The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are among them. They are in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province. They are home for many different kinds of animals. The world’s largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve is in them. More than 700 Milu deer live freely there. There are not many red-crowned cranes in the world, but every winter you can see some in the Red-crowned Crane Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands.
The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine, too. They are really good places for wildlife.
