What do you do in a situation like this? You’re calling dinner with friends at a nice restaurant. You’re having a great time when a phone rings at the table next to you. A man takes out his phone and starts talking loudly about problems he’s having with his girlfriend. He talks for almost ten minutes! This happens all the time－on buses, in restaurants, everywhere!

Pay attention! Talking on a cell phone while driving is dangerous. And watch where you’re going when you’re walking down the streets and talking on the phone.

Dear Mr President,
I have been doing a project at school recently about animals in danger. I think their living c 71
is terrible in China. I am writing to you to suggest w 72 we should do to help protect animals more.
I feel so s 73 for the giant panda. It’s one of the most popular animals in the world and a
s 74 of China. We’ve learned that pandas mainly live on bamboo. I think we should try to do more to p 75 people from destroying their forests.
Another animal we should try to protect more is the Chinese alligator(扬子鳄). They live in some a 76 of eastern China, and now the water there isn’t c 77 enough for them to live in. The government should stop factories from p 78 the lakes and rivers.
If we protect these beautiful animals in China, more people may wish to visit China to see them. They could be an important t 79 attraction. It would be good if more people came to visit our beautiful country, e 80 some quieter places in the country.
I hope you will encourage more people to think about such an important subject.
Yours sincerely,
Huang Jing

English textbooks play an important part in our study of English. They are good materials for us to learn English well. They can not only open our minds but also make our school life colourful.
We’ve learned many wonderful things in the world in our textbooks, which help us get a better understanding of different cultures around the world and grow into an excellent person. Some famous people we’ve learned affect us a lot. My favorite one is Audrey Hepburn, a great American successful actress, who devoted much of her time and money to charity. I’ve learned a lot from her.
