Dear Peter,
How is it going I am writing to share with you the interesting trip that my family members and I had during the National Holiday, wishing that it can bring much pleasure to you at the same time.
First of all, we went to Zoige grassland which is so gorgeous that there are a great many tourists coming there every year. What impressed us most was that people there were so simple and friendly, not only making us feel at home, but also giving us a sense of relaxation. The more you got along with them, the better you would feel. In addition to attractive scenery, it was burning sheep,beef, zanba and buttered tea that left a deep impression on me. What’s more, we took part in a series of activities. For example, we rode a horse on the vast grassland, enjoying the most beautiful sunset and the softness of wind
All in all, enjoyable and relaxing, this trip broadens my eyes and encourages me to get close to nature. What I do hope is that one day we can travel together. I am looking forward to your reply!
Yours

Recently I paid a visit to Harvard University, where there are top class scientists and professors and
the best academic system in the world.
I was pretty shocked when I first stepped into the campus. Well, it’s not even really a campus. It’s
th
more like a district in a small town. Harvard’s main buildings are from the 18 century. They look very
old and simple. You might even say they’re a little shabby. They don’t fit the modern idea of the
第 3 页 共 9 页
university at all. The buildings are surrounded by grass and trees, so I felt as if I had walked into an
ancient castle. But when I looked across the street, busy shops and in-fashion students made me feel
st
like I was in the 21 century again. It creates a strong contrast and brings a special atmosphere to the
school.
Our tour guide Gary took us around and told us, “You see this grass field in the center of the school
Here is where they host(举办) their graduation ceremony. They just set up tents and beaches and have
a very simple ceremony.” Unbelievable! Who would think the most talented students just graduate on
the lawn
I saw some students put a blanket on the grass and lie down to read a book. When I listened to the
soft sound of pages turning, along with singing of the birds, I felt very calm. There was no competitive
feeling at all.
Harvard has the world’s first computer in its science center and there are hundreds of high-end (高
端的)computers, too. Its religion and the literature departments are also among the best. It is the
perfect mix of tradition and new technology.It makes Harvard a very attractive place to study in.
I hope one day I’ll attend my dream school－Harvard.

A. the author’s campus life in Harvard. B. the academic system at Harvard.
C. Harvard’s old buildings. D. the author’s impression of Harvard.

A. Harvard students didn’t take their graduation ceremony seriously.
B. The classes were held on beautiful lawns at Harvard.
C. Harvard mixed tradition and new technology.
D.Harvard students had the feeling of not living in modern society on campus.
26. What can we know from the article
th
A. All Harvard buildings date back to the 18 century.
B. Graduation ceremonies are simple at Harvard.
C. There are no competitions at Harvard University.
D. Harvard campus is actually a district of a big city.
27. According to the article,, in which fields is Harvard top in the world

We all love chocolate, and most of us probably eat it every day, or at least several times a week. It
is one of the most favorite kinds of food in the world, and many would say that they can’t live without
it. However, there are many facts about the world of chocolate that most people do not know.

the truth is that he is treated like an animal. The child has never even had the chance to taste the
第 4 页 共 9 页
chocolate he spends his life producing.

valuable to Mayans that they were used as money. It is said that ten beans could buy a rabbit, and one
hundred beans were enough to buy a slave. People would buy everything from food to tools with the
beans. Generally, only the richer people drank chocolate regularly, because drinking your money is
expensive.

Trees are one of the oldest “ citizens(公民)” of our Earth. They keep our air clean, reduce noise
pollution, improve water quality and provide food and building materials.
Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At 1 to 3 years old, young trees learn how to protect
themselves. For example, many trees grow thorns(刺) to warn animals not to go near. Most young
trees have large, deep green leaves so that they can catch enough sunlight and change it into their food
and energy.
When trees are 4 years old, they begin to grow very rapidly and become strong enough to face
challenges later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin
to produce flowers and fruit.
It is not until the tree is 20 to 25 years old that it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest
size. The adult tree gives us shade, oxygen and natural beauty; it is also a great place for a tree house,
or a place for us to read a book, listen to music and so on. If we give the adult tree proper care, it will
go on to live healthily for many years.
Gradually, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their
important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow(空心的) or part of it becomes dead, it provides
a home to small animals and is a source of food for many other animals.
In many ways, the life of a tree is similar to our own life experience. When we are looking at the
life of a tree, we learn about that each period of life brings its own form of joy and challenge. Enjoy
