Mr Wang
Headmaster of Shandong Changhong High School
Box 001
15 Nov.
Dear Mr Wang，
As you know，our school used to look like a beautiful garden with green trees and many kinds of flowers in our schoolyard all year round.But great changes have taken place since a chemical work was built near our school two years ago.It produces poisonous gases and pours a large amount of waste water into the river.The terrible pollution has done great harm to students and teachers as well as to the surroundings.It's time for us to do something to protect our school and prevent her from being polluted.
First，we must make great efforts to clean up polluted water and stop further water pollution.Ask the government to maintain and improve present facilities，and construct new project with health，safety，and protection of the environment as primary concerns.
Second，we must insist that water pollution control laws be passed and strictly enforced.This responsibility extends also to members of the general public in our surrounding community.An important aspect of this responsibility is making ongoing water quality.
Finally，we can also protect ourselves against polluted water.We should take measures to clean the polluted water.
We hope you will give us a permission to carry out the project and donate 5000 yuan we need.And we also require you to make a report to ask for the government's rescue.By doing so，we will be able to live a healthier and happier life.
Yours sincerely，
Liu Wei

________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________
Ⅰ.The Frick Collection(弗里克收藏馆)
The Frick Collection is located in the former mansion of Mr Frick，whose private art collection was made into a museum after his death in the early twentieth century；the museum is designed to feel more like a private home than a public place.The mansion is a true work of art；the low stone building and courtyard take up almost an entire city block and statues stand prominently by the entranceway.Some of the rooms of the house have painted walls like the frescoes of a Renaissance church or castle，and the furniture that adorns all the rooms of the house is almost entirely from the sixteenth century.All the other rooms have rich wood walls and floors，marble fireplaces and decorative columns，giving visitors the sense of being in an old，musty castle or cathedral.It seems impossible that people actually lived here，but they did.
You'll see nothing more recent than 1880's French Impressionism here；most of the work is at least a century older than that，with one piece that is nearly seven hundred years old! Finding your way around can be complicated because the house has several small，out－of－the－way rooms that were incorporated into the museum.Take advantage of the free self－guided audio tours.Many of the paintings and sculptures have numbers posted next to them；you just punch a number into the audio player，a message，recorded by an art expert，explains the work's stylistic elements，historical context and gives the artist's biography.It's a simple and enjoyable way to tour the museum.
A visit to the Frick should take two or three hours，but if you want to get to every piece on the audio tour，your visit could take four hours or more.The Frick Collection is a museum that would appeal mostly to fans of classic sixteenth to eighteenth century European art.It is not recommended for kids.
Ⅱ.Metropolitan Museum of Art(大都会艺术博物馆)
The Metropolitan Museum of Art，known colloquially as the Met，is an art museum located on the eastern edge of Central Park，along what is known as Museum Mile in New York City，United States，North America.It has a permanent collection containing more than two million works of art，divided into nineteen curatorial departments.The main building，often referred to simply as “the Met”，is one of the world's largest art galleries；there is also a much smaller second location in Upper Manhattan，at “The Cloisters”，which features medieval art.
Represented in the permanent collection are works of art from classical antiquity and Ancient Egypt，paintings and sculptures from nearly all the European masters，and an extensive collection of American and modern art.The Met also maintains extensive holdings of African，Asian，Oceanic，Byzantine，and Islamic art.The museum is also home to encyclopedic collections of musical instruments，costumes and accessories，and antique weapons and armor from around the world.A number of notable interiors，ranging from 1st century Rome through modern American design，are permanently installed in the Met's galleries.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art was founded in 1870 by a group of American citizens.The founders included businessmen and financiers，as well as leading artists and thinkers of the day，who wanted to open a museum to bring art and art education to the American people.It opened on February 20,1872，and was originally located at 681 Fifth Avenue.
As of 2007，the Met measures almost 400 meters long and occupies more than 2 000 000 square feet.
Ⅲ.Whitney Museum of American Art(惠特尼美国艺术博物馆)
The Whitney Museum of American Art，often referred to simply as “the Whitney”，is an art museum with a focus on 20th and 21st century American art.Located at 945 Madison Avenue at 75th Street in New York City，the Whitney's permanent collection contains more than 18 000 works in a wide variety of media.The Whitney places a particular emphasis on exhibiting the work of living artists for its collection as well as maintaining an extensive permanent collection containing many important pieces from the first half of the century.The museum's Annual and Biennial exhibitions have long been a venue for younger and less well－known artists whose work is showcased by the museum.

display the variety and skill of their
craftsmanship. If the skill is lost there may
be no record of it. The gallery would
Provide them with an opportunity to preserve
this skill. If you were to allow them to display

I hope you will consider my suggestion

Dear editor,
I am writing to express my view concerning whether we should protect the old museum or build a supermarket. I feel that it would be beneficial if we built a supermarket there. It would be convenient for people to buy things. Although the old museum can tell us about how local people lived in the past, we must consider the development of our city and we must pay more attention to improving the life conditions of the living people now. So I would recommend that we should build a supermarket here. As for the old museum, we could move it to another place.
Best wishes to you.
Yours,
Susan
