Bermuda Triangle is in the Atlantic Ocean, near Florida in the USA. It is known as “The Triangle of Death”, for its strange seawater and sudden storms.
At 2:00 pm on December 5, 1945, five planes took off in fine weather from the airport of Florida, on a training task. Two hours later, the leader in the sky radioed that he was “completely lost”. Then there was silence. Another plane was sent to look for them and it also disappeared.

Dear Jack,
I understand why you feel annoyed. As a 15-year-old boy, the changes of your body and mind are telling you that you are becoming an adult. You want your own space and feel annoyed because your parents always seem to hang around and tell you what to do. They come into your space — your room or the bathroom — like they did a few years ago, but now you want space. Explain to them that you are growing up now and want some space. Perhaps they have different opinions from yours as the world may be different from that when they were at your age. So you need to talk with your parents more often. They also need to know that you love them, even if you feel a bit embarrassed about telling them now that you are older.
Well, I hope what I say is helpful. Have a good time with your family!
Yours,
Kate

Choosing healthy snacks means shopping smartly. Be careful of the health claims on food packages. Here are some things to watch out for.
Remember that something “all natural” or “pure” doesn’t necessarily mean it’s nutritious. For example, “all natural” juice drinks or sodas have lots of sugar. All that sugar means they’ll be high in calories and give you little nutrition.
Doubt low-fat food claims, too. If the fat has been cut back, the amount of sugar in the food may have increased to keep that food tasting good. Many low-fat foods have nearly as many calories as the full-fat ones.
Whatever claims a food company writes on the package, you can judge whether a food is healthy for you by reading the ingredients and the nutrition information on the food label.
1. What does choosing healthy snacks mean
2. Where are the health claims of foods usually
3. What can “all natural” juice drinks or sodas have
答案与解析：
1. 根据 Choosing healthy snacks means shopping smartly，可知答案：Shopping smartly.
2. 根据录音 Be careful of the health claims on food packages，可知答案：On their packages.
