A篇
What are your plans for a vacation Do you want to visit hutongs in Beijing, or would you like to fly to Hong Kong for a shopping trip What about spending a week or two on the beaches in Hainan And how about going camping
Camping is always popular. One survey by Visit Britain found around 4,380,000 people go camping in Britain every year. With nothing but food, water, a tent, and a sleeping bag, you can enjoy an exciting experience—putting up a tent on your own, learning to make a fire, and even cooking for yourself. You’re free from rules, and away from other people.
Camping is also a great way to relax and improve your well-being. When you are camping, you let go of all your problems in your day-to-day life, and the smell of dinner cooking over an open fire can help you to put your worries behind. And you can finally make peace with yourself.
So, if you really want to take time away from your studies and life, why don’t you spend a few peaceful nights under the moon and the stars in the countryside With any luck, you may even see a few cute animals!

My husband and I decided to pay a visit to New Zealand. We wanted to tour (旅游) the country, but we both hate long car journeys. Our travel agent (旅行代理人) advised a 13-day coach trip (长途客车旅行). It was a good price, so we booked it and bought our plane tickets to Christchurch. We made a good choice. The coach journeys passed quickly and our driver told us everything about each place. We learned a lot from him.
We flew from London to Christchurch and had a free day there before the coach trip started. We walked around the city from morning to night until we were exhausted. It has good museums, many restaurants and lovely shops.
The most unforgettable place we visited on the trip was Queenstown. We had three days there, but it wasn’t enough. We did lots of things there, from sailing (乘船航行) to climbing. At the end of each day, we felt very tired. But the next morning it seemed that everything was fresh again!
All the hotels we stayed at were good. My favorite one was Puka Park Lodge. It was on a hill above a beach and there were trees everywhere. We woke up and listened to the birds singing. Now, when we’re eating breakfast at home and hear the noise of the cars in the street, we think of those beautiful mornings in New Zealand!
6. The writer and her husband went to Christchurch ________.
A．by plane B．by train C．by coach D．by boat
7. What does the underlined word “exhausted” probably (可能) mean in the second paragraph
A．Excited. B．Surprised. C．Lucky. D．Tired.
8. What did the writer think of her stay in Queenstown
A．Strange. B．Dangerous. C．Enjoyable. D．Boring.
9. Where was Puka Park Lodge
A．In the city center. B．In a bird park. C．On a beach. D．On a hill.
10. What can we learn from the passage
A．The writer didn’t like the museums in Christchurch.

Dear Wang,
Great to hear you are coming to the USA! I do hope you can stop by and visit us in the Big Apple—a popular name for New York City. There are so many things to see and do here. It would take a lifetime to list them all: Chinatown, Wall Street, Central Park, to name only a few. But knowing you as I do, I’d suggest walking through Midtown Manhattan. It is very popular in the USA and just can’t be missed!
People often say that no visit to New York City is complete without a trip to Broadway! Broadway with its cafes, street performers (表演者) and colorful signs really represents New York’s loud spirit! As Broadway is the heart of the American theater industry, it’s at night when it truly comes alive. Broadway is well-known for its big theaters. They show Shakespeare, modern plays, dance shows or musicals-take your pick! With your love of singing and interest in drama (戏剧), I’d recommend (推荐) a musical. It’s a great and moving experience that I’m sure you would love—a bit like Peking Opera! Many musicals are based on classic stories like Les Miserables or Peter Pan, and they might even inspire (激发) you to read the books, too!
My big news is that I am going to China on vacation this winter. I am looking for places of interest in China. Can you recommend some to me
See you soon!
Leslie
