Dear editor，
My English teacher is very strict(严厉)with US．Several days ago，when we were in class，Tom asked me a question．But she thought we were speaking in class．She asked us to stand at the back of the classroom for a few minutes．This made me uncomfortable．After that，I feel nervous in her class, so I don’t like her class．However，I really want to learn English well．What should I do?
Yours，
Mike
Dear Mike，
I am sorry you are having difficulty with your English class．Every teacher wants his or her students to study hard．So I think you should have a talk with your English teacher and tell her what you were doing with Tom that day．If she knows your worries，maybe she will help you with your English．And she will be pleased to hear you want to learn English well．I believe when students are not trying as hard as they can，a teacher is forced(被迫)to—take action．

Yesterday I was gone home by the bus and my father was going to pick me up at the station. On the bus, I see a young woman with several bags of heavier books get on. I wanted to offer her my seat, and I didn’t. In my surprise, she and I got off at the same stations later. After a short conversation, I learned she had to walk a long way home.

六．书面表达范文(25分)
Dear Smith，
Sandstorms have been a major disaster for many Asian countries for centuries.
Sandstorms begin in desert areas. This is a process that happens when land becomes desert because of climate changes and because people cut down trees and dig up grass.
Sandstorms are strong, dry winds that carry sand. To have been caught in a sandstorm was a terrible experience. Sandstorms are often so thick that you cannot see the sun, and the wind is sometimes strong enough to move sand dunes.
When sandstorm happens, you’d better not go out. If you have to go out, you’d better wear a mask. 21教育网
