So he asked his wife for help because she knew a little English. His wife told him, “When you meet Mr. President, just greet him with ‘How are you’,and he may answer ‘I am fine’. Then you need only to say ‘Me, too’, and leave the rest to your interpreter (口译). ”
When his plane landed at the airport, George said to the smiling Clinton, “Who are you?” This was quite unexpected to the president and surprised him greatly. But he quickly calmed (镇静) down.

If you love reading books, you must know about the book The Little Prince. It’s a famous novel written by a French writer. As one of the best-selling books in history, it has been sold as many as 200 million copies in 253 languages and dialects(方言). Now, around seventy years after the birth of the book, an American director has found a way to make it into a 3D animated film.
The book tells the story of a pilot, called The Aviator, who crashes(撞击)into the desert and meets a young prince there. However, in the film, the story starts years after the crash when The Aviator is much older. He has got a new neighbor called The Little Girl, whose mother wants her to get ready to enter the grown-up world. Slowly, the Aviator shares his story with The Little Girl by writing it down and sending her a page at a time. The pages are complete with the pictures in the book, speaking about his time in the desert and taking The Little Girl to an amazing world where anything is possible.
China is the first country in the world to see the film in two versions--in Chinese and English. The film shows The Little Girl’s life and tells The Little Prince’s story at the same time in a beautiful way.
Huang Lei, who voices the film together with his 9-year-old daughter, says the film is like a childhood dream which is lost by most adults in this stressed-out society.
“The most touching part is that every one of us was a good-natured kid like the Little Prince, and it’s a pity that this good characteristic(品质)goes away as time flies,” he says.

In the English class, we had a discussion on the topic of having a trip to the countryside or to the city. Taking a trip to the countryside can relax by fishing or swimming. And the fresh air might be your favorite. Yet, you might not have many choices in transportation.
Of course, a trip to the city also has its characters. If you like shopping, it’s very exciting to travel back and forth in large malls. You can visit museums to broaden your minds. Nevertheless, such a trip might cost much. And the traffic jam might let you down.
In my opinion, a trip to the countryside is better. There, you can enjoy the stars and the quiet night that you’ve never enjoyed.

A. how B. types C. which D. change E. give up F. usually
