Caleb Anderson is a kid unlike any other. While most students his age are preparing for 7th grade, Caleb-from Marietta, Georgia-is starting his sophomore year of college.
The 12-year-old student is currently enrolled at Chattahoochee Technical College, where he is on track to earn his bachelor's degree in aerospace engineering in two years, according to CBS News. “I'm not really smart," Caleb told the outlet. “I just grasp information quickly. So, if I learn quicker, then I get ahead faster."But Caleb isn't just shooting for a diploma-he has his eyes set on joining the Georgia Institute of Technology or the Massachusetts Institute for Technology, which he hopes will help him get an internship(实习期） with Tesla and Space X founder Elon Musk.
“When I was like 1, I always wanted to go to space," he recently told USA Today."I figured that aerospace engineering would be the best path." Caleb learned sign language when he was 9 months old and kept improving after that. He started reading a few months later, then was able to solve math problems around his second birthday, CBS News reported. He was just 3 years old when he qualified for MENSA-a non-profit organization for people who score in the 98th percentile or higher in a standardized intelligence test.
Caleb's parents knew early that their child was one of a kind, especially when they talked to other parents. “As we started to interact with other parents, and had other children, then we started to realize how exceptional this experience was, because we had no other frame of reference," Caleb's dad, Kobi, told WKYC."He has far surpassed me in math, so I can't help him anymore," Caleb's mother, Claire, told WKYC that she hopes her son's example can show other African-American parents that their child can be just as special.
“I think people have a negative perspective when it comes to African-American boys," she said."There are many other Calebs out there. "
She continued,"From being a teacher-I really believe that. But they don't have the opportunity or the resources."
24. Why is Caleb unlike any other kid?
A. He is an African-American boy.
B. He is from Marietta, Georgia.
C. He is a college sophomore and a MENSA member.
D.His mother is a teacher.
25. Up to now,Caleb
A. has joined the Georgia Institute for Technology
B.has got an internship with Elon Musk
C. has earned his bachelor's degree
D.has learned sign language
26. What can we infer from Caleb's growth?
A. He is a gifted child from birth.
B. Aerospace engineering is the best path for kids.
C. Sign language plays a key role in character training.
D. Kids should be taught to learn math before two years old.
27.In the eyes of Caleb's mother,_
A. African-American boys can be very special
B. her child is exactly the same as other African-American boys
C.African-American boys are provided with good resources
D. people now have a correct attitude to African-American boys

Scientists say they are in a race against time. The endangered Franciscana Dolphin population off the Argentine coast is shrinking. The dolphins are dying in fishing nets and scientists are trying to reverse(扭转）that trend.
Doctor Martin Mandez is one of the team leaders. He and his colleagues are combining three lines of research. They are catching the dolphins and implanting devices for satellite tracking. They are testing environmental conditions such as the food supply and water temperature to better understand why the dolphins choose to live there. And back in New York, Mandez is studying the dolphins on a molecular(分子的） level by sequencing(测定序列）their DNA to better classify family groups.
They think that they basically completed a very important piece of research. They combined each of their new data for addressing population structure.
The team hopes the combined data will paint a very clear picture of the rare dolphin's habitat, allowing scientists like Pablo Bordino to make informed recommendations for their protection. Bordino says the research is born some surprising discoveries.
They are finding that those animals are special residents. They don't like to move a lot so that results support the genetic results too.
And that could be important, according to Mandez, gill net fishing in certain areas has the potential to wipe out entire families of Franciscana Dolphins.
Basically the end-goal is to preserve such kind of dolphins, as a viable(可繁衍的）species.This means having viable populations to distribute(分布）in space.So they are basically doing everything they can, combining all the evidence they can, different tools, and different lines of research to provide the best understanding they can to then put together a sense of conservation plan. So they are basically at the point they. trust throwing science at its best to address this issue.
Mandez says in recent years, local fishing and the government in Argentina had been helpful to their mission. Ultimately though, he believes the fate of the Franciscana dolphin may come down to science.
28. Which of the following statements belongs to the three lines of research?
A.Tracking the leader of a dolphin family with satellites.
B. Improving the living conditions of the dolphins.
C. Studying the dolphins' preference for where to live.
D. Classifying the dolphins into different family groups by their habitats.
29.The Franciscana dolphin's habit of living in certain areas without moving may have a consequence that
A. they may eat up all the food in certain areas
B. they may have the potential to harm other sea life
C.they are likely to be killed off by gill fishing
D.they will have trouble adapting to the environment in other areas
30. What determines the fate of the Franciscana dolphin according to Mandez?
A.Science.
B.Local fishing.
C.The habitat.
D.The government's effort.
31. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Fishing nets are putting rare dolphins in great danger.
B.Satellite tracking is widely used in protecting endangered dolphins.
C. Scientist are testing environmental conditions off the Argentine coast.
D.Scientists are trying to stop Franciscana Dolphin population from dying out.

For some in China, the aim of travel is to create 15-second videos. It's not about where you've been. it's about where you're seen to have been.
Perched(坐落于） on cliffs above a river,Hongyadong is a stilt-house complex in mock-traditional(仿古的） style in the city of Chongqing. Its bars, restaurants and golden neon lights have been a popular draw since it was built in 2006. Last year the number of visitors surged, with the waiting time to get in being three hours.For a while Hongyadong became the biggest attraction in China after the Forbidden City. The main reason,it seemed, was Hongyadong's sudden popularity on a social-media app.Douyin,which is used for sharing photographs and 15-second videos.
Instead of having fun, some people now go in great numbers to remote strawberry farms or Icelandic fjords（峡湾）to take photos to impress their friends on social media. In China, Douyin, launched in 2016,has 230m monthly active users. Unlike users of Instagram, who mainly browse feeds of pictures posted by people they follow,Douyin's fans commonly use the app to watch hot-trending videos posted by users they do not know under categories such as “food" and “scenic spots".
Uploading a picture or video from a photogenic spot to sites such as Douyin and Kuaishou is known in China as daka, meaning "punching the card". The word is also used to refer to the practice of registering your presence at a location that has already become hot. The aim is not to produce a well-crafted video or beautiful photograph, but simply to show that you have also been to the places that are popular.
A subculture has developed of young people who choose daka as a lifestyle. So-called daka zu-"daka tribes"-can be found roaming Chongqing and other cities, checking in at as many hot locations as possible within a single day. Guides can be found online, to show the most efficient ways to achieve this. Companies offer “daka tours". Shops and restaurants in China try to make themselves as daka- friendly as possible: a coffee shop in Beijing built inside a shipping container, for example. Douyin users can use the app to create "daka videos": super-speed slide shows of themselves at daka sites.
The daka craze may have practical origins (起源）。 China's young urban professionals have little vacation time. In their first year at a company, employees can expect at most five-day paid-vacation. So workers need to make the most of their limited leisure time. Douyin captures the mood with its slogan: “Make every second count."
32. What made Hongyadong the second biggest tourist attraction in China?
A. Its location and mock-traditional style.
B. The three-hour waiting time to access it.
C. Its bars, restaurants and golden neon lights.
D. Quite a few users sharing photos and videos of it on Douyin.
33. What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?
A. Icelandic fjords are the most famous travel destination on social media.
B.Strawberry farms are highly recommended on social media.
C. The purpose of travelling has been changed by social media.
D.Social media make it possible for users to have fun in remote areas.
34. What most probably causes the increasing popularity of daka?
A. The desire for travel.
B.Limited leisure time.
C.Daka- friendly working places.
D. Free daka tours.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Are social media popular in China?
B. Is daka the aim of travel?
C.Hongyadong,a must-see spot
D. A slow-paced life, a better choice

The family had just moved to Rhode Island, and the young woman was feeling a little sad on that Sunday in May. After all, it was Mother's Day-and 800 miles separated her from her parents in Ohio.
She had called her mother that morning to wish her a happy Mother's Day, and her mother had mentioned how colorful the yard was now that spring had arrived. As they talked, the younger woman could almost smell the fragrance(香味）of purple lilacs(紫丁香） hanging on the big bush outside her parents' back door. Later,when she mentioned to her husband how she missed those lilacs, he popped up from his chair. “I know where we can find all you want," he said.
So off they went, driving the country roads of northern Rhode Island on the kind of day only mid-may can produce: warm sunshine, unclouded blue skies and vibrant(充满生机的） newness of the green and growing all around.
Before they got halfway up the hill, the fragrance of the lilacs drifted down to them, and the kids started running. Soon, the mother began running, too, until she reached the top. With a smile, the young woman rushed up to the nearest bush and buried her face in the flowers, drinking in the fragrance and the memories it brought back. Carefully, she chose a sprig(小枝） here, another one there. Finally, though, they returned their car for the trip home.While the kids chattered and the man drove, the woman sat smiling, surrounded by her flowers, a faraway look in her eyes.
When they were within three miles for home, she suddenly shouted to her husband, “Stop the car. Stop right here!" The man slammed on the brakes(刹车）。 Before he could ask her why she wanted to stop. the woman was out of the car and hurrying up a nearby grassy slope (斜坡） with the lilacs still in her arms.
At the top of the hill was a nursing home and, because it was such a beautiful spring day, the patients were outdoors strolling with relatives or sitting on the porch. Among them was an elderly lady, sitting in her wheelchair alone, head bowed, her back to most of the others.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右：
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The young woman went directly to her, holding the flowers tightly..
“Mom, who was that lady?" the kids asked as the car pulled away..

One possible version:
Dear fellow citizens,
Standing Committee of Jiangsu Provincial People’s Congress has recently issued a regulation that all citizens shall wear a helmet while riding an electric?bicycle.
It is a sad but common phenomenon that traffic accidents happen frequently, which poses a great threat to people’s safety, electric bicycle riders in particular. As for the possible reasons, the lack of safety awareness is a major one. Therefore, top priority should be given to wearing helmets if we are to guarantee our life. Helmets can undoubtedly protect us from possible blow when accidents happen.
I’m appealing to all electric bicycle riders to abide by the regulation and make every endeavor to put safety in the first place by wearing helmets.

One possible version:
The young woman went directly to her, holding the flowers tightly. Across the porch railing went the flowers, onto the lap of the old woman. She lifted her head slowly, eyes wide with confusion. The young woman bent down, holding her hands gently and said, “Happy Mother’s Day! They are flowers from a daughter.” The old lady’s eyes narrowed in delight, her face lit up with a smile. The two women chatted like old friends for a while and then the young woman ran back to her family.
“Mom, who was that lady?” the kids asked as the car pulled away. “I don’t know.” “But why did you give all your favourite flowers to her?” The kids protested. “It’s Mother’s Day today, but she seemed alone. After all, who wouldn’t be cheered up by flowers?” The mother explained patiently, holding the kids tightly in her arms, “I have all of you, and I still have my mother, even if she is far away. That woman needs those flowers more than I do.” The kids seemed to have understood the true meaning of lilacs, the rich fragrance of which would always permeated around them.

W: When my brother came back from the army, he was a changed man.
M: He doesn’t seem any different to me.
W: He’s changed a lot. Believe me.
M: Can you give me some examples?
W: Yeah. Just the other day he shouted at me for not talking with him. I was just reading books to prepare for my exam the next day. I had no time to have a talk with him.
M: That doesn’t sound like your brother at all.[.
W: That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you. He seems like a strange person to me.
M: Have you thought about talking to him?
W: I’ve tried. But he only shouted at me. I was hoping you could say something to him.
M: Me?
W: You’re his closest friend. I think he’d listen to you if you talked to him. Would you please give it a try?
M: All right. I’ll speak to him when he gets home from work.

W: OK. Do you do any sport?
M: Yes, go swimming in the local swimming pool three times a week.

M: No,I haven’t got a garden—I live in a flat.
W: What about holidays?

Hello, my name is Sally Croft, and I’m here to tell you about next week’s trip to France. Please write down what you need to bring.
First of all, a lot of you have asked what the weather will be like next week. Well, it will be a little cool in the evening, so I recommend that you take a sweater with you. During the day, temperatures will be high so don’t forget your suncream, your sunglasses and of course your swimsuit. The good news: there is no rain or wind.
The hotel we are staying in will provide soap. And there is a hairdryer in every bathroom. Toothbrushes and toothpaste are your responsibility, though. The hotel also provides free pickup at the airport. The very friendly staff can provide travel information and book tours.
Meals are served in the dining room on the first floor, as follows: breakfast is served from 6:30 to 10:00 a.m.;lunch is available between 12:30 and 2:00 p.m.; and dinner is from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. You will enjoy a healthy diet in France. And there is quite a variety: in the “meat” division alone. You can find beef, pork, mutton and so on. You can also find vegetables and fruits from all over the world. French cooking is so impressive: imagination!
And a final word about travel documents: You will not be allowed to enter France without your passport, so I think that’s about all. If you have any questions about the trip, I’ll be in the coffee bar all morning.

Caleb Anderson is a kid unlike any other. While most students his age are preparing for 7th grade, Caleb-from Marietta, Georgia-is starting his sophomore year of college.
The 12-year-old student is currently enrolled at Chattahoochee Technical College, where he is on track to earn his bachelor's degree in aerospace engineering in two years, according to CBS News. “I'm not really smart," Caleb told the outlet. “I just grasp information quickly. So, if I learn quicker, then I get ahead faster."But Caleb isn't just shooting for a diploma-he has his eyes set on joining the Georgia Institute of Technology or the Massachusetts Institute for Technology, which he hopes will help him get an internship(实习期） with Tesla and Space X founder Elon Musk.
“When I was like 1, I always wanted to go to space," he recently told USA Today."I figured that aerospace engineering would be the best path." Caleb learned sign language when he was 9 months old and kept improving after that. He started reading a few months later, then was able to solve math problems around his second birthday, CBS News reported. He was just 3 years old when he qualified for MENSA-a non-profit organization for people who score in the 98th percentile or higher in a standardized intelligence test.
Caleb's parents knew early that their child was one of a kind, especially when they talked to other parents. “As we started to interact with other parents, and had other children, then we started to realize how exceptional this experience was, because we had no other frame of reference," Caleb's dad, Kobi, told WKYC."He has far surpassed me in math, so I can't help him anymore," Caleb's mother, Claire, told WKYC that she hopes her son's example can show other African-American parents that their child can be just as special.
“I think people have a negative perspective when it comes to African-American boys," she said."There are many other Calebs out there. "
She continued,"From being a teacher-I really believe that. But they don't have the opportunity or the resources."
24. Why is Caleb unlike any other kid?
A. He is an African-American boy.
B. He is from Marietta, Georgia.
C. He is a college sophomore and a MENSA member.
D.His mother is a teacher.
25. Up to now,Caleb
A. has joined the Georgia Institute for Technology
B.has got an internship with Elon Musk
C. has earned his bachelor's degree
D.has learned sign language
26. What can we infer from Caleb's growth?
A. He is a gifted child from birth.
B. Aerospace engineering is the best path for kids.
C. Sign language plays a key role in character training.
D. Kids should be taught to learn math before two years old.
27.In the eyes of Caleb's mother,_
A. African-American boys can be very special
B. her child is exactly the same as other African-American boys
C.African-American boys are provided with good resources
D. people now have a correct attitude to African-American boys

Scientists say they are in a race against time. The endangered Franciscana Dolphin population off the Argentine coast is shrinking. The dolphins are dying in fishing nets and scientists are trying to reverse(扭转）that trend.
Doctor Martin Mandez is one of the team leaders. He and his colleagues are combining three lines of research. They are catching the dolphins and implanting devices for satellite tracking. They are testing environmental conditions such as the food supply and water temperature to better understand why the dolphins choose to live there. And back in New York, Mandez is studying the dolphins on a molecular(分子的） level by sequencing(测定序列）their DNA to better classify family groups.
They think that they basically completed a very important piece of research. They combined each of their new data for addressing population structure.
The team hopes the combined data will paint a very clear picture of the rare dolphin's habitat, allowing scientists like Pablo Bordino to make informed recommendations for their protection. Bordino says the research is born some surprising discoveries.
They are finding that those animals are special residents. They don't like to move a lot so that results support the genetic results too.
And that could be important, according to Mandez, gill net fishing in certain areas has the potential to wipe out entire families of Franciscana Dolphins.
Basically the end-goal is to preserve such kind of dolphins, as a viable(可繁衍的）species.This means having viable populations to distribute(分布）in space.So they are basically doing everything they can, combining all the evidence they can, different tools, and different lines of research to provide the best understanding they can to then put together a sense of conservation plan. So they are basically at the point they. trust throwing science at its best to address this issue.
Mandez says in recent years, local fishing and the government in Argentina had been helpful to their mission. Ultimately though, he believes the fate of the Franciscana dolphin may come down to science.
28. Which of the following statements belongs to the three lines of research?
A.Tracking the leader of a dolphin family with satellites.
B. Improving the living conditions of the dolphins.
C. Studying the dolphins' preference for where to live.
D. Classifying the dolphins into different family groups by their habitats.
29.The Franciscana dolphin's habit of living in certain areas without moving may have a consequence that
A. they may eat up all the food in certain areas
B. they may have the potential to harm other sea life
C.they are likely to be killed off by gill fishing
D.they will have trouble adapting to the environment in other areas
30. What determines the fate of the Franciscana dolphin according to Mandez?
A.Science.
B.Local fishing.
C.The habitat.
D.The government's effort.
31. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Fishing nets are putting rare dolphins in great danger.
B.Satellite tracking is widely used in protecting endangered dolphins.
C. Scientist are testing environmental conditions off the Argentine coast.
D.Scientists are trying to stop Franciscana Dolphin population from dying out.

For some in China, the aim of travel is to create 15-second videos. It's not about where you've been. it's about where you're seen to have been.
Perched(坐落于） on cliffs above a river,Hongyadong is a stilt-house complex in mock-traditional(仿古的） style in the city of Chongqing. Its bars, restaurants and golden neon lights have been a popular draw since it was built in 2006. Last year the number of visitors surged, with the waiting time to get in being three hours.For a while Hongyadong became the biggest attraction in China after the Forbidden City. The main reason,it seemed, was Hongyadong's sudden popularity on a social-media app.Douyin,which is used for sharing photographs and 15-second videos.
Instead of having fun, some people now go in great numbers to remote strawberry farms or Icelandic fjords（峡湾）to take photos to impress their friends on social media. In China, Douyin, launched in 2016,has 230m monthly active users. Unlike users of Instagram, who mainly browse feeds of pictures posted by people they follow,Douyin's fans commonly use the app to watch hot-trending videos posted by users they do not know under categories such as “food" and “scenic spots".
Uploading a picture or video from a photogenic spot to sites such as Douyin and Kuaishou is known in China as daka, meaning "punching the card". The word is also used to refer to the practice of registering your presence at a location that has already become hot. The aim is not to produce a well-crafted video or beautiful photograph, but simply to show that you have also been to the places that are popular.
A subculture has developed of young people who choose daka as a lifestyle. So-called daka zu-"daka tribes"-can be found roaming Chongqing and other cities, checking in at as many hot locations as possible within a single day. Guides can be found online, to show the most efficient ways to achieve this. Companies offer “daka tours". Shops and restaurants in China try to make themselves as daka- friendly as possible: a coffee shop in Beijing built inside a shipping container, for example. Douyin users can use the app to create "daka videos": super-speed slide shows of themselves at daka sites.
The daka craze may have practical origins (起源）。 China's young urban professionals have little vacation time. In their first year at a company, employees can expect at most five-day paid-vacation. So workers need to make the most of their limited leisure time. Douyin captures the mood with its slogan: “Make every second count."
32. What made Hongyadong the second biggest tourist attraction in China?
A. Its location and mock-traditional style.
B. The three-hour waiting time to access it.
C. Its bars, restaurants and golden neon lights.
D. Quite a few users sharing photos and videos of it on Douyin.
33. What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?
A. Icelandic fjords are the most famous travel destination on social media.
B.Strawberry farms are highly recommended on social media.
C. The purpose of travelling has been changed by social media.
D.Social media make it possible for users to have fun in remote areas.
34. What most probably causes the increasing popularity of daka?
A. The desire for travel.
B.Limited leisure time.
C.Daka- friendly working places.
D. Free daka tours.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Are social media popular in China?
B. Is daka the aim of travel?
C.Hongyadong,a must-see spot
D. A slow-paced life, a better choice

The family had just moved to Rhode Island, and the young woman was feeling a little sad on that Sunday in May. After all, it was Mother's Day-and 800 miles separated her from her parents in Ohio.
She had called her mother that morning to wish her a happy Mother's Day, and her mother had mentioned how colorful the yard was now that spring had arrived. As they talked, the younger woman could almost smell the fragrance(香味）of purple lilacs(紫丁香） hanging on the big bush outside her parents' back door. Later,when she mentioned to her husband how she missed those lilacs, he popped up from his chair. “I know where we can find all you want," he said.
So off they went, driving the country roads of northern Rhode Island on the kind of day only mid-may can produce: warm sunshine, unclouded blue skies and vibrant(充满生机的） newness of the green and growing all around.
Before they got halfway up the hill, the fragrance of the lilacs drifted down to them, and the kids started running. Soon, the mother began running, too, until she reached the top. With a smile, the young woman rushed up to the nearest bush and buried her face in the flowers, drinking in the fragrance and the memories it brought back. Carefully, she chose a sprig(小枝） here, another one there. Finally, though, they returned their car for the trip home.While the kids chattered and the man drove, the woman sat smiling, surrounded by her flowers, a faraway look in her eyes.
When they were within three miles for home, she suddenly shouted to her husband, “Stop the car. Stop right here!" The man slammed on the brakes(刹车）。 Before he could ask her why she wanted to stop. the woman was out of the car and hurrying up a nearby grassy slope (斜坡） with the lilacs still in her arms.
At the top of the hill was a nursing home and, because it was such a beautiful spring day, the patients were outdoors strolling with relatives or sitting on the porch. Among them was an elderly lady, sitting in her wheelchair alone, head bowed, her back to most of the others.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右：
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The young woman went directly to her, holding the flowers tightly..
“Mom, who was that lady?" the kids asked as the car pulled away..

It is a sad but common phenomenon that traffic accidents happen frequently, which poses a great threat to people’s safety, electric bicycle riders in particular. As for the possible reasons, the lack of safety awareness is a major one. Therefore, top priority should be given to wearing helmets if we are to guarantee our life. Helmets can undoubtedly protect us from possible blow when accidents happen.
I’m appealing to all electric bicycle riders to abide by the regulation and make every endeavor to put safety in the first place by wearing helmets.

One possible version:
The young woman went directly to her, holding the flowers tightly. Across the porch railing went the flowers, onto the lap of the old woman. She lifted her head slowly, eyes wide with confusion. The young woman bent down, holding her hands gently and said, “Happy Mother’s Day! They are flowers from a daughter.” The old lady’s eyes narrowed in delight, her face lit up with a smile. The two women chatted like old friends for a while and then the young woman ran back to her family.
“Mom, who was that lady?” the kids asked as the car pulled away. “I don’t know.” “But why did you give all your favourite flowers to her?” The kids protested. “It’s Mother’s Day today, but she seemed alone. After all, who wouldn’t be cheered up by flowers?” The mother explained patiently, holding the kids tightly in her arms, “I have all of you, and I still have my mother, even if she is far away. That woman needs those flowers more than I do.” The kids seemed to have understood the true meaning of lilacs, the rich fragrance of which would always permeated around them.

W: Well,I really love to travel. Uh,every year I go somewhere new.I never go to the same country twice. I think my favorite part is probably trying new foods.
M: Yeah, but the best thing about traveling, I find, is the people that you meet.
W: Oh,that’s true. I’ve met some great people. Uh, well, see, I try to travel by train rather than by car or by plane. And that way you always meet lots of new and interesting people.

M: Where are you now? In your room?
W: No. I’m wandering around the hotel. It’s really a good place.
M: Yeah. You work out, right?Go take a look at the fitness center.
W: Where is that?
M: You can get to the fitness center from the back of the hotel. You’re going to walk past it to the lift. The first door you’ll come to on the right is the business center. A little further down is the fitness center. It’s also on the right.
W: Sounds good. Where are the conference rooms we’ll be using tomorrow?

W: When my brother came back from the army, he was a changed man.
M: He doesn’t seem any different to me.
W: He’s changed a lot. Believe me.
M: Can you give me some examples?
W: Yeah. Just the other day he shouted at me for not talking with him. I was just reading books to prepare for my exam the next day. I had no time to have a talk with him.
M: That doesn’t sound like your brother at all.[.
W: That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you. He seems like a strange person to me.
M: Have you thought about talking to him?
W: I’ve tried. But he only shouted at me. I was hoping you could say something to him.
M: Me?
W: You’re his closest friend. I think he’d listen to you if you talked to him. Would you please give it a try?
M: All right. I’ll speak to him when he gets home from work.

Hello, my name is Sally Croft, and I’m here to tell you about next week’s trip to France. Please write down what you need to bring.
First of all, a lot of you have asked what the weather will be like next week. Well, it will be a little cool in the evening, so I recommend that you take a sweater with you. During the day, temperatures will be high so don’t forget your suncream, your sunglasses and of course your swimsuit. The good news: there is no rain or wind.
The hotel we are staying in will provide soap. And there is a hairdryer in every bathroom. Toothbrushes and toothpaste are your responsibility, though. The hotel also provides free pickup at the airport. The very friendly staff can provide travel information and book tours.
Meals are served in the dining room on the first floor, as follows: breakfast is served from 6:30 to 10:00 a.m.;lunch is available between 12:30 and 2:00 p.m.; and dinner is from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. You will enjoy a healthy diet in France. And there is quite a variety: in the “meat” division alone. You can find beef, pork, mutton and so on. You can also find vegetables and fruits from all over the world. French cooking is so impressive: imagination!
And a final word about travel documents: You will not be allowed to enter France without your passport, so I think that’s about all. If you have any questions about the trip, I’ll be in the coffee bar all morning.
