You know what it' s like. You’ ve just arrived in Washington D. C. after a long journey and all you really want to do is lie down and relax in your hotel room. But first you have to make a few quick notes for tomorrow's meeting, check your e-mails, and perhaps print out a few- things. And you need to make a few local telephone calls, and one call to your family.
And what do you usually get? Your desk is just about big enough for a cup of coffee, and there's no desk lamp~ the stationary(办公用品) is only several pieces of paper and the only pen there doesn't work at all. If you want to print something, you have to go to the Reception(前台),and when you try to use your cell phone, you find that it won't work in the U. S. A.
Well, Harmony Hotel is different. Just tell us ahead of time what you're going to need, and we'll make sure that it's waiting for you when you arrive. There will be a printer in your room if you want one, and a cell phone that really works. All you have to pay for is the calls you make.
We can also provide a room for business meetings, even a secretary to take notes. All we ask is a few days' notice.
All of our rooms are of the same high standard and we promise not to increase prices in the next twelve months. But book now, because many people are already calling to book rooms, and we'd hate to disappoint you.
Harmony--the hotel you've always wanted, but never been able to find before.

Jimmy spent most of his time in the bedroom when he was in university. With his aunt’s help, the young man found a job in a park after his graduation. There’re all kinds of flowers in the gardens and he has to look after them. He thinks it’s easy and often stays in bed.

One morning the head of the park found some of the flowers were dead. He called Jimmy there and asked him the reason. The young man studied for a long time but couldn’t answer. Just at that moment an old gardener passed by and the head asked him for help. The old man studied it for a while and said,” A mole(鼹鼠)is eating their roots(根).”

“I don’t think it has something to do with the dead flowers,” said the young man, “People appreciate(欣赏)not the roots, but the flowers!”

In China, there’re many different kinds of food. Some of them are very popular. The real Chinese food is dumplings. Now let’s talk about them, OK?
Everyone in China likes dumplings very much, and there are many different kinds of dumplings. Some have meat and vegetables in them, others have sugar, eggs and so on. I like dumplings with vegetables and pork better than any other kind.
Usually people make dumplings at home. If you have no time to make them, you can buy them from any supermarket. Then you take them home and eat them with vinegar.
The Spring Festival is very important in China. When it comes, we make dumplings, usually we put a coin(硬币) in a dumpling. If one eats the dumpling with the coin in it, he or she will be lucky in the year.
In the old days, people couldn’t often eat dumplings, because they were very poor. Now our country is becoming stronger and stronger, and our people are richer and richer. We can eat them very often.
Now tell me, do you like dumplings?
Welcome to China, and we’ll invite you to eat the real Chinese food —dumplings.

When we talk about how teenagers are getting worse and worse now, most young people don’t agree. Teenagers always say they are growing up. They can have part-time jobs.They can drive cars.And they can even get married when they’re a lillte bit older.
Their parents say, “ Our children are very good.They like pop music,but they play it in their own rooms.They help in the house.You know they feel bored sometimes because there’s nothing interesting in the neighborhood,no clubs,and no sports.They have nothing to do.
A teacher says that he believes most young people are very kind.He thinks that it’s not bad for young people to like loud music because it can give them lots of energy and make them feel excited .Also, a lot of young people work very hard at school,and they can get good jobs later.
Lewis,a sixteen-year-old boy said, “I have passed all my examinations,but I can’t get a part-time job because older people always think I’m lazy.”
In my opinion, a lot of teenagers are very kind.They belong to community work groups.They help old people,and they also volunteer in local hospitals or primary schools to help look after the sick people and younger students.

The world is divided (分) into two parts. One half of the world is rich and         is poor. In the poor part, a lot of people have never got enough to eat. When they are ill,        the hospitals can receive them because they have no enough           . In the rich part, a lot of people          too much. For example, a dog or a cat in North America eats more than a child in poor countries.
The poor countries have some other difficult problems. Sometimes the land is too poor to grow           on. People there don’t have rich land or enough water. The land can be made better, but a lot of things must be done. The people         be taught and water must be found.
But rich countries have problems. too. There’re not good places to         . Sometimes the air is not clean and the rivers are too dirty to swim in or drink. The roads and streets are full of people and buses. Cars and buses have to move         . Noise is too much. Some people don’t have houses. People must do something about the problems.
People must clean the air and the rivers, and they must         them clean. People have to build more houses.        we can’t do these things easily.
