Good afternoon! Welcome to England .  We  hope that your visit here will be a pleasant one. Now, I would like to tell you something about our laws.
The first one is about drinking. Now, you may not buy wine in the country if you are under 18 years of age, nor may your friends buy it for you.
The second one: noise. Enjoy yourselves by all means, but please don’t make unnecessary noise, especially at night. We ask you to respect other people who may wish to be quiet.
The third one: crossing the road. Be careful. The traffic moves on the left side of the road in the country. Use pedestrian crossings(人行横道) and do not take any chances when crossing the road.
My next point is about rubbish. It isn’t lawful to drop rubbish in the street. When you have something to throw away, please put it in your pocket and take it home, or put it in a dustbin.
Finally: smoking. It is against the law to buy cigarettes or tobaccos if you are under 16 years of age.
I’d like to finish by saying that if you need any kind of help, you can contact the police. The police will be pleased to help you. You can call, write or directly go to ask any policeman.

A month ago, we moved       our new house and mum bought a very beautiful tulip. Mum liked it very much.      . she was free, she would sit       her armchair beside the tulip and enjoys its beautiful colour       sweet smell.

She treated it like a baby and looked after it      . She put the tulip by window and moved it from one place to       to give the tulip enough sunshine. The first thing she did when she       every morning was       the tulip, Mum also fertilized (施肥) it many times.

She hoped that with great care, the tulip would become more and more beautiful and      , But the tulip was dying       too much sunshine, water and fertilizer.
