There Mr and Mrs Phairat. Their son Sanan, who is 18, Chinda, the daughter, who is 16, and Grandpa and Grandma.Mr Phairat has a business and travels a lot. Mrs Phairat works in the business,too, and she can speak several languages.I go to an international school with Sanan and Chinda. The school teaches about70 percent in English, and 30 percent in Thai. I’m picking up the spoken language, but Thai writing is very difficult. Cooking classes are my favorite. I’m learning all about Thai food and culture. People don’t use chopsticks here, but spoons and forks. When I come back, I’m going to cook you guys a real Thai meal.Last weekend we drove to Pattaya beach neat Bangkok. I thought it was great, but Sanan and Chinda say that next month they’re taking me to Phuket Island, where the beaches are even more beautiful. During vacation, we’re going to travel to the north of Thailand. The Phairats own land there, and they have tow elephants. The mahouts(handlers) use the animals to pull trees. I’m going to ride those elephants---and even wash them. Sanan and Chinda say it’s really fun.I’m interested in everything in the country, but especially by the elephants. Elephants are important part of Thai culture and way of life. They have been a traditional symbol of Thailand for many years in times of war and peace. In the seventeenth century, a Thai king trained 20,000 elephants for battle.I’ll tell you all about my Thai boxing lessons next time I write.LoveMandyAnswer the questions.104.

One day, he was sending an e﹣mail to a friend on the Internet. Suddenly he received a message saying "Help! Help! Help!" The message was from Finland,(芬兰) thousands of kilometers way from the USA."I didn't know what I should do, " Dean said to a reporter afterwards. "It was really difficult to tell if the message was real." So Dean did nothing at first. But the message kept coming."By then it was easy to see that someone was in trouble," Dean explained. He replied and discovered that the sender was a 20﹣year﹣old student called Tarja, who was alone in a university library. She was very ill. What was worse, there was no phone around her. Her only way of communicating with the world was by e﹣mail.Dean got in touch with the Texas police. The police immediately realized that the situation was quite serious.

She tells us about how the business began.When I was little, my mother began selling flowers in Camden Market. She couldn't leave me at home on my own, so I had to go to the market with her.To begin with, I didn't have to do anything. I just sat there, and my mum told me jokes and stories so I didn't get bored. When I got older, I gave my mum a hand and I really enjoyed it.Then, one year, my grandma gave me a book for Christmas. It was all about making candles and I loved it. I was 14, and I didn't have to go to the market any more because mum could leave me at home on my own. I spent my free time making candles of all shapes and sizes. I made hundreds of them.One day, my mother was ill so I had to go to the market on my own. I decided to take some candles with me and see if I could sell them. They were sold out in twenty minutes! The next week, my mum gave some money to buy some wax (蜡) to make more candles. They sold out really quickly, too.Nine months later, we decided to stop selling flowers. My mum and I couldn't make enough candles during the week, so some of my school friends started to help us. I paid them one pound for every candle, and we used to sell them for three or four times that. It was fun and my friends worked with me in the market.At the age of 22, my uncle lent me some money and I opened my first shop in Portobello Road. Since then, I've never looked back, even in difficulties. In the first store, we only sold candles, but now we sell everything from designer furniture to paintings.

I can walk to the forest when I feel I can not stand(忍受) the noise around me any more. But still I am quite worried by many noises, such as the pets in the neighbourhood, the rings of the telephones, the visits of the salesmen …If your place is noisy too, then my following advice may be good to you:1. Go to the coffeesIt sounds crazy, isn’t it? Can you work in such a noisy place? I like to work while listening to music. Someone likes the quietness and light music in the coffees. Actually, when I was writing a novel, I prefer to walk out to some public places such as restaurants, KFCs or stations where I can get some interesting things for my stories.2. Go to the libraryRecently, college libraries are not such quiet places, but public libraries keep its traditions. Of course, college libraries will be a good choice to do study, for there are plenty of books. If you are a college student, you had better go to the libraries in the colleges.3. Put on your earphonesSometimes I found it’s necessary to put on earphones when I am working at home. Of course, you should make sure which kind of music makes you work better.4. Arrange the time betterAs a SOHO, you needn’t work in a certain period of time. If you need a very quiet environment, try to work at midnight.5. Use other ways to make yourself betterIf the noise is too loud and strong, then take a rest! Listen to music, watch films, or walk outside, do something else. Start your work when i t’s quiet and you have enough energy.71.The writer’s house is located in a quieter place in the city without any noises around.72.The visits of the salesmen make the writer worried.73.The writer prefers some public places to get interesting things for his stories.74.College libraries are usually quieter than public libraries.75.In order to work better, the writer was sure to put on earphones while working at home.76.Working at midnight can provide you a very quiet environment.77.Having a rest is one of the ways to make yourself feel better.B. Choose the best answer(根据下面一封信的内容,选择最恰当的答案):(7分)Dear Laura,Germany is amazing! The scenery in the countryside is very beautiful. We got to ride through mountains when we went to Munich (慕尼黑). The city is exciting, and there are lots of shops everywhere. At home, people stay inside and work for most of the day, but people here like to go out more often.Our choir (合唱队) sang in a church yesterday. You should have heard how beautiful our voices were! It was an amazing experience, and the people there really enjoyed it. Later, we went sightseeing around the main square. The buildings are very beautiful and old. There is a much greater sense of history here than there is at home.The one thing I’m not crazy about is the food. They eat so differently here!

Obama gives his seven and ten-year-old daughters just a dollar a week each for the jobs they do. They help to do housework such as setting the table, washing dishes, and c 92 their play areas and bedrooms.Some people question if it is r 93 to give children allowances in this way. But most of the American parents believe that everyone in the family should be responsible for the housework. The people who agree with this point say that kids shou ldn’t just get allowances forn 94 , and that such payments can help kids learn it is not easy to get money -- this is the first l 95 of their money management skills. Most of the children in America are allowed to spend their allowances on the things they like. Many people think that kids can start receiving allowances around ages 4 or 5, when children start to understand how money w 96 in life.How much should the children get from their jobs is another problem, e 97 in these tough economic times (经济困难时期).

Of course, college libraries will be a good choice to do study, for there are plenty of books. If you are a college student, you had better go to the libraries in the colleges.3.

Use other ways to make yourself betterIf the noise is too loud and strong, then take a rest! Listen to music, watch films, or walk outside, do something else. Start your work when it’s quiet and you have enough energy.71. The writer’s house is located in a quieter place in the city without any noises around.72.
