Dear Sophie,l am glad to know that you are keen on Chinese culture.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

__________________________________________________________________

【答案】Dear_Sophie，

I_am_glad_to_know_that_you_are_keen_on_Chinese_culture. And I am willing to share something about the New Year with you.

Many activities are involved in the celebration of a new year. Chinese people usually make great preparations to usher in the new year, such as a thorough cleanup and a crazy purchase of goods. It is also customary to paste spring couplets on the door and cutpapers on the windows to pray for good luck. Additionally, the whole country looks very festive with people setting off firecrackers.

Since this year is the year of rooster, you asked the symbolic meaning of a rooster in your letter. I should say it is quite a positive image in Chinese culture, indicating punctuality.

The rooster also enjoys a good reputation for its aggressiveness. Moreover, its pronunciation sounds like “Ji”， which means “auspicious” in Chinese.

If you have any more questions, I am willing to offer help. Looking forward to your earliest reply.

Yours sincerely

Li Hua

"It's hard for parents to bring up their childrenmany students just ignore it, " said Liu Kang, the school's director. "They should(teach) to be grateful to their parents,who have given them life but ask for nothing in return ."
Li Ming is one of the students. His egg didn't break during the month, but he felt(exhaust). "I now understand what great difficulty my parents have had（bring）me up. I'll do all I can to make their life easier and(comfort) when I grow up,”promised the 13-year-old boy.
(luck), about 450 students broke their eggs. Yan Yueming broke his egg after just five days, which made him frustrated. He said,”I can't imagine sad my parents would be if there was something wrong with me, their ‘egg'! It is now time I did somethingreturn for their love,”said Yan.

Whether you're up for a Crocodile Dundee's adventure or you'd just like a taste of the Australian sun, the beaches in and around Sydney can offer you all that and more.
Sydney Beach
Sydney Beach is located at Sydney's northernmost tip on an extension(延伸) of land ending at Palm Beach. Before checking out the golden sand, take a quick tour of the houses of millionaires from the art and film industries.
Palm Beach
Only about an hour from downtown Sydney, Palm Beach offers a long stretch(延伸) of clean sand and water. With parking near the center of the beach, that leaves the rest of it as a peaceful location with a sparse population, from which you can go surfing but take care — without the huge crowds of other Sydney's beaches, Palm Beach doesn't afford quite the safety level to be found elsewhere. Volunteer lifesavers are on duty only on weekends and holidays.
Bondi Beach
For the famous beach, Bondi Beach has to be your choice. Parking is difficult to find even on slow days, so consider taking public transport to this world—known beach in the eastern Sydney suburbs. Easily reachable by taxi, bus, and rail, Bondi Beach offers sun bathing, swimming, snorkeling, and all sorts of water sports fun. If you're in the mood for a bit of exercise, two scenic coastal walks will afford you great views and sights along the shore. Take in views from Mackenzie's Point. It starts at Bondi and heads south to Bronte Beach. But don't try to swim in Mackenzie's Bay — it holds dangers such as hidden rocks.
Bronte Beach
Your second choice for a scenic coastal walk covers a few miles and takes you from Bronte Beach to Waverly Cemetery, where many famous Australians are buried, including the poet Henry Lawson.
（1）Which of the following shows the right order of the beaches lined from the south to the north?
A.Palm Beach—Sydney Beach—Bronte Beach—Bondi Beach
B.Bronte Beach—Bondi Beach—Palm Beach—Sydney Beach
C.Sydney Beach—Palm Beach—Bondi Beach—Bronte Beach
D.Bondi Beach—Bronte Beach—Palm Beach—Sydney Beach
（2）The underlined word "sparse" probably means ________.
A.large
B.thick
C.thin
D.crowded
（3）What can we learn from the passage?
A.If you want to enjoy a walk, you can choose Bondi Beach or Bronte Beach.
B.If you want to swim in Palm Beach, the safer time is on weekdays and holidays.
C.If you want to visit the famous people's tombs, you can choose Sydney Beach.
D.If you want to visit Palm Beach, the airplane is your best choice.
（4）What's the purpose of the text?

Summer time is a great opportunity for kids to learn how to work and earn a little bit of spending money. If your child needs a summer job, here are a few options to consider:
Lemonade/Cookie Stand
Benefits
Creates a concept of running a business: Your child will be his own boss, set his own price , and run the show. It's a great introduction to running his own business.
Limited Start-Up Costs: The things used to make lemonade are cheap, so your child should be able to get back his investment with a handful of sales.
What Kids Learn About Money: Your child will learn a very valuable lesson about pricing. The price of his lemonade will decide how much he can sell, if he will recover his investment and the amount of profit.
Yard Work
Benefits:
Repeated Customers: If a homeowner needs help raking (耙地) this year, he'll probably want help again next year. Your child should be able to maintain a regular set of customers after one season.

What Kids Learn About Money: Because of the variability (变动) in pay, your child will need to learn how to negotiate(谈判) a fair price with homeowners if they ask.
