3.Dear Anne,Thanks for your email.It's great to have a pen pal from another country.My name is Jeff,and my family has a farm in Australia.We grow wheat and crops on our farm.Let me tell you what happened here last week.
Until last week,our plants had been growing well because we've had a lot of rain.Then the locusts came.They flew towards our farm in a swarm(一大群),which contained millions of locusts and covered an area of several square kilometers.The locusts came from an area far away.They had flown through the night.
Early the next morning,I went outside with Dad.We looked at the swarm in the sky.I had never seen so many animals together at a time.Dad said there was nothing we could do for the crops.I wasn't afraid,because locusts don't hurt people.
The swarm landed in our fields,and the locusts ate most of our wheat.We lost a lot of our harvest.Then the locusts flew to other farms in our area and ate some of those crops,too.
I didn't go to school that day,because the swarm of locusts made it hard for drivers to see on the roads and the school bus didn't run.Instead,I helped Mum and Dad on the farm.
The locust plague(灾祸) is over now,and the locusts have all gone.Mum and Dad said we must get the damaged fields ready for the new plants.We are going to be very busy on the farm.Email me again soon.
Your new friend,
Jeff

| Come to Austria(奥地利)! Soll is a village in the mountains in western Austria.And the Post Hotel is clean and not expensive.It is opened by a local family.From the hotel you can see the whole village,the forests and the mountains.Temperatures in summer are usually 20 to 25 in the daytime,but much cooler by evening. |
| Enjoy Thailand(泰国)! When you visit Bangkok in Thailand,don't miss the early morning river boat trip to the Floating(漂浮) just outside the city.There you will find many kinds of fruits and vegetables.And you can pay for them when you sit in your boat.Don't forget your hat:the sun can be strong and it may be as hot as 40 at noon. |
| Visit Hawaii! Maybe the most beautiful place in Hawaii is Kauai.You can visit its long,sandy beaches in the south and west of the island,and mountains and forests in the north,but don't be surprised if it rains in the centre of the island.Daytime temperatures there are usually around 24to 26by the sea,and only a little cooler by late evening. |
