Dear Vincent,

I’m a middle school student in Zhejiang , China. My English teacher , Ms.Li gave me your name and address. I want to be your pen friend.

 English is my favourite subject.That’s why I want to practise English with an American student. I also like art. It’s so interesting and useful.I like history, too. Our history teacher always tells us a lot of interesting historical stories. We all have a good time in history classes.

In my free time, I enjoy playing computer games . It’s exciting and fun. Do you like it ? I also like to go to the movies. I saw Harry Potter and the DeathlyHallows:Part 1 yesterday. It was a great film.But I don’t like sports, so I never enjoy P.E.classes.

How about you? What subjects do you like? What do you look like? What do you want to do when you get older? I hope I can get your letter soon!

Yours,

Zhao Gang

Have you ever seen people building houses? To build a house , you need workers. They use their hands , tools(工具) and machines to put things together. Building the ISS（国际太空站） is the same. The difference is that the workers are astronauts. They walk in space and use robots’ arms and hands to do their work.

In the space station ,astronauts are comfortable. The temperature there is about 21℃.But outside the station , it can be too hot or cold for people. In the sunlight, it’s about 120℃. In the shadow(阴暗处)of the station, it’s about -85℃ . So when astronauts walk in space , they have to wear heavy clothes----spacesuits.

Spacesuits also keep astronauts safe from flying rubbish(垃圾)in space.Each time people go into space , they leave rubbish there. So astronauts should be careful because there’s a lot of rubbish, some rubbish goes many times as fast as a plane !

Space walking is not easy , and it can be dangerous. So getting ready for it takes a lot of time to learn. Astronauts will need to do 160 space walks to finish their work in the ISS. That will take about 1,900man-hour of work.

李雷不知道该如何提高自己的英语听力水平，于是他在校园BBS上留言求助，有四位同学跟帖回答了他的问题。

LiLei: Hi, everyboby. I’m Jimmy. I like English very much, but I really need some advice on listening . Who can help me?

Jenny:  Don’t get nervous before you start to listen to something. You need to relax. This will help.

Dr.Smith:The first sentence tells a lot the whole passage.for example,if, at the beginning , you hear “Welcome back BBC news---”, you know you will hear a piece of news, not a children’s story, or a science report.

Shirley: When you’re listening, try to do some thinking. For example, you can think of the following questions: What happened? When, Where and how? What was the result (结果)and what did the speaker want to tell us? In this way, you may understand the passage better.

Josh:  It’s important for you to remember some important facts. for example, if the passage is a science report , you should try to remember its results and how the scientists got them.

请根据以上内容完成下面任务：以下A-D是针对上述解答内容的提炼，请将它们分别与对应的解答人配对：

A.listen to important facts.        B.listen carefully to the first sentence.

C.Relax yourself.               D.Think when you’re listening.

1.Jenny:       

2.Dr.Smith:          

3.Shirley:
