Last summer I go to Hangzhou with two Americans. I became their guide. First, we went to the West Lake, that is a famous place of interest in Hangzhou. We looked around it by the boat. After that, we went shop. The sellers couldn’t speak English. Though it was very harder, I tried my best to listen their words carefully and translate the sentences. They bought many things with their help. Next, we went to a small zoo but took some pictures. When we felt hungry, we went out and had lunch. After lunch, we visited some old house. All of us had a greatly time that day.

I have received your letter and I am glad to give you some 1. (suggestion). First of all, don’t be 2. (disappoint). English is more or less difficult. Many students find 3. hard to write well. 4.my opinion, if you want to improve your writing, you can do 5. following things.
First, do some study with useful expressions and sentence structures.6.(try) to make some sentences with them. Second, read as much as possible. There are many things 7. can’t be learned at a time. You must see them many times. So in order 8. (write) well, you must learn to read much. 9. (final), you’d better recite some good passages.
By the way, a meeting 10. (hold) next week in our class to discuss the problems. Welcome to it!
Good luck!

How to stay focused in class
1. No matter how much you want to sit with your friends during the class, try your best to stay away from them. Talking with friends is not going to help you stay focused (集中注意力的) in class and will cause trouble, too.
Look at the teacher. Your teacher is not just standing up there talking — they’re trying to give you an acceptable education. Show the teacher that he or she has your full attention, by looking him or her in the eye. 2.
Take notes. By taking notes, you’ll be able to “get into” the lesson. 3. Listen for key phrases such as, “This is important,” “This is the main idea,” etc. This can help you listen more carefully; you’ll have something to do and focus on.
Join in class discussions. This is a wonderful way to become a more focused, successful student. When a teacher asks a question, offer to answer it. 4. This shows the teacher that you’re listening carefully during the class.
Ask a question. 5. This really shows your teacher that you want to be better, and can recognize the things you’re having difficulty with. Maybe someone else in the class has the same question but he or she is too afraid to ask. When the question is asked by you, he or she will be relaxed and so will you.
A. Do your best.
B. Don’t sit with friends.
C. Don’t try to finish your homework in class.
D. This person should have your full attention at all times in class.
E. Write down key points as your teacher speaks.
F. If you don’t understand something, never be afraid to ask.
G. When he or she asks for an opinion, share your own.
