Dear Mr President,
I have been doing a project at school recently about animals in danger. I think their living c 1. is terrible in China. I am writing to you to suggest w 2. we should do to help protect animals more. I feel so s___3.___for the giant panda.It’s one of the most popular animals in the world and a s___4.___ of China. We’ve learned that pandas mainly live on bamboo. I think we should try to do more to p 5. people from destroying their forests.
Another animal we should try to protect more is the Chinese alligator(扬子鳄). They live in some a 6. of eastern China, and now the water there isn’t c 7. enough for them to live in. The government should stop factories from p 8. the lakes and rivers.
If we protect these beautiful animals in China, more people may wish to visit China to see them. They could be an important t 9. attraction. It would be good if more people came to visit our beautiful country, e 10. some quieter places in the country.
I hope you will encourage more people to think about such an important subject.
Yours sincerely,

As a teenager, you’re trying to learn who you are. You’re going through mental and physical changes. You’re dealing with different kinds of stress and trying to succeed in school.
The good news is that though the teen years are tough, there are skills you can learn to make them a lot easier.
If you’re a teen and trying to manage your feelings better, here are a few skills for you to deal with your feelings.
Name the feeling.
What feeling are you experiencing? For example, are you sad, stressed. Angry, joyful or excited?
Accept what you’re feeling.
Many people worry that their feelings will increase. So they are not willing to accept them, hoping that they’ll just go away. However, that’s impossible. Remind yourself that it’s OK to feel your feelings.
Become familiar with your feelings.
To better understand your feelings, you should pay attention to your feelings all over the day. You may record how you’re feeling in the morning, afternoon and at night on a piece of paper. Next to your feeling, also write down where you notice it in your body.
Express your feelings.
Expressing a feeling is a good way to reduce it. For example, you can express your feelings by crying, exercising, writing about them or talking to someone you trust. Just be sure that whatever activity you choose, it doesn’t hurt you or anyone else.
At different times in your life, you’ll experience different difficulties. But by learning some helpful skills, you’ll be able to live a comfortable life.

My name is Jim. My story begins when an old sailor came to the inn(小旅馆)where I lived with my father. My father was the innkeeper.
“Do many people came here?” the old sailor asked my father.
“No,” my father told him. “It is a very quiet place.”
“Good,” the old sailor said. “Then this is a place for me.”
“And what’s your name, sir?” my father asked him.
“Just call me ‘captain’”, the man said.
He put some gold coins on the table. “Tell me when I have spent all these,” he said.
Not long after he came to the inn, the captain said to me, “Do you want to earn some money?”
“Yes, please,” I answered. I was only a boy at the time and never had any money. “What do you want me to do?”
“Keep watch for a man with one leg.” he said, “Tell me as soon as you see him. Do that and I’ll give you a coin every week.”
At first, the Captain was a very quiet man and did not want to talk to anyone. But there were nights when he drank a lot of rum. Then he talked a lot and became very noisy. He told stories about bad men doing bad things, and he sang the same song over and over again at the top of his voice, “Fifteen men on the dead man’s chest. Yo-hap-ho! And a bottle of rum.”
My father wanted him to leave because some visitors stopped coming to the inn. But, even when the gold was spent, my father didn’t dare to tell him to leave.
Then father became ill, and Dr. Livesey came to see him. After giving my father some medicine, the doctor came into the inn. When the doctor waited for a man to bring his horse. The Captain started singing the same song again.
The doctor asked him to be quiet. “There was a sick man here,” he said angrily.
The Captain took out his knife and pointed it at the doctor.
“Put that knife down, man,” the doctor said. “And if you keep drinking rum, you’ll soon be dead.”
The Captain was very angry. He began to move toward the doctor.
“Keep away from me. If you do anything bad, you’ll be in trouble.” said the doctor.
Then the doctor’s horse came, and he rode away from the inn. For a few days after this, the Captain was quiet.
