Dear workmates,
We hope you all had a great summer. Ours was a lot of fun. We saw so many new things and met so many wonderful people. The French gave us a warm welcome and helped us a lot. We have so many things to share with all of you.
We had a great time seeing the Tour de France this summer. It is the most famous bicycle race (比赛) in the world. The riders travel more than two thousand miles in about a month. We got a quick look at the riders as they rode past! After the race, our family rented (租借) bikes, and rode along part of the way that the riders used.
Do the French really eat snails (蜗牛)? The answer is yes. We went out to have dinner the other day, and our parents bo ught some. We each tried one and it didn’t taste too bad. My mother’s favourite food here is the French pastries (糕点). My father loves the red wine (葡萄酒). Our
favourite is the fresh bread from the shop down the street.
We went to visit the Eiffel Tower a few weeks ago. We went all the way to the top. It was a sunny day, so we could see farther away. Dad is afraid of heights, so he stayed at the foot of the tower and took pictures from the ground. Email us and let us know what is new at home.

I work as a volunteer for a group that helps the poor in Haiti (海地). I decided to take my son Brain there for a week, hoping that he would learn something.
Before getting out, I told Brain this trip would be tiring and hard. For the first two days, he said almost nothing. Then on the third day, when we were climbing over high rocky mountains, he turned to me and smiled, “Really hard.”
After that, a five-year-old girl, wearing too large a dress and broken shoes, followed Brain around. Later he said. “I wish I could speak French.” I was surprised becaus e he always hated French classes.
However, the moment that really reached my heart occurred in a village in the mountains (高山). I was interviewing (采访) a woman villager for an article. By working hard, she learned to read and write and became one of the leaders of the village.
Learning about her story, Brain was greatly touched (感动). His eyes were wet and there was love and respect (尊重) on his face. He finally understood the importance of my work. When leaving for home, Brain even offered to stay in as a volunteer. This trip really meant a lot to both of us.
6. Why did the writer take his son to Haiti?
A. Because they wanted to take a trip there.
B. Because they went there to visit a friend.
C. Because his son wanted to help the poor there.
D. Because the writer thought it could be a lesson to his son.
7. What does the underlined word “occurred” mean?
A. left
B. offered
C. happened
D. reached
8. What did Brain NOT learn from this trip?
A. To love and respect poor people.
B. To be a humorous person.
C. To offer help to people in need.
D. To be a kind and hard-working man.
9. Why did Brain wish he could speak French?
A. Because he wanted to talk to the little girl.
B. Because he enjoyed the trip a lot.
C. Because he decided to help others.
D. Because he didn’t follow his father.
10. What is the passage mainly about?
A. An exciting trip.
B. How to be a volunteer.
C. A story of a volunteering trip.
D. A great father.

Hobbies are activities we do in our free time. There are so many kinds of hobbies one can choose. Some hobbies are really expensive, and some are even dangerous.
The most popular hobbies in our country are as follows:
Collecting hobbies
We can collect a lot of things. Usually people collect stamps, postcards or coins (钱币). Some people collect unusual things like old cars, old motorbikes or other interesting things. They could cost a lot.
Art hobbies
Some people like going to the theatre, concert (音乐会), or opera. Some people like playing some instruments (乐器). And others enjoy painting and writing. There are many clubs like singing and dancing clubs.
Sports hobbies
Everybody does some sports activities — sport can keep us fit. Many students are members of a sports club — basketball, volleyball or swimming.
Other popular hobbies include (包括) watching TV or a video, playing computer or video games, but these are not so good for your eyes and your mind. Many people like to spend their free time reading books, magazines and newspapers. Some people like listening to music better.
Many students would like to make use of their hobbies in their future jobs, e.g. working by computer, but it is not so easy. Hobbies are very important for everybody. A man would be very poor if he didn’t have a hobby and he would not be happy.
