    Hearst Castle is in California, America. A person called William Randolph Hearst built it between 1922 and 1939, at a cost of more than $30 million. Last year, I had a trip to that castle.

    I spent the whole day looking around. But there was much to see, and a day wasn’t enough. Hearst Castle has four houses. The main house, “Casa Grande”, is the biggest one. Visitors can live in the other three ones. Many of them are Hollywood film stars, and they often come to the parties there.

    At Hearst Castle, there are also beautiful gardens and two swimming pools, one inside and a larger one outside. I loved the one outside, the “Neptune Pool”. It was a pity that we couldn’t go swimming there!

    The guide told us that Mr. Hearst travelled around Europe with his mother at the age of ten and looked at paintings and castles. He never forgot that tour and wanted his house to look like a castle. When Mr Hearst died in 1951, his family gave Hearst Castle to the people of California. Now it’s a museum.

    A．城堡

    B．胜地

    C．城垛

    D．楼阁

          We each have a memory. That's why we can remember things after a long time.
    Some people have a very good memory and they can easily learn many things by heart,
    but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again.
         A good memory helps one learn a language well. Everybody learns his own language
    when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak.
    Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages
    easily because they hear, remember and speak the two languages every day. In school it is not
    easy to learn a foreign language because the students have little time for it and they have to learn
    other subjects, too.
         Our memory can get better and better if we do more and more exercises. Do you want to
    learn a foreign language well? If so,  you must do a lot of listening and speaking.
