Sandy is thinking about getting a pet. She is reading these articles on a website.

A dog's life My name is Lucky. I am two years old. I am a 30-kg yellow dog. I am very friendly but some people are afraid of me. They think I am too big. My owner is my best friend. He takes me for a walk three times a day. He takes me to the park at the weekend and he takes me to the beach in summer. He does not like rainy days because I will get very wet and he will have to give me a shower. I like taking showers because I like chasing the towel when he dries me after a shower. I never fight or bite but I bark when someone touches my food. I can play many tricks but only when people give me biscuits. A cat's life My name is Dolly. I live next to Lucky. I am three years old. I am a 4-kg white cat. I love jumping onto the sofa or the window-ledge. I love watching people from my windows. I can see Lucky in the streets every day. I do not like going out because it is very dirty outside. I miaow when my bowl is empty. If you cannot find me, look into the cupboard or a cardboard box. I like sleeping in them. A goldfish's life My name is Yellow Tail. I live in a tank with five friends. I do not do much. I only swim, eat and sleep. My owners do not play with me. They only watch me. I like swimming in front of them. I do not like to be fish. I want to be Lucky. His owner takes him everywhere. I want to be Dolly, too. Her owners let her sit on their laps every evening. She is always very clean.

Sandy is talking to her mother about the pets on the website. Her mother is asking her questions about them. Help her answer the questions.

(3)	Where does Dolly like sleeping? A. On the window-ledge. B. In the cupboard. C. On the table.	(4)	How many fish are there in the tank? A. Five. B. Six. C. Seven.

When we talk about the climate（气候）of the UK, you may think of f   1   London and rainy weather. Actually, after many years, London is not as foggy as it used to be because the government is trying their best to solve the p  2   of air pollution, which is the major(主要的) r   3  of the thick fog in London.
However, it is t  4   that it often rains in the UK and the weather always changes quickly. Maybe you wish to play tennis with your friend after work when you see the beautiful sunshine in the morning, but suddenly the wind comes and it r  5  when you go to work.
The difference in temperature b  6  winter and s   7   is not so great in the UK as in China. The average（平均的）t  8   for winter is about 4.5℃, and for summer about 15.5℃.
And the best time to visit the country is in summer. It is often s   9  and you can enjoy outdoor sports and have a picnic h 10   in such weather.

Come to Austria(奥地利) Soll is a village in the mountains in western Austria. And the Post Hotel is clean and not expensive. It is opened by a local family. From the hotel you can see the whole village, the forests and the mountains. Temperatures in summer are usually 20 to 25 in the daytime, but much cooler by evening.

And you can pay for them when you sit in your boat. Don’t forget your hat: the sun can be strong and it may be as hot as 40 at noon.

 

Visit Hawaii! Maybe the most beautiful place in Hawaii is Kauai. You can visit its long, sandy beaches in the south and west of the island, and mountains and forests in the north, but don’t be surprised if it rains in the centre of the island. Daytime temperatures there are usually around 24 to 26 by the sea, and only a little cooler by late evening.

Why should we learn to swim?
Firstly, swimming is a good exercise for our health. Indeed doctors say it is the best exercise, because in swimming all the muscles of the body are used.
Secondly, swimming gives great pleasure. How nice it is, on a hot dusty day in summer, to take off one’s clothes and dive into the cool water of a rive or the sea, and to swim and float until one feels enough.
Thirdly, swimming may sometimes mean all the different between life and death, we never know when we may be in danger from water. We got on a voyage, and the ship in wrecked; we go for a pleasure sail on a lake and the boat turns over; we slip as we are walking along the bank of a river, and half in the water. If we can swim, we have chance for saving our own lives, but if we cannot swim, we are pretty certain to be drowned. So for our own safety, we should learn to swim.
Lastly, if we can swim, we may be able to save other people from drowning. How sad it is to see a friend drowning before our eyes while we cannot help just because we cannot swim.
11.Who says that swimming is the best exercise?  _________.
A. Farmers          B. Dentists     C. Fishermen            D. Doctors
12.When swimming, ________.
A. We don’t move at all                 B. all the muscle of the body are used
C. we move our legs only                D. we drink lots of seawater into our stomach
13.Swimming ­­­­________.
A. gives great pain                     B. gives no pleasure   
C. gives much pleasure                  D. does harm to the body
14.If we can swim, ________.
A. we are no longer humans, but fish         B. we shall be drowned one day
C. we have a chance of saving our own lives   D. we can’t walk any more
15.If we can swim, ________.
A. we may be able to help others from drowning 
B. we can’t save others from drowning
C. it is pretty danger certain that we will get drowned
