Jane,
After I left Paris I spent two days in New York City and one day in Washington DC. I got to Miami, Florida on Nov. 13. The weather is wonderful here. This morning I went swimming and then slept on the beach. When I woke up, I found Jennifer Lopez—my favorite movie star! She was just on my right! I asked her to take a picture with me. You know, that was my dream. She agreed! I’m going to show you the picture.
Yours,
John
Dear Dad,
I got here after 18 hours on a train at last! It’s very cold here in Moscow. It’s white everywhere. This afternoon I went to have a look at the city. I got lost. I was glad I took Russian lessons in my university. They helped me a lot. A young girl showed me the way back to my hotel. I think I can finish my work here and go back home soon. I’m longing for the warm sunshine at home. See you soon.
Max

Tomorrow evening I’m going to fly to Beijing.

Dear Donald,
Last summer I had a chance to visit the other side of the world. | went to Beijing with my friends. I visited the Great Wall and was deeply impressed by its length. I had never seen such a great wall before! Walking less than a mile on the wall made me very tired, but I was very excited. I used up three camera films in four hours.
Shopping was another interesting part of the trip. In the Silk Market, I bought a silk shirt for just a quarter of the price the trader asked for.
I have many memories and experiences to share. I am so lucky to have seen such a culture so different from my own. I will remember my trip to china forever!
Yours,

Amanda is an American filmmaker and actress. She came to China three years ago to study Performance at Beijing Film Academy. Last month, she mto Japan to study Economics at the University of Tokyo. On June 10th, she r
to the USA. She chatted with her parents about the cultural d
between the two countries.
“The people in bcountries are very friendly to f
. But they have different cultures. For example, when I spoke Chinese in China, the people there always showed s
on their faces. But when I came to Japan, I found it was o
. Most local people there hoped I could talk with them in Japanese, t
I was not good at it,” she said.
Amanda thought this might have something to dwith the fact that the western group in Japan is o
than the one in China. They have stayed in Japan for a long time. And most of them speak Japanese well. But Westerners in China are still quite a new group. They’re usually treated as guests and tourists.
Recent research from the Pew Internet Project suggests that 90% of Americans aged from 12 to 17 use the Internet, and 51% of those teens use social networks. However, there are many possible problems with social networking sites and the teenagers who use them.
Apart from the social advantages, social networking sites can be used to record school research, develop artistic talents and experiment with other forms of subject creation. They provide a way to communicate with others who share the same interests and to get helpful advice on ongoing projects.
Along with these advantages come some dangers. For example, most social networking sites are open to all, especially MySpace, which is the most popular social network among teens in America. It means that they could be put in unpleasant and frightening situations.
A greater danger is that teens may become objects of the people with secret purposes. The secrecy of some social networking sites makes it easy for dangerous people to find young teens and invite them into dangerous conversations. It’s easy for them to pretend as teens and draw children into dangerous real-world communication as well. Then further hurt might be on its way.
Another danger is identity stealing, which can happen when teens share too much information about their names, dates of birth and locations.
Therefore, it’s very important to make sure teens are safe when they use social networks.
Many of the same rules that work for online chat work for these sites:
※ Don’t use your real name.
※ Don’t give out personal information to people you don’t know. A last name and a town are enough for a bad guy to find where you are.
※ Don’t believe that people are who they say to be.
※ Immediately end any communication that makes you uncomfortable and report it to a parent.
Only if you are sure of your safety, can you enjoy the fun brought by social networking. Besides, trying to deal with all problems on your own can lead to terrible results. Remember, asking your parents or school officials for help doesn’t mean you are unable to do anything but wiser than many others. How many dangers of using social networks are mentioned in the passage?
| A．2. | B．3. | C．4. | D．5. |
The writer takes MySpace as an example to show that ________.
| A．students could be put into unreal situations on the Internet |
| B．teenagers are facing unknown dangers on the social networks |
| C．Internet provides more social websites to American teenagers |
| D．social networks are very popular among teenagers in America |
We can infer from the passage that ________.
| A．the dangers are similar when chatting online and surfing social networks |
| B．more than half American teenagers aged from 12 to 17 use social networks |
| C．teens who ask for help are wiser when meeting problems on social networks |
| D．there are more disadvantages than advantages for teens to use social networks |
