"The state's summer camps could open(7) June," Beth Bye, the leader of the Connecticut Office of Early Childhood, said a week ago."But there need to be (8) (strict) health rules than ever. Most programs will not (9) (allow) to have more than 30 kids."
Bye added that camps are important for both kids and(10) (parent). "For many families," she told the New York Times, ""summer camp is their childcare. "
Dear sir,
I ordered a skirt from you last month, but there are some problems with it. First, the color is not as green as it is shown on your website.I understand that the picture does not always show the real color,but it should nor be that different. Second, I asked for Size M because it is the size I usually wear.But your Size M is so small that I have to give it to my younger sister.
I think you should be more serious about your business.
Truly,
Susan Rosen

The World Tourism Organization says that space will soon become a popular place to go on holiday﹣possibly by 2020.One Japanese company is planning a space holiday centre.It will look like a bicycle wheel and have a very modern hotel for 100 people and a park.It will travel round the Earth at a height of 300km.The company hopes the centre will be ready in 2017.The company manager says he thinks that flying to the centre will probably be quicker than flying from Hong Kong to Singapore.After they arrive at the centre,tourists can take trips to the moon or go for walks in space.What about the cost?Well,the company believes that people will be happy to pay about $100,000f or a trip.But they think that as more people want to go,the trip will become much cheaper.
An American company is also thinking of building a very modern hotel,called the Lunar Hotel,on the moon.Most of the hotel will be under the ground,so it won't become too hot ortoo cold.The rooms will look just like they do on Earth.The guests will eat normal food for lunch.The cooks will just push a button(按钮) to mix dried food with water to become a meal!There will be little or no dirt(尘土) and there won't be much water.So the hotel won't wash the towels and sheets(床单)﹣they will be thrown away.
