Dear Jack，
I had a very unusual experience on Sunday. At around ten o'clock in the morning, I was walking down the street when a UFO landed right in front of me. You can imagine how strange it was! An alient got out and walked down Center Street. I followed it to see where it was going， and was very surprised when it went into a souvenir shop. While it was looking at the souvenirs, the shop assistant called the police. Before the police arrived, the alien left the shop and then visited the Museum of Flight. While the alien was in the museum, I called the TV station.Isn't that amazing!

亲爱的杰克：
星期天我有一次非常不寻常的经历。早上大约十点钟，我正在散步的时候，一架飞碟停在了我的前方。你可以想象那是多么的奇怪啊！一个外星人走出来，走在了中央大街上。我跟着他想看看他要去哪，当他走进一家纪念品店的时候我感到很惊讶。当他正看纪念品的时候，售货员报警了。在警察到达以前，外星人离开了商店，去参观航天博物馆厂。当外星人在博物馆的时候，我打电话通知了电视台。那是多么令人惊奇呀！

called the police. While she was talking on the telephone, Davy met another dog outside the station. While the police were coming, Linda Walked around the station and called Davy's name. She didn't think about looking outside the station. Finally, a little boy said to her, “Did you look outside? I saw a big black dog when I came in.” When Linda finally saw Davy, he was jumping and running with another dog. There was a police officer next to them. The police officer said to Linda, “I think my dog found your dog.”
琳达·雅克布斯非常喜欢她的狗——戴维。上周六他们去纽约了。当琳达正在火车站买报纸时，那只狗从箱子里出来跑了。车站里很拥挤，琳达哪儿都看不到戴维。当琳达喊他名字时，一些人看着她，可是戴维没回来。后来她打电话报警了。当她打电话时，戴维在火车站外遇到了另一只狗。警察来时，琳达走遍了火车站，并喊着戴维的名字。她没想到去车站外面找。最后一个小男孩对她说：“你到外面找过吗？我进来时看到一条大黑狗。”最后当琳达找到戴维时，他正跟另一只狗在追逐嬉戏。他们旁边有一名警察。那位警察对琳达说：“我想是我的狗找到了你的狗。”
Reading Do you remember what you were doing?
People often remember what they were doing when they heard the news of important events in history. In the United States, for example, many people remember what they were doing on April 4th, 1968. This was one of most important events in modern American history. On this day, Dr Martin Luther King was killed in the city of Memphis in America. Although some people may not remember who murdered him, they remember what they were doing when they heard about the event. Even the most everyday activities can seem important. Robert Allen is now over 40. He was just a school student at that time, but he remembers what he was doing when he heard the news. “It was a bright, sunny day.”Robert remembers. “We were having fun in the playground when the bell rang. Our teacher asked us to stop what we were doing and listen. He told us the news: Dr Martin Luther King died just 10 minutes ago! We couldn't believe it !”School closed for the day, and Robert and his friends walked home together in silence.
Dr Martin Luther King's murder took place about thirty years ago, before many

Americans were born. However, in more recent times, most Americans remember what they were doing when the World Trade Center in New York was destroyed by terrorists. Even the date—September 11, 2001—has meaning to most Americans.
Not all events in history are as terrible as this, of course. Many Americans also say they remember what they were doing when man first walked on the moon on July 20, 1969. In more recent history, most Chinese remember what they were doing when Yang Liwei became the first Chinese astronaut in space. Yang went into space on October 15, 2003. His flight around the Earth lasted 22 hours. When he returned, he became a national hero in China, and became famous all over the world.
你记得当时正在干什么吗？
人们常常记得当听到历史上的重要事件的消息时正在做什么。例如，在美国，很多人记得他们正在 1968年4月4日所做的事情。这是在现代美国历史上的非常重要的事件之一。这一天，马丁路德·金博士在美国的孟菲斯市被杀害。虽然一些人可能不记得是谁谋杀了他，但是他们记得在他们听到这事件的时候他们正做什么。即使是最普通的日常活动看起来也是很重要的。罗伯特·艾伦现在超过40岁了。他那时只是一个学校学生，但是他记得在他听到这消息时他正做什么。“那是个阳光明媚晴朗的一天。”罗伯特回忆说，“当铃响时，我们正在运动场上玩得很开心。我们的老师要我们停下来听他讲。他告诉了我们那个消息；马丁路德·金博士就在10分钟以前去世了!我们简直无法相信!”当天学校关了门，罗伯特和他的朋友一同静静地走回了家。
马丁路德·金博士被杀的事件大约发生在30年前，即很多美国人出生之前。不过，在更近的时代，大多数美国人还记得当纽约的世贸中心被恐怖分子毁坏的时候他们正在做什么。即使是2001年9月11日这个日期对多数美国人也是有意义的。
当然，历史上的事件并非都这么可怕。很多美国人也说他们记得1969年7月20日当人类首次在月球上行走时他们正做什么。在更新近的历史上，大多数中国人还记得当杨利伟成为中国第一太空宇航员的时候他们正在做什么。杨在2003年10月15日进入太空，绕地球飞行22个小时。当他回来时，他在中国已经成为了一名国家英雄，并且闻名全世界。

Dear grandma，
How's it going? I hope that grandpa is well now. I was sorry to hear that he had a cold last week. I hope you are in good health.
Things are fine here. I finished my end-of- year exams last week， and got my report card today.
I always get nervous when I see the envelope from school in the mai, but luckily I did OK this time. I had a really hard time with science this semester, and I wasn't surprised to find that my worst report was from my science teacher. She said I was lazy, which isn't true. It's just that I find science really difficult. Another disappointing result was in history. My history teacher said I could do better. The good news is that my math teacher said I was hard-working. And my Spanish teacher said my listening was good. Well, that's about all the news I have for now. Mom and Dad send their love.
Love, Alan
亲爱的奶奶：
一切还好吗？我希望爷爷现在身体健康。听说上周他感冒了我很担心。我希望你身体健康。
我在这一切都好。上周我们结束了年终考试并且今天我拿到了成绩单。
每当我从信箱里看到来自学校的信封时我都很紧张，但幸运的是这次我考得挺好。这学期我的自然科学学习得很困难。我不奇怪地发现较差的评价都是自然科学老师给我的。她说我懒，那不是真的。那只是因为我发现自然科学真的很难。另一个不如意的成绩是历史。我的历史老师说我能考得更好。好消息是我的数学老师说我很努力。我的西班牙语老师说我的听力很好。这就是我现在的全部情况。

妈妈和爸爸向您问好。 Self Check — 2
My best friend is Xiao Li, but last week in school we had a big fight, and she didn't talk to me. It all started when she asked me it she could copy my homework. I asked her why she wanted to do that, and she said that she had forgotten to go hers. I said I didn't think it was a good idea for her to copy my homework. She wanted to know why I didn't think It was a good idea. I said it would start a bad habit, and that she should do her own work. She got really mad at me, and said she didn't wan to be my best friend anymore. I said that was OK and that I was sure she would get over it. And she did. Yesterday she told me she was sorry. She said it was much better if she did her own work.
我最好的好朋友是晓丽，但上周在学校我们打架了，而她不同我说话了。这件事起因于她问我她是否能抄我的作业。我问她为什么想那样做，她说她忘记做作业了。我说我认为抄我的作业对她来说并不是个好主意。她想知道为什么我认为那不是个好主意。我说那样会养成一个坏习惯，她应该自己做。她真的生我气了，而且她还说她不想再做我的好朋友了。我说那样很好，而且我确信她会明白过来的。她做到了。昨天她为她向我道歉了。她说自己做作业要好得多。 Reading She said helping others changed her life.
Teaching high school students in a poor mountain village in Gansu Province may not sound like fun to you. However, it changed the life of Yang Lei from Beijing. The Peking University graduate first went there as a volunteer on a one—year program. The program was started by the Ministry of Education and the Chinese Young Pioneers. Every year they send 100 volunteers to teach in China's rural areas.
Life in the mountains was a new experience for Yang Lei. Her village was 2, 000 meters ahove sea level, and at first the thin air made her feel sick. The food was very simple—teachers ate porridge three times a day. Fortunately, Yang Lei's mother agreed with her. She said that both she and her husband thought this was a good idea. “Young people today need to experience different things.”she said.
Most of the pupils live in school dormitories. They work very hard. They get up at 5am and read books until 11pm. They love having the volunteer teachers there.
“There is no difference between you and them,”says Yang Lei. “They say that we are like big brothers or sisters to them, and they feel lucky.”
Some of the students may not be able to go to senior high school or college. Families are poor and there often isn't money for education. “I can't do anything about that.”says Yang Lei,“but I can open up my students' eyes to the outside world and give them a good start in life.” She said she likes being a good influence in the children's lives.
Yang Lei enjoyed her time as a volunteer very much. When her year was over， she said that she would return to the area after finishing her studies. She now works as a math teacher at a high school in the city of Pingliang, Gansu Province.
她说帮助别人改变了她的生活。
在甘肃省的一个贫穷的山村教中学生对你来说可能听上去没有什么乐趣。不过，它改变了来自北京的杨蕾的生活。北京大学毕业生首先作为在一个一年计划中的志愿者去那里。这项活动是由教育部和中国少先队发起的。每年他们派100位志愿者到中国的农村地区去任教。
山中的生活是杨蕾的一次新的经历。她的村庄海拔是2，000米，起初稀薄的空气使她觉得不舒服。食品非常简单——教师一天3次都是吃粥。幸好，杨蕾的母亲支持她。她说她和她的丈夫认为这是一种好的想法。“今天的年轻人有必要经历不同的事情。”她说。
大多数小学生住在学校宿舍里。他们学习很刻苦。他们早晨5点起床一直学到晚上11点。他们喜欢志愿教师到他们那里去。“你和他们之间没有差别，”杨蕾说，“他们说我们看起来就像他们的大哥哥大姐姐，并且他们感到很幸运。”
一些学生可能不能上高中或者大学。家庭贫穷，通常也没有钱来接受教育。“我对此无能为力，”杨蕾说，“但是我能让我的学生开扩眼界，并且给他们一个生活的好起点”，她说她喜欢给孩子们的一生留下好的影响。
杨蕾很享受她作为一位志愿者的日子。一年的志愿生活结束时，她说在完成她的研究之后，她将返回该地区。她现在是甘肃省平凉市某高中的一名数学教师。
