Dear Harry,
I’m writing to invite you to celebrate the Kite Festival on our school playground, which will be a feast for your eyes.
The festival lasts two days, from April 11 to 12, during which time a wide variety of kites will be on display. Besides, some kite experts will make kites on the spot, so you can get hands-on experience and know about the theory of kite flying. The most exciting moment should be when you are flying kites. Seeing the flying kites in the sky will relax your eyes and clear your mind.
Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

W: We’d like to send you to a ship company in Shanghai on a business trip this weekend. You’ll get on the train tonight at 7 pm.

W: But we’ve bought the return ticket for you.

M: I hate carrying that umbrella around. The weatherman said there was a twenty-percent chance
of rain. But it didn’t rain a drop.
W: Twenty percent means zero percent.

Text 5
M: We are going to have a general cleaning after school.
W: Oh, but we usually do it every Wednesday, so why don’t we do it tomorrow just as usual?
Text 6
M: Hello, do you remember me? I bought some vases from you yesterday.
W: Yes, you said you wanted to send them to your girlfriend, right?
M: That’s right. I’ve come back to buy some more souvenirs for myself.
W: What do you have in mind?
M: Well, my sister used to send postcards to herself wherever she went. I want to do that, too.
Text 7
M: You haven’t spent much time with Sophia lately. What’s up?
W: We’ve not been that close for a while.
M: But you two used to do everything together. I thought you really enjoyed each other’s company.
W: We did, but that was before she started her new job, and now all she does is hang out with her new friends from work.
M: It can’t be that bad. She was always a really good friend to you. She’s probably just excited about her new job. You should give her some time.
W: But I think she shows no interest in our friendship any more. I just have to accept the fact that it’s time for us to go our separate ways.
Text 8
W: Do you have a minute, Mr. Johnson?
M: Sure, what would you like to discuss?
W: I’ve made a tough decision to resign, sir.
M: Well, I have to tell you that I’m quite surprised. Is there any possible way to change your mind?
W: I’m afraid not, sir. I’ve made up my mind. It’s something I have to do.
M: Can I ask why? Were you unhappy working for us or have you been given a better offer?
W: Oh, no. It’s my mother. She’s sick and needs someone to take care of her. I’m the only one who
can do it.
M: I’m sorry to hear that, but why don’t you just take a leave of absence? We can hold the job for
you until your mother gets better.

Text 9
M: Hi, Ellen! Is this your new bike?
W: Yes, I bought it yesterday.
M: It’s cool! May I have a try?
W: Of course. Remember to ride on the left.
M: Oh, I think it’ll take me some time to get used to it. You know, in my country, we should drive, ride and walk on the right.
W: Well, it could be dangerous if you break the rules.
M: OK, I see. By the way, why do so many people travel by bike in Cambridge?
W: You see, Cambridge City is small and flat. Besides, the colleges of Cambridge University spread around every corner of the city. Riding a bike between lectures is convenient.
M: And it is also environmentally friendly.
W: That’s right. Since riding a bike is the most common way, there are a lot of riding regulations.
M: For example?
W: People under 18 or above 60 should wear a helmet when they ride, and a bike should be equipped with two lights. A little troublesome, but it’s safe.
M: I agree. I have noticed that people just leave their bikes casually.
W: Yes. That’s why many bikes have been stolen.
M: Then you should remember to lock your bike.
W: I will.
Text 10
I’m Emile Ratelband, a television host in the city of Arnhem, Holland. Now my age is having a bad effect on both my work and life. So I went to court to get my birth year legally changed from 1949 to 1969 and I self-identified as 20 years younger. The reason why I did so is that I want to avoid age discrimination. When I asked to borrow money from a bank or change my job, I was told it was almost impossible because of my age. I firmly believe that with the freedom of choosing my name, I want to choose my own age. I want to control myself. Besides, the Dutch government could benefit if it were to accept my demand. I would be happy to give up my monthly pension of around $1,370. That would be a savings of $343,000 over 20 years for the government. The city court is expected to give an official decision in about four weeks. And I’m waiting for that, but I’m not quite sure about their approval.
