Many people like to travel by plane, but I don’t like it because the airport is usually far from the city.
You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off and it is often late. You can’t open
the windows. You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to go out of the airport
and into the city.
I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late
for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can
see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time. I also like cars. You can start
your journey when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road. |

Famous for its coat of reddish orange with dark stripes, the tiger is the largest wild cat in the world.
Unlike lions, adult tigers like to live alone. Each tiger has its own territory. It doesn"t like other tigers to
enter its space. If one does, you can hear the tiger"s roar(咆哮) for miles.
Tigers wait until dark to hunt. Once a tiger has found its prey, it gets as close as possible. Then the
tiger pulls the animal off its feet with its sharp teeth and claws (爪 子) and kills the prey by biting its
neck.
Tigers love eating meat. After eating a lot, they often do not need to eat again for several days.
Large deer make up nearly three- fourths of a tiger"s food. They also prey on wild pigs and cows.
Did you know how useful a tiger"s tail is? It is almost half as long as its whole body and very good
at keeping the tiger"s balace when it runs after prey. |

Starting a new school term is always exciting. It is a chance to see your friends again. But most exciting
of all, the new term is a chance to take up new hobbies. It is common in Britain for students to take up
new hobbies after the Christmas holidays. Deciding to start something new is a common New Year plan.
Most schools provide different kinds of hobby classes. Students take them in their free periods or after
school. Some classes you have to pay for and others are free. For example, I once took a free
Wednesday evening gymnastics (体操) class in my school. But when I learnt how to play the drum (鼓)
my parents had to pay for the lessons.
The most popular hobby classes at my school were piano lessons and drama club. Both classes offered
exams students could take. Students with many hobbies sometimes felt more stressed than those without
any. But the students with hobbies left school with some more skills.
I haven"t continued any of the hobbies I began at school. But I have never regretted (遗憾、懊悔)
taking them. My best friend today is someone I met in my gymnastics class. |

Anne and Joseph are talking about an interesting question. Why do some people change their
names? There can be many reasons. Hanna changed her name to Anne because she thought it
would be easier for people to remember. On the other hand, Joseph is thinking about changing his
name to an unusual name because he wants to be different.
People have a lot of reasons for changing their names. Film stars, singers, sportsmen and some
other famous people often change their names because they want names that are not ordinary, or
that have special sound. They chose the "new name" for themselves instead of the name their parents
gave them when they were born.
Some people have another reason for changing their names. They have moved to a new country
and want to use a name that is usual there. For example, Li Kaiming changed his name to Ken Lee
when he moved to the United States. He uses the name Ken at his job and at school. But with his
family and Chinese friends, he uses Li Kaiming. For some people, using different names makes life
easier in their new country.
In many countries, a woman changes her family name to her husband"s after she gets married
(结婚). But today, many women are keeping their own family name and not using their husband"s.
Sometimes, women use their own name in some situations(情况) and their husband"s in other
situations. And some use both their own name and their husband"s. |
