| Going to a friend's house is very exciting. You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he lives. So remember to be polite. When to arrive The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come "around 3:00", that means you can turn up a little bit after 3:00. But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time. What to bring Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend's house. This could be a box of chocolates for you two to share, or maybe a movie that you can watch together. You can also bring some flowers. A little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house. How to greet When you visit your friend's house, you may also meet his parents. You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I called his parents by their first names John and Mary. But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr. or Mrs. Smith. This will show them more respect and then they may tell you to call them by their first names. Another way to show respect is to call them Madam or Sir. It is a cool thing to visit a friend's house. Be polite to your friend and your friend's parents, and you will be invited again! |

| Some teenagers think that newspapers are boring and only for adults. But that's not true. There are many interesting stories in the paper. You just need to make clear what you are looking at. "I spend about half an hour reading newspapers every day," said 15-year-old Gao Ming from Beijing. "I'm interested in things happening at school." School news is just one kind of news story in newspapers. There's also world news: from international problems to pop stars. Read the newspaper carefully, we'll find different types of articles on the pages: News stories-these stories are about events. Reporters try to show all points of a story to help readers understand what happened. Reporters try to speak to as many people as possible. They also use pictures and numbers to show the readers that the stories are true. The newspaper Teenagers has lots of news stories on the news page and front page. When we read them, we learn more about the facts, not the writers' ideas. Opinion writing-opinion writing is usually about something happening right now. But it isn't just facts. Here writers add their own opinions to the news. Writers pick only the facts that help back up their ideas. They make readers believe that they are telling the truth. This is usually the kind of story that gets people thinking. Go to "Speak Out" on Page Two for an example of opinion writing in Teenagers. Advertisement-Don't get happy too early when you read them. Those sweet words and lovely pictures are just ways to get us interested in their products! People have to pay to put advertisements in newspapers! |

| Tibet is among the most popular places for Chinese tourists. The number of travelers to Tibet has grown by 10 percent every year for a few years. What is the best way to go to Tibet for tourist trip, by plane, by bus or by train? People who want to go to Tibet always ask this question. If you take the plane, you won't see the beautiful places on the way. If you take the bus, you will be very tired after the trip. If you take the train, you can enjoy the scenery along the way and sleep quite well. Now, since July 1, when the first train ran 1,956 kilometers from Xining to Lhasa, more and more people have been going to Tibet. The train stops at several famous places along the way, such as Qinghai Lake, Kunlun Mountain, and the Potala Palace. Passengers can enjoy many activities during the journey, like the Tibetan dancing and Karaoke. On the train, passengers can have tea, eggs and noodles for breakfast, and fried green vegetables and chicken for lunch. Unlike most Chinese trains which have open-hole toilets, this one has special toilets which can collect the waste. There is also a special garbage system in the train that keeps the environment clean. All the windows on the train can protect people from the bright sunlight. Other equipment, such as televisions and electrical sockets for computers and cell phones, can also be found on the train. Because there isn't much oxygen there, trains will have oxygen masks for those who need them. It makes the passengers feel more comfortable when they have enough oxygen on the famous "roof of the world". There are also doctors on the train to make sure that all of the travelers are safe. |

| Subject: Complaints Date: May 30, 2007 From: David@hotmail.com To: Glasgow@silverline.com Last Thursday, I traveled in the 8:40 am train from Glasgow to London King's Cross and I was very unhappy with the service provided by your company. The train was forty minutes later leaving Glasgow. Although the guard apologized, we were not given any reasons for the delay. We then had further delays when the train crew changed. We had to wait another thirty minutes. As a result, I missed my flight from London Heathrow to Frankfurt and had to wait for several hours. What's more, the service in the train was also very poor. The trip took over five hours. Unluckily, there was no dining car in the train and only a bar with soft drinks. The worst of all, the air conditioning broke down halfway through the trip and it got hotter and hotter in the train. However, there was no apology for this, and before we reached King's Cross, the temperature was over 40℃. In view of the poor service, I feel I am entitled to compensation. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully, David Robertson |

| China news, Xichang, Oct 19 - The Chang'e No.1 moon probe satellite took its name after a young and beautiful goddess in a traditional Chinese legend who lived in her palace on the moon with her pet rabbit. Compared with the legendary fairy maiden, the satellite, with a weight of more than 2 tons, might appear large and hefty. However, scientists believed that the satellite could fly to the moon in a graceful way during the upcoming launch, just like what the fairy maiden did as described in the legend. The main tasks facing Chang'e No.1 are to take the 3D pictures of the moon and to explore the moon surface environment. Compared with manned spacecraft Shenzhou 5 and Shenzhou 6, Chang'e No.1 is a small satellite. While scientists need to add four boosters to send Shenzhou 5 and Shenzhou 6 into space, the launch of Chang'e No.1 will not need any booster at all. Since Chang'e No.1 satellite is a small device, the loading capacity of the Chang'e satellite launch will be much lighter. In sending large satellites, the total weight of the satellite and the carrier rocket can be as many as 400 tons or more. However, Chang'e No.1 and its carrier rocket, Long March 3A, weigh only 250 tons. The Chang'e No.1 satellite will fly around the earth for a couple of times before it shifts to the moon orbit. After that, 13 monitoring devices that are placed on the earth will adjust its flying positions in space. By then, people might see that the moon probe satellite will turn swiftly in space. |
| 1. Why is the moon probe satellite named Chang'e? __________________________________________________________________ 2. What carried Chang'e to space? __________________________________________________________________ 3. What will the moon probe satellite fly around in the end? __________________________________________________________________ |

| Journalists are the people who collect information about what's happening and tell the public through television, radio, newspapers, magazines or the Internet. A journalist's life is not as great as people think. Most journalists spend a lot of time reporting boring stories. One of the exciting things about being a journalist is that journalists can suddenly find themselves in the middle of exciting events. Their task is to collect facts and try to tell all sides of a story. This includes interviewing people, getting materials, asking for experts and so on. After collecting information, reporters organize their information and write it down. After they have finished writing, they give their work to editors who review their stories and give advice. The journalists' job allows for a great deal of freedom. Although they make most of their interviews by phone, and some even by e-mail, they are also often out in the street, talking to people. Their job is full of changes, and journalists find themselves always in different places from one day to the next. On the other hand, reporting is also a job that can influence your life. When an important thing happens on a weekend, they will have to come into work and follow the story until it comes to an end. |
