Dear Editor,
     I'm confused these days. We are taught at home and at school that violence (暴力) is bad. For example,
last week, my friend and I were playing at the beach. We found a really beautiful shell. My friend picked it up,
but I saw it first, and I said it was mine. He said, no, it was his. I really want the shell, and I even thought
about hitting him, that's how angry I was.
     Now should that be right? No! I shouldn't use violence. I should talk with my friend instead, and solve
that. My parents and teachers often tell me that using violence is the least civilized (文明)way to solve
problems.
     So, if adults had a disagreement, and if they used violence toward each other in order to win, is it all
right? No!
     Now, I'm confused. When two countries disagree, they often use violence. They fight a war. Using
violence is not okey at home, at school, or in your country but okey between two countries, why?
     A war is extreme violence. So not only soldiers but citizens (公民), including small children and babies
have been killed and injured because of wars.
     Adults say they are fighting wars in order to solve problems and make peace.But can you really "make
peace" by using violence and killing so many people?
     I don't think that bombs and missiles (炸彈和導彈) can reach people's hearts and change them. Bombs
and missiles can't create love and caring,and that's what we need in the world. Why can't they use their
wisdom (智慧) and talk it over?
1. What happened to Joshua and his friend last week at the beach?
A. They had a fight.
B. Joshua hit his friend.
C. They had a class about violence.
D. They found a beautiful shell
2. How should we solve problems according to this letter?
A. We should argue about the problems
B. We should study at school.
C. We should use our wisdom and talk them over.
D. We should use violence.
3. Which opinion is mentioned in the letter?
A. Violence can solve the problems.
B. We should fight wars.
C. A war is extreme violence.
D. Bombs and missiles can reach people's hearts.
4. What does the sentence "Bombs and missiles can't create love and caring, and that's what
    we need in the world." mean?
A. We need to use violence to solve problems.
B. What we need is bombs and missiles.
C. We need bombs and missiles to create love and caring.
D. What we need in the world is love and caring.
5. What's the letter about? It's about _______.
A. Joshua's thoughts about wars
B. Joshua's story
C. hate and love
D. arguments

visited the Great Wall and was deeply impressed by its length.I had never seen such a great wall before!
Walking less than a mile on the wall made me very tired,but I was very excited.I used up three camera
films in four hours.
     Shopping was another interesting part of the trip.In the Silk Market, I bought a cotton shirt for just a
quarter of the price the trader asked for.
     I have too many memories and experiences to share. I am so lucky to have been such a culture so
diffedent from my own. I will remember my trip to China forever!

Dear Zhang Hua, 
      Have you ever been to Thailand? It is a country in Southeast Asia. I've been in Thailand for a few days
with my parents. We are here for a holiday.
      Now we are staying in Bangkok(曼谷). It is the capital of Thailand and it is a very interesting place to
visit. Yesterday we visited some places of interest in the city. They are great! This morning we went shopping.
Bangkok is a wonderful place to shop for jewelry(珠寶)and clothes. My mother bought a nice necklace(項鏈).
My father and I bought some fashionable T-shirts.
      Thailand is called "Land of Smiles" because people here are very friendly. And it's true! When we eat in
the restaurants in Bangkok, the waiters are really nice and they are always smiling. Thai food is delicious, but
it is sometimes a little spicy for me. You can also get Chinese food here because a lot of Chinese people came
to live in Bangkok many years ago. Chinese food is very good, and it isn't as spicy as Thai food. Our American
food can also be found in Bangkok, however, I don't eat it. You know, I'd like to try new things when I travel.
      The weather has been very hot. Yesterday it rained and got a little cooler. But today it's hot again.
                                                                                                                       Yours,
                                                                                                                       Mary
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,補全下列句子。每空詞數(shù)不限。
1. Thailand is in ______ and it is called ______.
2. Most tourists go to buy ______ and ______ in Bangkok.
3. Mary thinks ______ is spicier than ______.
4. Mary doesn't eat ______food in Bangkok because she wants to ______ when she travels.
