My New Teachers
They say that first impressions are very important. My first impression of Mrs. Li was that she was nervous and shy.人们常说第一印象很重要。

李老师给我留下的第一印象是既紧张又胆怯。

I think perhaps she was, as it was her first lesson with us. But now, after two weeks, the class really likes working with her.我想，可能她就是这样，因为这是她给我们上的第一节课。

但是，过了两周了，全班学生真的喜欢上她的课。

She's kind and patient, and she explains English grammar so clearly that even I can understand it! 她非常和蔼，又有而寸心，英语语法解释得如此清楚，连我都能够明白！ She avoids making you feel stupid! I've always hated making mistakes or pronouncing a word incorrectly when I speak English,她避免让人感到愚笨！讲英语时，我总是憎恶出错或者是憎恶发音不正确，but Mrs. Li just smiles, so that you don't feel completely st叩id!但是，李老师只是笑一笑，因此，你不会感到完全愚笨！I think maybe she goes a bit too slowly for the faster students, but for me it's wonderful! I feel I'm going to make progress with her,我想可能对于好学生来说她的课进行得有点慢，但对我来说，真是太棒了！我觉得我跟着她学习肯定将取得进步。

Id guess that Mrs. Chen is almost sixty. She's very strict—we don't dare to say a word unless she asks us to. She's also very serious and doesn't smile much. 我猜想陈老师几乎快60岁了。

她很严格- 除非她让我们讲话，我们一句话也不敢说。

她还很严肃，很少
微笑。

When she asks you to do something, you do it immediately!当她要求你做某事时，你就马上去做！There are a few students in our class who keep coming to class late but they're always on time for Mrs. Chen's lessons!陈老师的课，我们班几位不断迟到的学生，总是准时上陈老师的课。

得又好。

取得进步。

Physics will never be my favourite lesson, but I think that I'll do well in the exam with Mrs Chen teaching me.物理绝对不是我最喜欢的科目，但我想由陈老师教我，我会考出好成绩。

Mr. Wu5s only been teaching us for two weeks and he's already very popular. I think this is because he really enjoys teaching Chinese literature -吴老师仅仅教过我们两个礼拜，他已经很受欢迎了。

我想这是因为他的确喜欢教中国文学he loves it, in fact! He's got so much energy, this is one class you do not fall asleep in! He's about 28,1 think, and is rather good-looking.实际上，他喜爱中国文学！他精力是那样充
沛，上他的课，你不会想睡觉（不会感到困倦）！我想他大约28岁，长得很帅。

They tried riding horses, but the horses didn't like the hot weather and sand. 他们试着骑马，但那些马不喜欢炎热的天气和沙漠。

A hundred and fifty years ago, they brought some camels from Afghanistan. Ghan is short for Afghanistan. 一百五十年前，他们从阿富汗带入了一些骆驼。

The Afghans and their camels did this until the 1920s.直到二十世纪二十年代，阿富汗人和他们的骆驼还在做着这样的工作。

Then the government built a new railway line, so they didn't need the camels any more.丹B时政府建了一条新的铁路线，所以阿富汗人不再需要骆驼了In 1925,they passed a law which allowed people to shoot the animals if they were a problem.在1925年，他们通过了法律,如果它们引发问题，允许人们射杀骆驼。
