Dear Windows Internet Explorer．
Our relationship has been strained(紧张的)for a long time．Of course. it’s not all your fault,and nor is it a11 mine．Our intermediary is also to blame；my hated Gate-way PC. which runs far too slowly. But that does not get you off the hook．
B.watch volcanoes erupting in person
C.take part in the game of elephant polo
D.witness the most specific food fight in the world
3.We can learn from the passage that________.
La Tomatina
It is possibly the most famous and most specific food fight in the world. If you think tomatoes are only for salads，you are on a wrong track．Just a visit to Valencia，or more precisely，a small Spanish village named Bunol in August can totally change your perception . There，on the last Wednesday of August every year．trucks dump 120 tons of tomatoes in the streets of the town, and tomato juice and pulp(果肉)flow from there.

2.Visitors to Bunol in August can_____.
A.attend the annual balloon fiesta
Windows Internet Explorer，you did wonderful things for me that，at the time，no other could do．But，my dear．times have changed，andwhile you have，too，you have not changed enough. I am 16 now，nearly a grown woman，and I cannot tolerate your childish ways As much as I once cared about you，I fear that the time has come for us to part.
Also．as much as I loved it when we got together, your refusal to log me into some of my necessary accounts．such as email and MySpace．has become a problem. It was unfair of you, and I should not have submitted to your cruelty and mistreatment.

D.People who are curious about very strange events.
A. Its immune system is really bad
B. The author cannot log into her accounts

Volcan de Lodo El Totumo
If you are in Colombia at the end of March，you should make Cartagena part of your journey—here．between December and March every year，is the opportunity to get dirty, Bathing in mud from the Volcan de Lodo El Totumo can best be described as a primitive experience. The volcano is diminutive(微小的)，looking more like a little hill rising about 10 to 15m from the ground. If you climb a wooden staircase to reach the very top, you will discover a pit(大坑)of gray mud. It is believed that the mud has a curing effect，purifying your skin．
A third reason for my leaving you may seem mean：you are simply far too sickly. You are constantly contracting new viruses．and your immune system is terrible·I don’t have the time or the money to care for you any more. It may seem unfair，but you will have to survive on your own. I cannot keep curing you．going through and finding all your corrupted(损坏的)files，cleansing our intermediary’s system because you have given it some virus，bug or spyware. It takes far too much time and energy，which I do not have．
You see，Windows Internet Explorer．I can no longer deal with your ridiculous loading time.Sure，at one time I found it attractive--even--sexy for my browser to take ages to log in or load a web page．But not any more My life is fuller than it was, and I don’t have time for you to semi-load and then stop．
Balloon Fiesta
Have you ever been taken to the skies in a hot-air balloon? The annual Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta in America gives you the chance to enjoy a bird’s eye view of the city and countryside．Since 1972, perfect October weather，blue skies and wind patterns have combined to allow balloonists to control and retrace their route thanks to the direction of the winds. This is the only place in the world to enjoy a mass rise of balloons floating in the blue skies each October.
D.the annual Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta has been held for 45 years.

Here is Booked．net’s selection of the strangest events worldwide·
Elephant polo(象球)
The title is self-explanatory, but elephant polo is more interesting than the traditional alternative played on horses．Elephants make the game slower，and, because of this the field is only three-quarters the length of a standard polo field．The elephants carry two people and are guided by mahouts(看象人)．The player hits the ball and tells the mahout which way to go. The Kings Cup Elephant Polo Tournament is the sixth largest event in the Thai calendar.
