Dear Amy
How are you? Mum, Dad and I went to Thailand last week. We had a great time!
We arrived at the airport early on Friday morning. I chose a window seat on the plane. I could see the clouds clearly from the window. They looked soft and shiny. Four hours later, we landed in Thailand.
We stayed at a hotel in Pattaya（芭达雅）on our first day. We
went to the beach. We played different water sports there. We had so much fun! We were tired when we got back to the hotel.
On the next day, we went to Bangkok. We visited two temples(寺庙) there. They looked like golden bells with pointed tops. We took some photos outside the temples and had a walk in the gardens. In the evening, we had dinner at a restaurant next to a lake. The food was very spicy so I kept drinking cold water!
On the last day, we hung out at a shopping mall. Mum bought a beautiful tea set. Dad bought some T-shirts and I bought some dried mangoes. We went to the airport after lunch.
I was lucky because I got a window seat again. This time I could see the beautiful sunset.
We enjoyed the trip very much. I hope we will go on another trip again soon.
Love

Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure(冒险) – those who have climbed the highest mountains, traveled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest seas. Now, however, there are people who try to find an immediate thrill(毛骨悚然)from a dangerous activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.
I would think bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place(perhaps
a bridge or a hot-air balloon)200 meters above the ground with an elastic(有弹性的)rope tied to one of your feet. You fall at up to 150 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. Other activities which most people would say are as dangerous as bungee jumping include jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs(峭壁).
Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists(心理学家) advise that it is because life in modern
societies has become safe and boring. Life, according to many people, offers little excitement. They live and work safely and comfortably. The answer for some of these people is to try to find danger in activities such as bungee jumping.
( ) 6. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

D. they are interested in such sports
( )9. We can infer(推断) that the writer ____________.
A. is afraid of dangerous sports
B. doesn’t like dangerous sports
C. supports dangerous sports
D. thinks bungee jumping one of the adventures
( )10. Which of the following is the best title for this test?
A. Bungee jumping: a dangerous sport
B. Bungee jumping: an exciting sport
C. Dangerous sports: what and how?
D. Dangerous sports: what and why?
