Then she pushed the button (按钮) on her camera. “And I got my best photo of an elephant ever, by lying under my car,” Leila explained. “I wanted to get close to the elephants, but of course this was dangerous; they had their babies with them. So every morning I used to park my car in the open air near the path. They used to take the same path every morning when they left the water hole. After a week, they were used to seeing my car. So the next morning, I lay under it and got my photo!”Many of the best wildlife photos come from good planning. In Africa, photographers (摄影师) set up their hides near water holes. They also set up hides near forest paths, as animals use the same paths every night. For bird-watching, many lakes have hides. Inside the hides, bird-watchers can watch all day out of the wind and rain.Good wildlife photos are needed for books, postcards, magazines and newspapers. But a success rate of 1 in 20 is good.( )1.Leila got her best photo of an elephant ___________.A. near a lakeB. under her carC. in a holeD. inside the hides( )2.Photographers in Africa set up hides near forest paths, because ___________.A. animals take the same pathsB. the hides are out of the wind and rainC. they must park their cars thereD. the paths are safe for them( )3.

Consider (考虑) the following steps when writing your letter, which will help make your thank-you letter more meaningful and sincere(真诚的).Before you start, buy some special stationery, such as nice paper or blank cards. The stationery doesn’t have to be expensive, since even one-dollar card can be very nice. And you must decide whether you prefer to type your letter or (是..还是...) write it by yourself. Handwriting has a more personal feeling, while a printed（打印的）thank-you letter looks more professional (专业的).Now, you can start writing. You should express your purpose from the beginning. Start your letter by thanking the person for the gift or service he or she provided. Then you should explain how you plan to use the gift or service, or explain how the gift or service has already been used. What’s more, you can also express your feelings on the gift or service by saying that “It was a wonderful birthday present…” It also helps to mention a personal feeling such as “I was just so happy with the party.” In the end, you should mention that you want to see or ta lk to the person again soon. For close relatives and friends, you can also tell them how much you miss them and express regret(遗憾) that their visit was short.Sign your thank-you letter personally and with a heart. Try “Love”, “Yours truly”, or “Take care” instead (代替) of “Sincerely” as it is more for business.In this way, you will always maintain (维持) a pleasant relationship(关系) with your friends and relatives.1 2 3 4 56 7 8 9 10六、短文填空：阅读下面的短文，根据所给首字母提示，用合适的单词填空。
