Dear Mr. Wang,

Thank you for taking your time to read my letter. 

My name is Wang Lin. I was born in Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province in February 1988. Now I’m studying in the Foreign Languages College, Yangzhou University. As an open-minded young man, I’m good at communicating with people. English is my favorite subject. In 2007, I won the first prize in the National English Speech Contest. And in 2008 I worked as a volunteer in the Beijing Olympics, which helps me accumulate enough working experience.

    With the approach of the 2010 World Expo, I’d like very much to be a volunteer. Above all, I like meeting people from all over the world and making friends with them. Besides, I have such a rich knowledge about Chinese history that I can introduce them to our splendid culture. I’m sure I’ll serve the guests with enthusiasm. To sum up, I believe I can be a qualified volunteer. 

I will value it and do all I can if I could be accepted.

M: I see. Thank you.

W: How can I get to your house?

M: Oh it’s very easy. My house is only five minutes’ walk from the station. Turn right outside the station, and then it's the third street on the left. You can't miss it. It's got the number on the gate. It's exactly opposite the park.

W: I see. Thanks.

M: Here we are. This is it. I know it's smaller than you wanted, but it's one of the nicest flats in the building.

W: Does it have three bedrooms?

M: No, there are two. The master room is quite large though. Maybe you could let the children share the larger room, and you and your husband could use the smaller one.

W: I suppose I could do that. A three- bedroom flat will be difficult to find. I've been looking for one over a week. The first three --- bedroom flats that I have found are all extremely expensive. You said that the rent would be 350 dollars a month.

M: Yes. It includes gas. So, as you can imagine, electricity and water are quite inexpensive.

W: Did you see today’s newspaper? That building over in Centerville was just struck by lightning for the fourth time!

M: I'm not surprised. If the conditions for lightning to strike are right one time, they might be as good another time.

W: Well, I don't take any chances. If I'm caught in a thunderstorm, I look for a building or a closed car. Also, I was told that if you're stuck outdoors, the best thing you can do is to keep yourself close to the ground and avoid bodies of water.

M: To tell you the truth, even when I'm at home, I don't take baths or showers during a thunderstorm. And I don't use anything that works electrically; Maybe I'm too anxious.

W: I wouldn't say that. According to the article, lightning starts thousands of fires every year in the United States alone. Hundreds of people are injured or even killed. I think you're just being sensible.

(Text 10)

M: Attention please, ladies and gentlemen. Our bus is getting close to Cambridge, where we'll be stopping to eat. We'll have our lunch in 'the garden of a restaurant overlooking a small park that reminds people of a very famous tree. It's said that General George Washington took command of the army in 1775 under its very branches. It was almost 100 years later, in 1864, that the city of Cambridge celebrated the event and from that moment on, the tree was called the Washington Elm. Later the tree was attacked by insects and finally destroyed in a storm. The remains of the tree were cut down and the growth tings were counted to find out how old the tree was. Well, it seems that if Washington had accepted the Command of his army under this tree he must have done so on his knees. This particular elm couldn't have been over 3 or 4 years old in 1775, It is a well-known fact that Washington took command under an elm tree, but unfortunately it couldn't have been the famous Washington Elm.

    Well, enjoy your lunch. Watch your step as you leave the bus.
