初二年级英语课文 Module 7 Time off

　　 Unit 1

　　Lingling : Welcome to Beihai Park.

　　Sally: Its so quiet! I can hardly hear the birds singing!

　　Lingling: the government wants to protect the environment of parks all over China. Lets walk around the lake, cross the bridge and climb up to Beita. The air is very clear today, so well see the whole park from up there. So what are you going to do about the concert?

　　Sally: Well, Ive phoned my teacher and I said my hand and arm hurt and I didnt want to play in the final practice. I said I only wanted to play at the Starsearch concert with the rest of the orchestra.

　　Lingling: So Kylie will play the solo, not you. What did your teacher say?

　　Sally: She said she was sorry. She asked me what was the matter.

　　Lingling: And did you tell her the truth?

　　Sally: WellI said that my hand and arm hurt. She asked if I was practicing too much, and I said that I wasnt. Then she asked if she could help me. I told her not to worry. She told me to look after myself. She told me to rest and get better soon.

　　Lingling: Good idea! For our May Day holiday, why dont we go to one of our national parks to relax-Wulingyuan Scenic and Historic Interest Area?

　　 Unit 2

　　Dear Mum and Dad,

　　Were spending some time off with Linglings uncle in Hunan Province, and Im having a wonderful time here in Wulingyuan Scenic and Historic Interest Area. Its very large, about 390 square kilometers, and its a magic land of mountains, forests and rivers. Its famous for the strange shape of its tall rocks. Some people think they look like soldiers, and others think they look like animals. Before Wu Guanzhong, a famous Chinese painter, painted some beautiful pictures of it in 1979,few people knew about the area.

　　 Last night we camped by a small lake. During the night, I heard a loud noise, as if someone was laughing. I woke up Lingling and her uncle, and I asked them what the noise was. Linglings uncle told us not to worry, and left the tent to find out what it was. After a few minutes, he told us to come out quietly. Then he pointed into the forest. It was a monkey. When it saw us, it jumped up into the trees and went back into the forest.

　　 This morning we took a cable car up Mount Tianzi-it was quite safe! From the top we hoped for a wonderful view of the lakes and forests, but we could only see the mountain tops through the clouds. Then we walked down the path, past trees, waterfalls and plants back to our tent. I pulled a leaf off a plant, but Linglings uncle told me to wash my hands, and not to touch it, because it was dangerous. He also said that it was wrong to full leaves and we should protect everything here. I felt sorry.

　　Tomorrow were going to the second largest fresh water lake in China, Dongting Lake.

　　Well go back to school next week! Wish you were here!

　　Love,

　　Sally
