Dear Daughter,
As we drove off from Columbia,I wanted to write a letter to you to tell you all that is on my mind.
First,I want to tell you how proud we are. Getting into Columbia is a real testament of what a great wellrounded student you are. 1 College will be the most important years in your life. 2 " Education is what you have left after all that is taught is forgotten."What I mean by that is the materials taught isn't as important as you gaining the ability to learn a new subject,and the ability to analyze a new problem. The skills of learning will be something you cherish forever.
Follow your passion in college. Take courses you think you will enjoy. 3 Do your best in classes,but don't let pressure get to you. Most importantly,make friends and be happy. College friends are often the best in life,because during college you are closer to them physically than to your family. 4 Pick a few friends and become really close to them―pick the ones who are genuine and sincere to you.
5 May Columbia become the happiest four years in your life,and may you blossom into just what you dream to be.
Love,Dad (&Mom)
A. Please treasure your college years.
B. It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about.
C. You should be as proud of yourself as we are.
D. There is no single simple answer to any question.
E. Grades are just silly letters that give the vain people something to brag,and the lazy people something to fear.
F. Also,going through independence and adulthood is a natural bonding experience.
G. Don't be trapped in what others think or say.

As a resident of Hubei Province which is called "the province with thousands of lakes", my heart hurts for the polluting South Lake. We should of course do something of it right now.

Are the school holidays too long? We asked children,parents and teachers whether the summer break should be shorter. 1 Ruby Mullin,nine This idea is mean. There's no other word for it. Children need to calm down and have a good holiday at the end of a busy school year. The long holidays give you time to do things you wouldn't otherwise get to do,like in my family we go to Ireland and see relatives and friends there. It might seem long to some people. 2 Anthony Seldon,head teacher of Wellington College in Berkshire If it hadn't been for the long summer holiday,I wouldn't have come into teaching. 3 Whether it's painting,hiking or,as in my case,writing books,it adds such a lot to what teachers have to give. And as for all these worries about pupils forgetting all they've learned,children have up to nine weeks in summer,and their exam results don't suffer. We all know that some of the most valuable learning experiences take place away from the classroom.
Nachelle Crowther,mother of three kids 4 The sixweek break seems designed for another age,when mothers didn't work and your mum lived round the corner to give you a hand. If I was able to take a sixweek holiday,great,I'd love it―but in the real world,that isn't possible. Instead,I end up spending a fortune―around £600―on childcare for each week when I'm working.
Sarah Radford,a primary school teacher at Botley school,Oxford
I've taught for more than 20 years,and summer is the only holiday when teachers can properly switch off from the intense work of planning and assessing (評估) .If it was shortened,the result would be an increase in teachers' stress levels and a harmful effect on our ability to teach. Children need that time for unstructured play,and to have time not being assessed,simply being themselves. 5
A. Should children have less time off school during the summer?
B. However,time flies when you're having fun.
C. It's important for teachers to do other things.
D. A shorter summer holiday would be much better.
F. T have 9inreferenre for a lon^ cummer holiHav to have,fun
F. A long summer holiday can also improve childrenparents relationship.
G. And then school lessons will help their learning when they're back in school.

It says every scientist cherishes a childhood dream indicating his or her future success. But for Yuan Longping,dubbed (外號;) as " father of hybrid rice”,the dream is that he cultivates rice as plump as peanuts,1 Yuan won a 5 million yuan State Supreme Science and Technology Award today,known as the Nobel Prize in China,for his outstanding achievements in breeding highyield hybrid rice,2 Yuan came up with the idea of hybridizing rice for the first time in the world in 1960s.

By lending his name to the Longping Hightech,a seed company,Yuan obtained a 5 percent stake,or 2. 5 million shares worth 2 million yuan,in the firm.
However,Yuan said his research requires the lifestyle of a farmer,or rather a migrating farmer,as he has conducted extensive research related to the cultivation of new strains of hybrid rice " Super Hybrid Rice" in some 10 provinces.
The "Super Rice" yields are 30 percent higher than those of common rice. The record yield of 17,055 kilograms per hectare was registered in Yongsheng County in Yunnan in 1999.
