Dear Sir，
Thank you for invite me to the summer English course in your school．As for your choice between the two courses, I prefer the four-week course because of this will allow me more time to do some traveling but make a few new friends．Of all the subject I’m learning at school, I like English best．I had been learning English for eleven years but my spoken English remains poorly．So I really hope to take this chance improve it．If possible, I’d like to stay with a family for a couple of days in order that I can know some customs in England, that I’m particularly interested in．I believe I will have wonderful time this summer．
Yours truly,
Li Hua

My wife and I moved into our home two years ago．We had a yard with a lot of ．Very often when we have flowers, Denise or I would plant some between the rocks, just to add some to the area．
Last summer, I found a tiny little in the yard that I could not immediately identify．I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise said she didn’t either．We decided to let it growing until we could find out what it was．
Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the plant, it appeared to be a sunflower．I decided to the weeds around it．As I pulled rocks from the area to get to the weeds, I noticed something ．The sunflower had not where I saw it begin．It actually had begun under a big and grown under and around it to reach the ．
That’s when I that if a tiny little sunflower didn’t let a big rock stand in its of developing, we too have the ability of doing the same thing．If we ourselves like that little sunflower, we can reach where we to go and get what we need for growth．
We need to believe in ourselves knowing we have the to achieve our goals．Like the , it knew it had the ability to get over the rocks because it had in itself that it would succeed．Stand tall like the sunflower and be who and what we are, then the environment will begin to us．We will find a way to go under or any “rocks” in order to reach our goals．

1. Sometimes they try to get out of a class to escape a teacher they don’t like．Here is some advice to solve this problem．
Ask yourself, “What can I learn from this teacher?” Even if you don’t worship （崇拜） his or her personality or lectures, dig deep until you find a subject in which he or she is very knowledgeable．Focus on that part of the teacher’s personality, and use him or her as a tool for learning．Not only will you gain more knowledge in that subject, but a closer relationship with your teacher may help you understand one another better．2.
Talk to students who are doing well in the class and ask them for tips, tools, and a plan of action to get along with the teacher better．3.
If you still can’t get along, make an appointment with the school guidance counselor （辅导员）．He or she will offer many tips and suggestions for you to get out of difficult teacher relationships．4. That means they can help you and your teachers get rid of the bad impression on each other．
5. Your parents can meet with your teacher and try to work it out．
Teachers are there for more than just homework, and they know about more than just their subject matter．They can help you learn how to function as an adult and a lifelong learner．
Undoubtedly, these will be a few teachers along the way who you will always remember and who might change your life forever．
A．Sometimes a guidance counselor can act as a mediator between you and the teacher．
B．If you’re too shy to talk to another student, study his or her actions and behavior in the classroom and try to follow that lead．
C．Guidance counselors have the right to blame teachers．
D．There must be something good in every teacher for you to learn from．
E．Students find it easy to get along well with their teachers．
F．If your relationship problems can’t be solved in school, then it’s time to tell your parents or guardians．
G．Students don’t always get along well with their teachers．
In Los Angeles, drivers spend sixty-one hours every year stuck in traffic．These drivers know all too well how bad the traffic can be．“There're too many cars, and you can't move around a lot．”
Professor Cyrus Shahabi also knows about traffic jams．He lives more than 65 kilometers from his office at the University of Southern California, in Los Angeles．He is always late even with the help of a navigation （导航） system．
He decided to develop a program called ClearPath for that．He says his program uses historical data to predict traffic conditions even before the driver leaves the house． “What’s unique is that we use a lot of data that’s currently become available including traffic data, weather data, and we analyze that so that we can predict what's going to happen in front of you when you leave home．”
Professor Shahabi says his system does more than just respond to current traffic conditions．With ClearPath, he says, a driver can decide what time he wants to leave, and ClearPath will give the fastest route．It looks at the entire road network, including surface streets as well as highways, before the driver hits the road．Professor Shahabi hopes to have ClearPath available nationwide and overseas once they can collect traffic data from other cities．
“I always thought thatLos Angeles had the worst traffic, but now I know that Shanghai, Beijing, Seoul, Tokyo, believe it or not, Singapore, Hong Kong certainly are examples that can immediately use this．”
Professor Shahabi hopes to share this new technology with companies that already have navigation systems, such as Google and Apple．
