The British Summer
Britain is well known for its rainy climate. People joke that even in the summer time the country never gets any sun and that the skies stay disappointingly grey even during the months of
July and August.
Last summer though, it was so hot that people could hardly believe it. British people weren’t used to such high temperatures, so every day on the news there were stories about people struggling to work in such unusual weather conditions. Radio and television programmes also
reminded everyone to drink more water and not to stay too long in the sun.
When the sun comes out, British people tend to spend time in their garden if they have one. It’s common to invite friends and neighbors around for a barbecue, where everyone sits outside and eats food like grilled meat(烤肉)and salads. There’s always a back-up plan in case of rain
though, and the meal sometimes has to be cooked in the kitchen and eaten indoors.
People also spend a lot of time in parks during the summer, having picnics or playing sports. In every green area, there’s always at least one ice cream van, a kind of car that plays children’s
music and sells ice creams.
Towns like Blackpool and Brighton are popular for their beaches and amusement arcades(游
乐 场 ). People go there to swim, sunbathe and eat fish and chips. The water can be quite cold,
though, and that’s why quite a lot of people prefer to go abroad for their summer holiday instead. Popular destinations include Spain, Germany and France: all countries that promise a lot of
sunshine.

Horse Talk
Do you know horses talk? You can learn to understand “horse talk” if you pay close attention
to them.
When horses live in the wild, other animals try to eat them, so a lot of horse talk is about staying alive. Even now, when most horses live on farms, they watch for danger. For this reason, never walk behind a horse. If you surprise it, the horse might mistake you for a lion or wolf and
give a dangerous kick.
By watching the ears, you can get clues to what the horse is hearing. A horse can turn each ear in a different direction. For a wild horse, this skill is important for survival. The horse can hear something creeping up behind it while also checking out a threatening noise in front. When a horse lets its ears down, it’s feeling safe and relaxed. Though these actions may be natural
responses and not deliberate communications, they help you know what the horse is thinking.
Sometimes horses can send definite messages. For example, they know they are safer when they ’ re with other horses. If they become isolated, they “whinny(嘶鸣),” calling for company. They ’ re saying, “Where are you? I ’ m over here!” Domestic horses use the same sounds to stay in
touch with other horses.
If a horse snorts(打响鼻儿) , it ’ s not communicating anything. It ’ s just clearing dust or grass seed out of its nose. But if it snorts while holding its head high and staring at something, it ’ s
saying, “That looks dangerous. Get ready to run!” When two horses meet, they put their noses
together and smell each other’ s breath. It’s their way of asking, “Are you a friend?” Horses also “blow,” breathing out the air loudly through the nose, when they meet something strange. They are
asking, “Is this safe?”
Horses have a language of their own. Now you know a bit of what they might be saying!

Hawaii, the Aloha State
①Hawaii is sometimes called “the Aloha State” . Aloha is a word in the Hawaiian language meaning love and peace. It is often used as a way to say “hello” or “goodbye” . Hawaii is like the word aloha, because it is a state that has two viewpoints: it remembers its history and looks toward
the future.
②Hawaii is a U.S. state made up of a group of islands in the Pacific Ocean. It is made up of eight large islands and over 100 other smaller islands. It is the only state that is not in North America. The islands were formed by volcanoes that erupted(爆发) and rose above the ocean.
There are still active volcanoes in Hawaii.
③Because of its location, Hawaii has a tropical climate. It is warm, but usually not hot, all year long. Rarely does the temperature drop below 60 degrees Fahrenheit(华氏温度), although it
may occasionally snow at the top of some of the mountains.
④Once called the Sandwich Islands by Europeans, Hawaii is thought to have been settled by ancient sailors from other islands in the Pacific. The British explorer Captain Cook was thought to be the first European to find the islands in 1778. Because of its location, Hawaii became a frequent stop for European traders and ships. Hawaii was an independent country before it became part of the United States in 1893. It was governed by either a king or a queen. It is one of the only four U.S. states to have been a country before statehood. It was admitted into the Union in 1959 as
the 50th state.
⑤Today Hawaii is important as a vacation destination. Each year over 6 million people visit
Hawaii to enjoy the beaches, the beautiful ocean, and the historical Hawaiian culture. Come and
visit Hawaii. You are sure to love it!
