If you ask any young English person where he would like to go for a day, he will say “A theme park, please!” So after the exams(考試), some English teachers take their students to a theme park like Alton Towers for the day. It’s a way of thanking the students for working hard.

  Every year, the students, aged 16 at Southside School, go to Alton Towers when they have done their GCSE exams. Let’s ask some students about their day at the park.

Peter: “I didn’t like getting up early. We must meet at school at six in the morning to get on the bus. The journey took 3 hours and we sang a lot of songs when we were on the bus, so it was fun. Then we had several hours at the park.”

  Sara: “I was afraid because some of the rides were too fast and high. But I did go on three rides. My best friend, Karen, had to sit down beside me. I could not go on the ride alone. ”

  Alan: “My cap flew away with the wind, so a kind man picked it up and gave it to me. I took some good pictures there. I felt really happy”

  Sue: “I went to the water ride four times and I was very wet(濕的).”
  Graham: “I went on the new ride with Jackie. She was afraid so she closed her eyes all the time. The water ride is the best.”

  Jane: “I love it all. And I want to go again, even if I have to go some more exams first! I wish the rides were faster!

Laura: “I felt excited the night before I went there. I got up very early that morning. I enjoyed every minute of it.”

21. How many children are there in the passage?

Dear Annie,

I have never written a letter to a newspaper before, I have just never felt the need to do such a thing. I have always felt I was quite able to do everything by myself. But now I know I was wrong.

Sometimes you really need help in life, I guess. And that’s why I’m writing this letter to you.

I have a happy family. I love my children and they love me . I’m a mother of three children. I know well how to bring up (帶大)children, and two of them are already over twenty, so it is nothing new for me.

But now I have a serious problem:the Internet problem. My little son is just sixteen, and I feel he should do a lot of homework now , but he doesn’t seem to be interested in it . He can happily spend six or eight hours at a time on the Tnternet every day , He chats with pelple that he has never met before , but speaks little to us .He does lots of useless things on the Internet. And he sees red if you ask him to do his homework.

I just want him to be a good student . Now he seldomdoes his lessons at home. I’m afraid he will drop behind in his class soon. His father is a doctor , a very kind man . He never seems to be afraid of his father.

What can I do ?And don’t tell to talk to him. We’ve tried that and it didn’t work. But this is really a big problem in our family. I have tried everything I can think of . I

wonder how the Internet is so attractive(有吸引力的).You’re my last hope. Please tell me what I can do!

Yours,

Ellen Smith
