Thank you for your card. I’m glad you’re having a good time, but I’m not surprised. Washington D.C. is wonderful at this time of year.

I would like you to come to my place and meet my people at the end of your journey. You can’t leave America without visiting New York. My brother’s hobby, as you know, is taking pictures. He has a big album(相册)of pictures of the United States and of New York. I’m sending some of them to you. When you look at them you’ll understand why New York is a city of islands. In fact it lies on three big islands: Manhattan, Staten Island and Long Island. There are many small islands in the city.

The most expensive part of New York is Manhattan. This island is famous for its skyscrapers(摩天大楼).Broadway is a famous street in New York. It is known for its theatres and you can see wonderful shows there.

There are many museums and art galleries(画廊)in New York. Pupils often visit museums and have their art classes there. School children often visit the Bronx Zoo. It is the largest of the New York City zoos. It opened in 1899 and since then has always been a favorite place for animal lovers and children.

In 1789, New York became the first capital of the United States of America but it remained the capital for only one year. Now, as I’m sure you know, Washington, D.C. is the capital of the country.

Are you ready for your exam?

So, it’s exam time again -have you done the necessary work to get good marks? Sleeping with the textbook under the pillow in the hope that knowledge will be magically absorbed into your brain as you sleep doesn’t work. The best strategy is to space your practice out, rather than cram(突击学习)it all together. 1.!

In an article, Tom Stafford, a lecturer in psychology and cognitive(认知的) science at the APF--University of Sheffield, advises, “If you organize five hours of study into one hour a day, you’ll remember more than if you study for five hours a day.”

2.—get pen and paper and start working. Students who can test themselves in advance will be better at getting back material from their memory and learning that material in the long run. You should start by reading a textbook using your favorite highlighter(荧光笔). 3. Instead of just reading those, you basically try to test yourself on them.

4., but if you are still anxious, there’s no harm in performing a personal ritual(仪式). In Japan, for example, it seems to be a tradition for students to eat Katsudon before a test.　　 5.. The name of the dish reminds people of the word “katsu”, meaning“ winning”. The bottom line is that you need to study, sleep well on the eve of the test, eat a nutritious meal, drink plenty of water and believe that your efforts will pay off. Good luck in your exam.

A. Don’ t rely on memory alone

B. That means hit the books early

C. Good revision should give you confidence

D. Then make flashcards of all the important concepts

E. They believe they could wash all the knowledge out of their head

F. This is a warm bowl of rice topped with egg and a slice of deep-fried pork

G. In different countries there are always those who swear by their “lucky underwear”
