Although I am not sorry to become a teacher, ______(但是我仍觉得要是当初选择当一名导游就好了).
The controlling idea: Since I began living in an apartment and going to school, my biggest problem has been the housework. 1. Cooking my food is a bigger problem. 2. The worst problem is doing my laundry. 3. Cleaning the apartment is not too bad; although it takes time away from my studies, at least when I finish the apartment looks nice. 4. Sometimes the food is burned, sometimes it is not cooked enough, and sometimes I have not measured correctly, so the food tastes terrible. 5. Sopping for my food is more difficult because I don’t know the English names of many foods, and often I have to spend extra time asking for help. 6. The launderette is far from my apartment, and I waste much valuable time. 7. I never had to cook before, and usually the results are discouraging. 8. Mostly I am embarrassed as I sit in the launderette with all the women, and so I wait until all my clothes are dirty before I do this horrible task. I also have trouble with the complicated instructions, so occasionally I end up with pink socks or a shirt that is too small.

Dear Caroline,
It was lovely getting your letter two days ago. Thank you so much for it. You do seem to have had a good time on your holiday. I wish that I could have been with you. 1 was also very interested in what you have told me about your life and work in London.
I have also been on holiday. I was able to join some friends on a tour to the Philippines and we had a very good time there. We spent a few days in Manila, which is the capital, and then went to Baguio, a country town in the hills to the north of Manila. 1 usually save up as much money as 1 can in order to go away on holidays because Hong Kong is very hot and sticky during the summer. I plan to go to Thailand next year and 1 hope that one day 1 will be able to save enough money to go to Europe.
Now I restart my work and am very busy in the office. My boss is an American and although he is kind, he always gives me a lot of work to do. I have been working for my boss since 2007 and I am very happy with my job. I am very happy that we have been pen pals for nearly two years, do please write again soon and 1 will also do so very soon.
With love,
Lydia

听力原文:M: Hey, Karen, you are not really reading it, are you?
W: Pardon?
M: The book! You haven’t turned the page in the last ten minutes.
W: No, Jim, I suppose I haven’t. I need to get through, but I keep drifting away.
M: So it doesn’t really hold your interest?
W: No, not really. I wouldn’t bother with it, to be honest, but I have to read it for a seminar. I’m at a university.
M: It’s a labor of labor then rather than a labor of love.
W: I should say, I don’t like Dickens at all really, the author, indeed. I am starting to like the whole course less and less.
M: It’s not just the book. It’s the course as well?
W: Yeah, in a way, although the course itself isn’t really that bad, a lot of it is pretty good, in fact, and the lecturers are fine. It’s me, I suppose. You see, I want to do philosophy rather than English, but my parents took me out of it.
M: So the courses are OK as such. You would choose a different one.
W: Oh, they had my best interest in mind. It’s hard, of course. My parents, they always do, don’t they? They believe that my job prospect would be pretty limited with the degree of philosophy. Perhaps they give me a really generous allowance, but I am beginning to feel that I’m wasting my time and their money. They would be so disappointed if I told them I was quitting.

The only people I ask to stay with me are those I like. But I am still more delighted when they go, and the house is ours again. I feel that I may be mistaken in these guests, and this may happen at times. They leave me more room in which to live properly. My mind, like my body, wears its old clothes again. I like to think about life in this world, and it is not easy to do this when talkative people are all over the place.
With the guests about, I find myself a solid. I feel uneasy. Often I feel I have nothing meaningful to say. I try my best to think of something interesting and useful to devote them. But usually it seems that no one appreciate what I focus on. Many times I even got angry over what they said, which made them upset. Frankly speaking, I am not used to gathering together with friends chatting, although I'd like them to stay with me. Somehow I feel nervous with them. But as soon as they have gone, I release myself completely, I expand into a gas again. And a gas can have more delight than solid.
So goodbye ! Guests.

A RED, RED ROSE
ROBERT BURNS
O, my love is like a red, red rose,
That is newly sprung in June.
O, my love is like the melody,
That is sweetly played in tune.
As fair are you, my lovely lass,
So deep in love am I,
And I will love you still, my Dear,
Till all the seas go dry.
Till all the seas go dry, my Dear,
And the rocks melt with the sun!
O I will love you still, my Dear,
While the sands of life shall run.
And fare you well, my only Love,
And fare you well a while!
And I will come again, my Love,
Although it were ten thousand mile!
