Dear Tom,

You asked me why I like living in New Mexico.I like it?21?it is so beautiful.We havemountains,mesas(平顶山),rivers,and forests.Mesa is the Spanish?22?for a broad,flat-toppedmountain.For 12 years,I have?23?across the state several times a month,and I still find newplaces that take my breath away.

24?else do I like about living in New Mexico?I like the sunshine.We have over 300?25?days a year,with deep blue skies.Because we are 7,000 feet above?26?level and the weather isvery dry,the air is very?27?and the nights here are much colder than the days.

The many days of sunshine are a very good thing for our state.Do you know that New Mexico?28?more than 3,200 hours of sunlight every year?With that much sunlight,we are one of thesunniest states in the United States.Some people?29?that if we could use the energy from all of thesunlight here,we could?30?more than enough power for the whole United States!

The weather in New Mexico is good for?31?energy out of sunlight,but sometimes the lack ofrain is a?32?for people living here.Most of the state is desert,and there isn't enough water?33?drinking,growing food,and other uses.Farming is very difficult here because of the water shortage(短缺).There are many laws about water use in New Mexico so that everybody uses just enough.The?34?for water increases as more and more new homes are built.

So,as with all places,there are things that are wonderful and yet others that are35aboutliving in New Mexico.How about you?Do you like living where you are?

Yours,

Anna

"Most children carry their phone in their back pocket,and when someone reaches for it,in mymind they're reaching for a gun,"said Della Fave,a spokesman(发言人)for New Jersey police.

Della Fare shared a photo of the iPhone case(外壳)that he found on a social website(网页).In thephoto,a model stands with her phone in her back pocket,and the case looks like a gun.Della Fave said,"If a child draws the phone with the gun-like case before policemen,the firstthing they're going to see as it's coming up is a gun.This doesn't seem like a good idea at all to apoliceman."

The phone case is sold online by various sellers at prices from about$5 to$49 and comes inseveral different colors."The case is popular.That's why we sell it.If you have the case,you can playgames of shooting at parties,"said the Trend Shop."Don't worry.You can't actually shoot anyone!"

A policeman gave a few words of advice,"I would NOT suggest buying this kind of phone case,which was designed to look like a gun."

It is not clear who makes the case."If it's on the web,then it's out there somewhere;that's thebottom line,"said Della Fave.

What could Della Fare probably be?

A zoo is a place where animals are kept and displayed(展示)to the public.Some people arguethat a zoo need not be a place for animal display alone,and may also include raising animal species(物种)which are becoming less and less.

Animal rights groups are divided on the matter of keeping animals in zoos--with some in favor ofthis practice,and others calling for a ban(禁令).The most important reason that those in favor of thispractice put forward is that it offers protection for animals.For those species which are fighting for theirlife,zoos are the best places where they get plenty of food,water and medical care when needed.

Those who are against the practice argue that the idea of"displaying animals to the public"is itselfa strong enough reason for banning.They further add that the practice of using animals for our ownselfish gains cannot be a good reason under the excuse of protection.The treatment of animals inthesezoos is yet another big worry,with quite a few reports about ill-treatment(虐待)of animals once in awhile.

It's very difficult to come up with a clear idea on whether it is right to keep animals in zoos or not.It is true that the animals are protected in these places as they don't get into conflict with humans.But,at the same time,one has to admit that keeping them in zoos equals a disrespect for nature.Theseanimals are born to live in the wild,and we should accept this fact.

Some animal rights groups are in favor of the zoo because it can______.

What would be the most suitable title for the text?

bid your child's brain become smaller last summer?Probably not,according to a study byDr.Harris Cooper,professor at the University of Missouri-Columbia.The study found that when studentsreturn to school after a long summer vacation,they've lost one to three months worth of learning.

This is more harmful for math than it is for reading."All students lose math skills,"says Cooper.It may be because kids(小孩)have more chances to practice reading than math.Middle-class childrenactually learn more in reading than lower-income students over the summer.Cooper feels that this resultsfrom the variety of activities that many middle-class kids take part in over the summer,such as camping(野营)and trips.

"Parents can help their kids keep educational skills,"says Cooper.He suggests the following tipsto have a learning-filled summer.

1.Keep lots of books around and make regular trips to the library.Most libraries offer special?summer events for kids.

2.Think about what your kids may be learning next year when you plan the family vacation.Talk?with teachers to find out what they'll be covering in class.

3.Keep math in mind.Since kids lose more math skills than anything else over the summer,try to?do some special planning to find math-related activities.

4.Consider summer school.Struggling kids can get a lot of different kinds of help from summer?school programs.Summer school can also enrich and quicken learning in areas where kids show a special?interest.

Remember to keep it fun!You don't want to make your kids unhappy with learning during the?summer break.
