Article: 351 Gardener Street Los Angeles, CA90031 September 12 Relex Company 37 Pearl Street Clifton, NJ07013 Dear Sir or Madam: A year ago I bought a Relex camera second hand. It's a SW 705 model, and it's about five years old. Here's my problem: The light metre was fine when I bought the camera, but now it isn't working and my pictures are coming out too dark. I checked the batteries, and they are still good. I took the camera to some repair shops, but they said they couldn't repair it because the model is too old and they don't have the necessary part. Do you have the parts for this model in stock? If so, could I send you the camera for repairs? How much would the repairs cost? I'm going to buy your new SW800 model in about six months, but I would still like to fix this old one. Thank you very much. Sincerely yours Sarah H, McDaniel Question: When Sarah got the camera, _ . Options: A: it worked very well B: it didn't have any batteries C: the light meter doesn't work well D: it didn't take good photos

There are so many colorful peacocks here .The peacocks mostly live on the grass land of Dongfeng Square They are given food freely by visitors ,They usually throw food to them ,and don't think about at all whether the food is right or not. Some of the peacocks became ill, some even died after eating the bad food given by the visitors . I'm sure most of the visitors who throw food to the peacocks really like the birds ,but don't realize that they may be doing them harm .The visitors should be told that what have done is very harmful to the birds , and this kind of thing must be stopped from happening Perhaps we can build some small shops beside Dongfeng Square to sell peacock food .For us every person, it's our duty to give more love to these beautiful birds and to look after them carefully. Yours, Sun Yan Question: Some shops can be built beside Dongfeng Square so that they may _ Options: A: sell food for visitors B: sell food for peacocks C: make the square more beautiful D: have the beautiful birds

(Question)
Read the article and select the best answer. Article: With more and more cars on the road, the traffic jam will happen. How do we see it and how can we solve the problem? We know that the traffic jam happens in many places, especially in big cities. What are reasons for the problem? On one hand, some people think that they should have a car when they have enough money, and then it's easy to go out and they can feel comfortable. On the other hand, a growing number of people hope to use their cars to show off . What's more, years of research has shown that one of other reasons for the traffic jam is the driving habit. For example, many young people enjoy driving very fast, so they can feel excited. At last, most of them hardly care about the speed rules. Many governments are working at how to make the traffic better. In my opinion, firstly, the government should educate those people who have cars or plan to buy cars. The governments must make them know that the traffic jam is very serious , and set up a much more perfect traffic system to solve the traffic pressure. Question: Why is the traffic jam getting more and more serious? Options: A: Because there are not enough ways of transportation. B: Because there are fewer speed rules. C: Because there are more and more cars on the roads. D: Because governments are not working at how to make the traffic better.
