21、   Calvin Gillian didn’t believe that Norway was the place for an adventurous (惊险的) holiday.

However, his brother and some friends told him to go there and he enjoyed it.

“I’m an extreme sports ( 极限运动) lover. I have traveled to many different countries, but I didn’t expect Norway to be a good place for an adventurous holiday. People usually visit Norway to go fishing and boating to enjoy a relaxing holiday, or to go climbing to enjoy the beauty of nature. But I didn’t go for them; I wanted adventure.

“Skiing (滑雪) is the most unforgettable thing I did in Norway. I went skiing in Svartisen. I had to wear special clothes, because skiing there could be very dangerous. Svartisen is a very special and beautiful place. The ice there is not the usual white but blue, like the sea.

“I also visited the Holmenkollen Ski Jump in Oslo. It was fantastic to look from the top of the ski jump (滑雪跳台) and the ski museum was very interesting. I wanted to try a jump but unluckily, it didn’t open when I visited. Anyway, I was very tired and needed a break, so I went back to my hotel and got some sleep.

“Next year, I am going to take my sister to Norway, too. She is having her holiday with our parents in Australia now and she wants to have a different kind of adventure next year.”

23、Using iPads to Make Learning Fun

Paper, pencil , white board , textbook are the tools you need if you want to go to school. But recently, you can add another one to the list: an iPad.

Because the popular Apple tablet is not only useful for searching the Internet and watching videos, but it is also being used to make learning fun.

Scientists now know that we learn better when we are enjoying ourselves, so recently software developers have made iPad applications (应用程序) that look like video games , but have strong educational content. One of the best examples of this new form of teaching application is Futaba, a game in which up to four children try to recognize a spinning (旋转的) object, and then identify what it is. The game can be used to teach English, math, foreign language , or just about anything, and students love it. Teachers can even make their own questions. The important thing is that children enjoy the game, and don’t even realize how much they are learning!

So the next time you have to choose between making your child study or letting them play a game, just remember...they could do both at the same time!

25、Over the past 20 years, the Internet has greatly influenced our world and changed our lives. The Internet makes it much e【1】 for people to search for information. For example, when we write a history report, we don’t have to go to the library. We can find information about world leaders and historical events on different websites. Everything we want to know can be found at the click of a button.

The Internet helps us to stay connected to family, friends and the world around us. Not long ago, we wrote letters by h【2】 and waited weeks for a reply. Today, when we use QQ, we send and receive messages across thousands of miles in a few seconds.

The Internet gives us a way to express our opinions in p【3】. We share interesting ideas with other people on QQ, Baidu Tieba, blogs or forums(论坛). If we dislike the food at school, we can discuss it in the school’s forum or in the Tieba of our own class.

A【4】 the Internet has made our world better in many ways, in some ways it can be a bad influence. There is a lot of false information on the Internet. It is important not to believe a【5】 we read on the Internet.

In addition, many teenagers choose to keep in touch with each other online instead of meeting face-to-face. People w【6】 that this harms their social communication skills.

Some teenagers spend too much time playing Internet games. They may lose focus on their studies.       

There are millions of interesting sites to visit and so many wonderful things to do online. How could we live without the Internet nowadays? But remember to use the Internet properly and wisely. Try to let the Internet be your good s【7】, not your bad master!
