day1 练习题参考回答：
1.Would you like to work in a museum?
I wouldn’t want to work in a museum in China, but I would love to work in The Louvre in Paris, that is where visitors can see the Mona Lisa by Da Vinci. The Louvre is huge and they say that even if you went there every day for a year, you still couldn’t see everything. If I was a curator there, I could possibly see some of their secret exhibits and treasures that rarely see the light of day.
2. Would you like to be a teacher?
Being a teacher is a very popular choice of profession in China. Mostly it is because the work is considered relatively stable, the pay is not bad, but most importantly there are very long summer vacations. It is not a particularly challenging job, which is why I think it might be dull for me, besides, my father has a low opinion of teachers. He always says: those who can do, those who can’t teach.
3. Do you like writing letters?
Actually these days I don’t write letters much. I am more likely to send an email to my friends or family, but when I was younger, I used to write little notes to my classmates during class. If one of the boys liked a girl for example, he would write a small note, and then we would pass it person to person across the class. We had to be careful because if the teacher caught us, he would read the note out loud and that could be embarrassing.
4. Would you prefer to receive a telephone call or a letter?
These days my friends and I rarely call each other on the telephone. We are more likely to use instant messaging apps like Wechat, that way we don’t have to pay for the phone calls. I receive lots of these messages every day, and none of us writes letters. It is nice when I get a letter from my grandmother on my birthday. Usually she includes one hundred yuan in the letter, too.

Describe a plant that grows in your country.
Probably the most important plant that grows in China is rice. Everyone thinks that China grows a lot of rice, but in fact most of our rice is imported from Thailand where it is grown. Mostly rice is grown in the South of China where it is warmer and wetter. Riceplants are not grown from seeds. They are grown from cuttings taken from otherrice plants, and farmers take the cuttings and plant them in rice paddies,which are little pools of water. You can see these paddies all over thecountryside. Once the plants have matured, they are harvested, and dried. Youcould eat the brown rice, which is actually very high in fiber and very goodfor you, but only peasants eat brown rice, and most Chinese people willonly eat white rice. Chinese rice is short-grain and very different fromlong-grain rice from America or India.

I think that my brother made a big mistake when he bought a new car. Our parents gave him fifty thousand yuan to buy as mall car to travel to and from work. It was quite a lot of money, and if it was me, I would have bought a second-hand Ford or Volkswagen. My brother tough, he bought a bright green QQ, which is a small economy car, for forty thousand yuan and then spent the other ten thousand on a new laptop. I told him that I thought that a QQ was not a safe car, but he didn’t listen. Sure enough,two weeks later he was in a car crash and the car was destroyed, and what’s more, he broke his leg. If he had spent his money on a safer car, he wouldn’t have broken his leg.
