Dear Kelly,
Hi. We have arrived in the wet, hot city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand. All the different smells made us want to try the foods. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel where we are staying is cheap, but very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days to visit some places and then travel to Chiang Mai in the north.
Best wishes. Benny

Everything is so colorful and we took hundreds of photos already. Later we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take a train there and stay for two days. Then we will catch a bus to Chiang Lai.
Best wishes. Benny

Dear Kelly,
Our trip to Chiang Lai was long and boring. We visited a village in the mountains in Chiang Lai today. The people there live a very quiet life—no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say “Hello”. We can only say a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. ________________ And we will go back by air tomorrow.
Best wishes. Benny

The dragon is a great animal in Chinese culture. It brings the wind and rain. It is said that every year on the second day of the second lunar month, the dragon wakes up from its winter sleep and raises its head. Because of this, the day is called “Dragon Heads-raising Day” (Longtaitou). This year, it falls on March 14th.
Old people believed that after Longtaitou, there would be more rain. And rain is very important to farming. So Longtaitou was the start of spring and farming.
People have many ways to celebrate the festival. The most popular one is to have a haircut. Many people believe that a haircut during the first lunar month may bring bad luck to your uncles—mainly your mother’s brothers. They hope getting a haircut on Longtaitou keeps them away from bad luck.
Among Chinese people’s festival traditions, there is always a place for food. During the Longtaitou festival, people eat food named after dragons. Noodles are called dragon’s beard (longxu). Dumplings are dragon’s ears (long’er). And spring roll (春卷) are dragon’s skin (longlin).

Imagine a world full of robot cars and planes, and lab-grown burgers. It predicts what the world might be like in 2050.
The researchers predict everyone will have more free time and be much healthier. Today’s killer illnesses like cancer will be beaten and new organs (器官) will be grown in a lab.
Driverless cars are another important invention. Instead of driving, car owners will tell the car where to go and then they can get into the car with some work or even having a sleep.
“There will be new vegetables by 2050. Lab-grown burgers will be as normal as today’s burgers. A rapid growth of the population will drive (驱动) changes to food production,” the scientists said today.
3D printers will be common in every family. Most of the simple things will be easily printed at home. The printer will be filled up with different materials. Then the magic materials will create the things you need.
Brain research allows the complete understanding and recording of dreams. They can then be reviewed and quickly studied. Besides, a computer can give right directions during the night. So your brain will stay away from dreaming something terrible.
As a result of the fast population growth, mushroom (快速发展的) cities have been showing up all around the world. These cities, usually built to support 2-5 million people, can be built in just a few years.

Almost all cultures celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another year in some ways. Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways, and at different times on the calendar.
In western countries, people usually celebrate New Year’s Day from the midnight on December 31st to the morning of January 1st. People may go to the party, sometimes dressing in formal (正式的) clothes, and they may drink champagne (香槟) at midnight. During the first minute of the new year, people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. But some cultures like to celebrate New Year’s Day by waking up early to watch the sunrise. ▲
Many cultures also do special things to say goodbye to bad luck at the beginning of the new year. For example, in Ecuador, families make a big doll and burn it to show the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start. There are also other common traditions that can keep away bad luck in the new year, such as throwing things into rivers or seas, or saying special things on the first day of the new year and so on.
People around the world think some new year traditions can bring good luck in the new year. One widespread Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Year’s Day. The more grapes a person eats, the more good luck the person will have in the year. In France, people eat pancakes for good luck on New Year’s Day. In the United States, some people eat black-eyed peas for good luck—but to get good luck for a whole year you have to eat 365 of them.
