Dear Zhang Li,
We have now been in Australia for five days. The plane trip was great. The weather here is lovely! People complain(抱怨)that it is too hot but it is not nearly as hot here as it's been at home lately. We were supposed to stay at a hotel in the city but we moved to Bondi Beach, which is 8 kilometres from the city. It takes half an hour by bus from the centre of Sydney. We’ve been swimming every day - the water here is so refreshing. Yesterday we went to Taronga Park Zoo which is only a short ferry ride across Syrney Harbour. We saw koalas (树袋熊) and kangaroos (袋鼠) and many other Australian animals. You wouldn't believe it, but while I was eating a sandwich for lunch a kookaburra (笑翠鸟) swooped down and stole my sandwich from the table right in front of me. We all laughed although it left me feeling a little bit hungry all afternoon. From the chair lift we had a close up view of the magnificent giraffes (长颈鹿). The animals in that zoo certainly have a great view of Sydney. From the elephant enclosure you can see the Harbour Bridge, the beautiful Opera House and the city of Sydney gleaming (若隐若现地) across the harbour. Tomorrow we are travelling to Greenville to stay with my host family. I miss you and will write again soon.
With love from your friend,
Liu Mei

Scientists are discovering more about the universe and the Earth's place in it. They can observe new and dying stars through telescopes. They listen to radio signals from objects in deep space. They also send spacecraft to explore the planets closely. According to the scientific information, no other planet but Earth has the air, water, and vegetation necessary for life.
The Earth has the best position among the nine planets that revolve around the sun. It doesn't travel too near or too far from the sun. It receives the necessary amount of heat and light. The air around the Earth keeps out the sun's dangerous rays. The sun dries up some of the ocean water into clouds and the winds blow the clouds over the land. In this way ocean water falls as rain upon the land. As the Earth revolves around the sun, the seasons change from autumn and winter to spring and summer. The Earth is green with vegetation. Without the Earth's special environment, there would be on life. If we change the environment, we may destroy some of the life on Earth.
Thousands of years ago the ancient people found out that days were longer in summer than in winter, and nights were shorter. They knew that this had a great deal to do with the changes of the seasons and the growth of plants and animals. They determined through generations of painstaking(努力的) observation that the day was shorter in the Northern Hemisphere(北半球) on the 22nd of December, after which it gradually grew longer until the 21st of June, when the day was the longest in the year and the night was the shortest. After that, the day would begin to shorten again gradually. In the beginning, the actual dates of these two days had to be calculated for each individual year, and depended on what kind of calendar was being used.
The first calendar to fix these days on definite dates of the year was the solar calendar, which had 365 days in a year and - every four years - a "leap-year"(润年) with one extra day.
Venus
Venus(金星)is our nearest neighbour in space. It is only 42 million kilometres away. We know that in some ways, Venus is like the earth. It is like the earth to go round the sun. It is almost as big as the earth, too.
Earth people can't live without air, but our neighbour doesn't have this kind of air. There is very little water on Venus. Still, some scientists believe there may be lives on it. These scientists think that some microbes(微生物) may be able to live on Venus. They are not sure about this but one thing---earth people could not live on Venus.
