五、任务型阅读
In the UK, bus journeys are very common. Buses are often convenient（便利的）for the people who live or work in the city centre. Passengers can avoid heavy traffic and do not have to pay for the parking. However, taking the bus is just a necessary but boring part of life: They get on the bus, pay for it and sit down or find a place to stand when it is crowded. Everyone seems sad and bored.
In Latin America, however, bus trips can be wonderful. For a start, films are showed on the buses between cities for passengers to have fun along the journeys. Local buses do not show films, but drivers usually turn on the radio and it can be great for passengers to listen to songs and get relaxed.
Even better than films and music are the sights and sounds on the buses. Local buses always go to parts of the town that passengers would not visit by themselves. There passengers can see shops that they have never heard about. And they can also see other cultures of the town from the windows of the buses.
Besides, passengers’ luggage（行李）is also interesting. It is common to see a happy dog’s head getting out of somebody’s bag or a lovely chicken “speaking cheerfully” under somebody’s arm. Once on a bus in Peru, a farmer even tied a sheep to the top of the bus. It was quite surprising.
In all, taking the bus in Latin America is really fun and unforgettable.

66．例文
Dear Linda,
In China, the village becomes more and more beautiful and life there is also more technological. Recently, I took part in an activity named Get close to the countryside held by our school. I’d like to share the experience with you.
We lived in the farmhouse. We also worked with farmers in the fields where we learned about different kinds of crops. What’s more, we helped the farmers pick vegetables. The most interesting part is to see cows milked by machines. Also, to my surprise, some seedlings are grown in the factories.
Through this activity, I not only experience the countryside life, but also learn something that I can’t get from books. I’m happy to see the farmers’ lives are getting better and better. At the same time, with the modern machines’ help, labor in the village becomes easier and more relaxing.
I really hope you can come to China and have a look at the changes in person.
Yours.
