In March I started teaching English in Thailand.I really love teaching. I knew it could be a lot of fun, especially with my students who are 3-5 years old. But I had no idea just how much I would actually enjoy it. The only reason I started was simple - it was an easy way to make money.I had no idea Thai children could speak English so well at such a young age. My children could describe colours, shapes, body parts, days of the week and classroom objects!Two things changed after working. The first one was in the first week of teaching, I liked to have my lessons planned out, but things didnt go as expected. Now I am happy to walk into a classroom with whatever I need for the subject.I guess the other thing would be how much the children trust me. 18 weeks ago these children were unconfident and pretty shy, but now they cant wait to get involved.In 6 months I have no idea where I will be, but right now I love teaching and enjoy working with the kids every day.

The National Climatic Data Center also says high temperatures in June added to the warmest twelve-month period on record. Record-keeping began in 1895. The drought map showed that conditions improved in the Southeast in June compared to May. But the drought is expected to continue in large parts of the country. Last week, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack met with President Obama. Mr. Vilsack says the drought has seriously influenced some crops, such as corn and soybeans (大豆). And the United States is the worlds leading producer.The drought has made prices of corn and soybeans increase. Both of them are used in food production and for animal feed. Last week the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization reported that corn and wheat prices increased by 20% over the past three weeks.In the United States, farmers may quickly reduce the size of their animals rather than pay higher feed prices to keep them. That increased supply of meat would reduce meat prices in the short term. But those prices could increase in several months.Mr. Vilsack says the effect of the drought is hard to predict (预测). Some areas are getting rain, and drought-resistant (抗旱的) seeds have helped crops grow well in some areas.61. We can know the drought record of the USA has been kept for _ years of the USA up to now.A. 97 B. 207 C. 221 D. 11762. Which of the following American presidents met with Tom Vilsack?A. George Washington.B. Abraham Lincon. C. George Bush.D. Barack Obama.63. If the price of a kilo of corn was 3 dollars last December, how much is a kilo of corn now?A. 2.4 dollars.B. 3 dollars. C. 3.6 dollars. D. 3.9 dollars.64. Why is the meat price lower than before?A. Because there are more and more animals.B. Because farmers kill them to save their food.C. Because people dont like eating meat now.D. Because the government (政府) asks the farmers to do so.65. What is the best title for the passage?A. US faces the worst drought in almost sixty years.B. Take action to help the USA.C. What does the country do in the drought areas?D. President Obama meets with Agriculture Secretary.五、补全对话 (本大题共5小题，每小题l分，共5分) 根据对话内容，从方框内选择恰当的句子将对话补充完整。(选项中有两项是多余的)A：Hello, Mike! Whats the time?B：(66) _A：Wheres Bob?
