22、Americans love to drive. They have drive — in movie theatres, drive — through restaurants and driving vacations. It’s often called the “Great American Road Trip”: Your whole family gets into a van or Recreational Vehicle (RV, 旅行房车), and hits the road for a summertime trip across the country.
American cars are always big, but RVs are the biggest. These are houses on wheels. RVs have kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms. All across the country you can find RV parks — place to park your RV and spend the night.
As big as RVs are, they still seem very small to a family who has to spend every hour of every day together. With your little brother kicking you in the face all night in your tiny bed under the table, the dog barking and Mom playing her country music on the radio, your family is not at its best. What’s worse, RVs are always breaking down. So it’s possible to spend a lot of time watching Dad under the RV on side of a dusty road.
But RV travel can be a great time with the family too. You can see the country in the comfort of your own “home”. You can spend every night in a different, natural and beautiful place, or just stay where you are. You don’t have to pay for hotels or restaurants, only gas. But, best of all, you are free to go wherever you want at any time in your home — away — from — home.

A.bathrooms
B.bedrooms

D.gardens

A.Because RVs can go faster than other cars.

C.Because RVs never break down on the road.

B.RVs are big enough for families travelling together.
C.It is not difficult to find parking places for RVs and spend the night.

C.A Family Trip
D.Americans Love to Drive
23、Will you have to do a lot of homework every evening? Will your English classes be interesting? Who will teach you? Maybe you have lots of questions before school starts. Well, I want to give you some good advice about these questions.
First, keep calm(平静). Don’t worry about all the questions you have. Put your heart into learning, and you will certainly find something you are interested in.
Second, try your best to finish your homework quickly. Don’t spend a lot of time on it. Do as much reading and writing in English as possible. Don’t stay up late, or you won’t be able to study well the next day.
Third, invent your own study methods instead of copying or repeating others’. If you can remember new words in your ways, tell your teachers you don’t want to study new words by copying them again and again. If you are sure you can pass the tests well, I think your teachers will agree with you. And they can give you some interesting work to do.

24、 Dear editor,
My English teacher is very strict with us. Several days ago, when we were in class, Tom asked me a question. But my English teacher thought we were speaking in class. She asked us to stand at the back of the classroom for a few minutes. This made me unfair. After that, I feel nervous in her class, so I don't like her class. However, I really want to learn English well. What should I do?
Yours, Mike
Dear Mike,
I am sorry you are having difficulty with your English class. Every teacher wants his or her students to study hard. So I think you should have a talk with your English teacher and tell her what you were doing with Tom that day. If she knows your worries, maybe she will help you with your English. And she will be pleased to hear you want to learn English well. Of course, you should know that what your teacher did was good for you. When you are not trying as hard as you can, she has to stop it and try to help you. Wish you have a better life!
Yours, Editor
