Indonesians love to celebrate. They believe that celebrating and eating together brings good luck. Let’s party Indonesia-style.
Would you be surprised to find a New Year’s Day in March? Indonesians on the island of Bali are getting ready to ring in Nyepi, their New Year. It falls in March or April on the night of the new moon and is a symbol of a fresh start for the people and the island of Bali. On the eve of Nyepi, families and friends get together in the market. They carry a huge monster which is made of wood and other materials around the village three times. After that, people set it on fire, hoping to drive out evil (邪恶的) spirits.
After Nyepi, a Turun tanah ceremony begins in honor of a child’s first steps. At the Turun Tanah, parents invite friends and family to a party to introduce the baby. They put different objects such as a bracelet (手镯), pen, mirror or toy computer around their baby. If the baby picks up a pen, he or she may be a writer. A child who picks up a gold bracelet may be rich.
While Turun tanah celebrates the future of a family. Galungan celebrates its past. Ancestors who have died return ‘home’ during this ten-day celebration. And living relatives do their best to make them happy. Tall bamboo poles line the street. People attend the ceremonies and visit their family and village temples. Actors and dancers give performances that tell stories of good fighting against evil.

Getting English Language Learners to Put Down the Books and Have Some Fun
Even if there’s so much about English that can be learned from a book or even in a traditional classroom setting, a lot of the language can still be learned best in more relaxing situations. In these situations, students are having fun. ____73____
Communicate with strangers. If you live in an area filled with English speakers, get students out of the classroom. ____74____ Students may not speak to strangers, but they’ll hear conversations taking place. And then they may begin to understand how to use the words they learnt in everyday speech.
Let their guard (防备) down. One difficult thing for learners is confidence when they speak English. Fun activities, especially those outside of the classroom, give students a chance to feel relaxed. ____75____ It may take a bit of time at the beginning, but once students get into it, they’ll start to get confidence.
Make use of English media. Most recorded language instruction is pretty boring and it can get tiring hearing the same voice repeat the same phrases. ____76____ They will hear common expressions and more everyday conversations in the movie. If they’re not sure about something they hear, it can turn into a more formal lesson once back in the classroom.
____77____ Casual (满意) conversations give learners the chance to hear or use English in situations. They can talk all they want about expressions to use while dining out or informal words to use with friends, but it takes a trip to McDonald’s or a picnic in the park for many of those expressions to truly set in.
A. You can let students go to a movie in English.
B. Put them among other English speakers.
C. They may hate to speak English.
D. Hear or use English in situations.

【答案】Dear Sam,
How time flies! It's time for us to say goodbye!
You have offered me so much help in my English that I think words to show thanks are far from enough.
I still remember three years ago,I had difficulties in learning English.It was difficult for me to memorize so many words and understand what people were saying.My spoken English and written English were poor too. However,I'm so lucky that I met you,a kind﹣hearted,smart and patient boy. Firstly,you taught me to listen more and read more.And it really helped me a lot.Besides,you suggested that I should watch English movies and sing classic English songs. In addition,you told me to form the habit of reading aloud in the morning and reading novels before going to bed.As a result,I finally made great progress.And I wish you happy and healthy.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua.
