There are trees and flowers and a small ground. Every evening, large numbers of people go there to improve their English, but I had never been there before. When I arrived there, many people had already (已经) been there. I looked around and found that most of them were college students. Some of them were talking in English in twos and threes. To my great surprise, I even found three foreigners talking and smiling with some students who were listening with great interest. Just then, a tall student came towards me and asked, “Shall we have a talk in English?” My heart beat very fast at that moment because it was the first time for me to visit the English corner. Anyway, I said, “Yes.” Soon we talked freely about our studies, our lives, our hobbies as well as our problems of learning English. Time went fast, and it was already 11 o’clock before I realized it. I had a good time there and was glad to learn a lot at the English corner. I understood the proverb better, “Practice makes perfect.” 1.

It wasn’t built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Sea water is everywhere around the city. Even so, travel isn’t difficult. The waterways are always the best way to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges.They can guide you where to go. People in Venice often move from place to place by boat. Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem. Sometimes tourists will have such different experiences. They may walk across the Rialto Bridge, and there’s nothing special. But when they come back to the bridge an hour later, it’s underwater and everyone needs to wear rain shoes. Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters. Another problem is the rising sea water. The temperature rises over the years. This makes some ice of the Arctic Ocean(北冰洋) melt. Every year, the city meets the problem of high waters in autumn and winter. When a lot of water comes, more than half of the city is under-water. Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower. The Italian government(政府) asked some of Italy’s biggest companies to work together. They made some plans to stop the rising water. Anyway, these plans are helping solve the problem. 6. There are ________ waterways in Venice. A. 110 B. 117 C. 230 D. 400 7.
