Dear Mr. Smith, I'm a university student and I'm interested in teaching some of your activity courses this summer. I'm studying drama at Central University and I love photography, so I would like to teach those two courses. I'm also on the university swimming team and I'm learning to play the guitar. I can work for the first two weeks of July and the last two weeks of August. Best wishes, Ben Brown |
Man has invented four kinds of satellites(人造卫星).
The first kind of satellites studies the geography of the earth. They are used to make maps. They also help countries to see where they may find oil or gold. |
The second kind of satellites is used to guide ships and planes. A ship or a plane can send a message to the satellite, and the satellite can find out where the ship or the plane is. |
The third kind studies the weather. These satellites watch clouds and strong winds moving across the earth. They warn countries to make preparations when very bad weather is coming. |
The last kind is used for communications(通信). Telephone calls between countries can be sent. by these satellites. Some can carry hundreds of calls at the same time. The call is sent to the satellite, then the satellite' sends it to a station in the country and this country is being phoned. These satellites also carry pictures; they can receive and send about eight programmes at a time. |
