初中外研(新标准)版八年级英语下册Module 7 Summer in Los Angeles单元测试
Millions of children in the United States go to summer camps. Some go to play outdoors at traditional camps in the woods, in the mountains or on lakes. But families now have many choices of special camps. These can be in the middle of nature or a big city. Special camps offer young people the chance to learn about different subjects: Anything from space exploration to business to medicine.
In technology camps, one subject that children can learn about is video game design. They learn how to use computer programmes to create games of their own. One programme that teaches video game design is called Cybercamps. Children can learn how to design their own virtual(实际上的) worlds to set their video game in. Then, they programme their own rules and objects into the game.
Cybercamps also offers courses in robot building and Web design. A recent story in the Washington Post described how one child made a robot that could sing a song. Another made a robot that could follow a black line drawn on a piece of cardboard. Also, children can learn how to make Web sites. One child made a site for pokeman, one of his favourite cartoon shows.

Terry's Travel Advice Our travel expert, Terry Tripper, helps to give advice to some travelers in need. | |
·A woman fell down in front of us during our trip. While we were helping her, someone stole(偷窃) our money! If we weren't so nice, we would still have our money! —MARGARET, BOSTON | |
Terry says:I am always willing to help others, too. But if there is a common(骚动), I keep my money in a safe place. And remember, sometimes the person instigating the common is working together with the thief(小偷)! | |
·I want to share a tip my friend gave me. If you' re worried about losing your passport(护照), don't carry it around with you. Just keep it in your hotel room. —SERGIO, RIO DE JANEIRO | |
Terry says: Sorry, your friend was not right. Keep your passport with you at all times. If someone sneaks(偷偷地走) into your room, you will probably still try to get home! | |
· Help!I didn't plan well before the trip, and now I'm in London in a busy season, and the only hotel rooms we can find are too expensive. —KIM, VANCOUVER | |
Terry says: Try a travel website. And in the future, plan before you go. If you do some preparations at home, you will not have such a bad vacation now. |
