Language points:
Section A
1. Where would you like to go on vacation?
* would like to 表示“想要”，是一种委婉礼貌的说法：
would like+名词或代词，意为“想要”
I’d like a new computer.
would like to do 意为“想做”
She’d like to see her uncle this Sunday.
*would like与want区别：
二者都有“想要”的意思，后面都可以加名词或to do的形式，但would like比want更加委婉。二者大多数的情况下可以互换使用，只是在语气的委婉程度上有所区别。
She wants a cup of coffee.
She’d like a cup of coffee.
*on vacation 在度假中，在休假中，这个on打头的介词短语表示状态，意思是“进行中，在…中，于…状态”，英式表达常用on holiday。
The Smith family is now on vacation.
go on vacation 表示“去度假”
2. I’d like to trek through the jungle, because I like exciting vacations.…

* because连词，连接一个原因状语从句，不能与表结果的so同时出现在一个句子里。

That’s the place where I grew up.
特别要注意以下两个句子的区别：
I like the places where the people are friendly.

当表示希望某人做某事时，可以用wish sb. to do，但hope没有这种用法，可以在后面加从句。

wish则不考虑可能实现与否，或认为可能性不大，有时还可表示与事实相反的愿望。

Many places in the world need more fresh（淡的）water. Every country is trying to find ways to turn salt water into fresh.
Why aren't there many factories like the Symi factory？
In some places，the sun is not hot enough. Or it does not shine every day.
In such places，other ways of heating（加热）sea water can be used. These ways cost more money，but they work faster than the sun. By boiling（煮沸）sea water with high heat，a lot of fresh water can be made quickly.
But heating is not the only way to get fresh water from salt water. Other ways are tried.
One way is freezing（冷冻）. The fresh part of salt water freezes first. To get fresh water，the bits of ice are taken out.
Which way is the best？The one that gives the most water for the least money. It may be a different way for each place.
Symi’s way seems very good for small, hot places. It does not make very much water at a time. But the factory is easy to build and costs little.
That is why people in many dry places talk about Symi！

Friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office，a street urchin was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car，Paul？”he asked.
Paul answered，“Yes，my brother gave it to me for Christmas. ”The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing？Boy，I wish…”He hesitated.
Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.
“I wish, ”the boy went on，“that I could be a brother like that. ”Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car？”
“Oh yes，I’d love that. ”
After a short ride，the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Paul，would you mind driving in front of my house？”
Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are？” the boy asked.
He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.
“There he is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”
Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable holiday ride.
