2.I grew up in New Orleans where hurricane preparations were as common as school fire drills.Every time there was a drill,we could pack a few bags and drive to Houston,where we had relatives,and staved for a few days before returning home.But when Hurricane Katrina made landfall in New Orleans,things no longer operated like a fire drill.
The schools were closed.My family set out to find me a new school.We were fortunate to find a top school in Houston that generously offered me scholarships to complete the year.It was a private international school,with students from over seventy countries and a dozen languages being spoken as you walked through the hallway.It was a place with a totally different cultural atmosphere.
I was uncertain about the transition before entering the new school.I was granted the good future,however,to enter this new school environment at the beginning of the school team's soccer season.And at an international school,the soccer team was the most important team around.
The day I stepped into my new school,soccer gave me a team.I did not need to speak the same language as my teammates to pass them the ball.I did not need to share the same nationality as my teammates in order to celebrate a goal with them.I made some of my closest friends on that team.
I loved soccer and had dreams of becoming a professional,making a living from playing in one of the top leagues in Europe.I often dreamed of the places this game would take me,but I could have never expected that it would serve as the cornerstone of the bridge between different languages and cultures in the new school.

3.Not only does "global warming" bring about an increase in the world's temperature,but also it causes sea levels to rise,which has resulted in the first escape of an island nation.The citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.
During the 20th century,the sea level rose 8-12 inches.As a result,Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water that has polluted the country's drinking water.
Paani Laupepa,a Tuvaluan government official,reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation has suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years.Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms.
Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions,which are a main cause of global warming."By refusing to sign the agreement,the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluan's to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years," Laupepa told the BBC.
Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries.
Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable(易受影響的) to rising sea levels,Maumoon Gayoon,president of the Maldives,told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311,000 an "endangered nation".

A.Bad effects of global warming.
B.Reasons for lowland flooding.
C.Moving of a country to a new place.
D.Rapid changes in earth's temperature.

Dear Mike,
How is it going? I am flying to your country to attend the Culture Trip to America in next week. I feel exciting because my dream of visiting America will come true. Through the trip, I hope to open my eyes and learning more about the customs and history of your country. Besides, it is the good chance to practise my English.
Therefore, one thing I'm concerned about is because I may have difficulty communicating with local people. After all, there have many cultural differences between China or America, I'd appreciate if you could give me some proper advises.
I'm looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
