Language points:
Section A
1. Where would you like to go on vacation?
* would like to 表示“想要”，是一種委婉禮貌的說法：
would like+名詞或代詞，意為“想要”
I’d like a new computer.
would like to do 意為“想做”
She’d like to see her uncle this Sunday.
*would like與want區別：
二者都有“想要”的意思，后面都可以加名詞或to do的形式，但would like比want更加委婉。二者大多數的情況下可以互換使用，只是在語氣的委婉程度上有所區別。
She wants a cup of coffee.
She’d like a cup of coffee.
*on vacation 在度假中，在休假中，這個on打頭的介詞短語表示狀態，意思是“進行中，在…中，于…狀態”，英式表達常用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.…
我想去熱帶叢林旅行，因為我喜歡充滿刺激的假期。
* through穿過，指從某空間內部穿過，across也有穿過的意思，但是指在表面上或一條線上從一邊到另一邊。
The train is running through the tunnel(隧道).
Don’t go across the street when the traffic lights are red.
* because連詞，連接一個原因狀語從句，不能與表結果的so同時出現在一個句子里。

3. go trekking 去遠足
go + doing 的這種形式在英語中很常見，意思是“去做…”

這兩句是含有關系副詞where的定語從句,跟在表示地點的名詞后，如place, city, village, town等，where在句中作地點狀語。
That’s the place where I grew up.
特別要注意以下兩個句子的區別：
I like the places where the people are friendly.
I like the places that are cool.
這兩句話中，先行詞都是表示地點的詞，關聯詞的使用就要看它在從句中所作的句子成分，做主語或賓語，用that，作狀語，用where。

I hope to visit Hawaii one day.
*hope作動詞，表示“希望，愿望”,后常跟to do或從句。

hope后加so或not還可常用于簡略回答中

當表示希望某人做某事時，可以用wish sb. to do，但hope沒有這種用法，可以在后面加從句。
The girl hopes her mother will come home early.
The girl wishes her mother to come home early.
*hope表示未來可能的希望，或做的事情經過努力可以實現；
wish則不考慮可能實現與否，或認為可能性不大，有時還可表示與事實相反的愿望。

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（加熱）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（冷凍）. 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.

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.
