Think about the different ways that people use the wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power source (来源), as well as one of the oldest. People began to use windmills (风车) in West Asia about 2700 years ago. During the 1100s, European soldiers returned from the Middle East and they knew how to use wind power. Then windmills first appeared in Europe.

For many centuries, people used windmills to make wheat (小麦) into flour (面粉) or get water from deep underground. When people discovered electricity in the late 1800s, people living in faraway areas began to use windmills to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radio. However, by the1940s when almost all areas of the United States burned fossil fuel(化石燃料) for electricity, windmills disappeared.

During the 1970s, people started to cared about the pollution from burning fossil fuel. People also came to know that the fuel would run out one day. Although using wind power means more money, people still began to use it and the use of wind is becoming more and more popular. 36. From paragraph 1, what can we know about wind and windmills? A. Wind is the cleanest, richest and newest power source. B. European soldiers first used windmills before the 1100s. C. Soldiers in West Asia knew how to use wind power.

A. To help make flour from wheat. B. To help get water from the river. C. To help make electric lights. D. To help dig wells in faraway areas. 38.

I am so glad that you will visit Guangzhou. To help you learn more about Guangzhou, I have made a wonderful plan for you.

First of all, you can travel around the city, especially some places of interest, such as the Yuexiu Park. It’s a good chance to learn about the colorful Cantonese culture and history. Besides,it’s a good choice/idea to spend some time enjoying the morning tea in Guangzhou. There are different kinds of delicious local food. Why not have a try? What’s more, if you want to breathe the fresh air, Baiyun Mountain is a perfect place to go. I am sure you’ll relax yourself there. There are many other exciting activities waiting for you. Try getting to the top of Canton Tower so that you can get a bird’s-eye view of the whole city. Another way to enjoy the night view is to take a boat trip on the Pearl River. You will find how amazing Guangzhou is!

I hope you will like my plan. Yours, Lily
