　　 Unit 2 The camel that I rode had a bad temper.
    ■ Warm up by writing a short passage.
    Hello, class. Before we read the letter on page 58, we shall first try to write something. We shall try to write a short passage with all the words that are listed in the top left corner of page 58.
    bright, coast, field, funny, grape, ham, hill, lamb, outback, relative, sheep, spirits, surfing, wine
    I went to Dalian last Sunday and I stayed there for three days.
    To me Dalian is a really beautiful city with small hills and blue seas. The sky is so bright with no pollution. The coast is crowded with visitors form all over China. The field is so green and clean that it looks like a picture.
    I stayed at my relative's for the night. In the daytime I went shopping in the streets and surfing at the sea. I bought some wine for my father made from grapes that are grown locally in Dalian. I had some wonderful Dalian dishes like sea fish and menzi, a typical local food. I asked for ham and lamb, too. But I was told they are not Dalian food. For no sheep are raised there. I felt hot one afternoon and I bought a drink locally made. But it made me feel funny.
    I think life in Dalian is different from the outback life in my place, but I like Dalian and its spirits.

    ■ Close down by writing a letter of your own.
    To end this period try to write a letter of your own. You may write as Tony writes, making use of the same structures and the same expressions.
    Dear Mum and Dad,
    I'm writing this letter to you from the centre of Shanxi. At the moment we're staying near Wutai Shan--that's the name for a famous mountain with five tops. It's famous for its temples. On the first day, we took a helicopter tour over the mountain, and I was surprised at how big it was. It was 250 square kilometers and 3058 metres high at its north top.
