6、你是Alice。你的朋友Bonnie很快就要到你的乡间小屋拜访，但你却要出去一会儿。留一张便条给她，告诉她食品在哪儿，告诉她一个人在屋里时应注意些什么。

May 18, 2002

Dear Bonnie:

I will be away for a while. The key to the cottage is under the doormat, and the food is in the refrigerator. After entering the house, lock the door from inside at once. The cottage is far away from the nearest town, and the area is not quite safe from burglars. So I think the saying is right “Where there is precaution, there is no danger”.

Have a nice stay here.

Yours,

Alice

9、有人认为男性比女性强，另外有人认为女性也具有与男性竞争的能力。谈谈你的看法。

1、 I think sometimes men are superior to women, and sometimes women are superior to men.

Men are better than women sometimes. First, men are normally stronger in body and they are able to do the hardest job. Second, men are more individual and creative and often hold the most important and well-paid positions. However, women are better than men sometimes. First, women are more gentle and careful. For example, most nurses are women and they can easily detect delicate changes about their patients and clam them down. In addition, women know well how to put things in a mess in order.

In a word, men and women are equal and they should learn from each other.

2、Should Men and Women Be Equal?

People have different ideas about this issue, Some people say that men are superior to women in ability because men are physically stronger, do most of the hard labor in the world and hold most important positions. Other people believe that women have the ability to compete with men. There have been many famous women state leaders and great scientists in the world. We should fully carry out the principle “to each according to his work” so that the enthusiasm of both men and women for work can be fully aroused.
