24、Dear Lucy,

How are you? It has been a month since my family left Hong Kong for England and we are fine.

England is very different from Hong Kong. The weather is terrible and it rains a lot. The buildings are funny. They are in rows and not high. I love them because the rooms are much larger. I’m having a wonderful life at my new school and my new home!

Mum and Dad are happy with their new jobs. But my brother Jack doesn’t like moving to England because he misses his friends so much.

I’ve made lots of new friends at school. My teachers are really nice too and my English has improved a lot. After school, we can take part in relaxing activities such as sports, watching films or playing computer games. There’s a park near the school where I often go with the other students at the weekend.

We are travelling back to Hong Kong for the summer holiday. I will visit you and bring you a present!

Write back soon!

Love

The balalaika, also called the "Russian guitar", is a traditional Russian musical instrument (乐器). It has a long neck, a wooden triangle-shaped body and strings（弦）. It is usually used to play Russian music by plucking the strings with fingers or a pick.

Russians like the balalaika. The music played with it can be cheerful, as if the farmers were dancing happily to celebrate their harvest. It can also be energetic, as if the workers were working hard to make their country richer and stronger. If a Russian moves to live or work abroad, he will probably take a balalaika with him. When he feels lonely and sad, he will play it to cheer himself up.

At first the balalaika was played by the poor in Russia. At that time, balalaikas were made by the players themselves. They were rough（粗糙的）,  simple and cheap with different numbers of strings, from two to even six. Later a Russian musician Vasily Vasil'yevich Andreev （1861-1918） improved the balalaika. He created a whole family of balalaikas of different sizes, all with three strings. The smallest balalaika is called Prima. It is 60-70 cm long. The biggest, Contrabass, is almost 2 metres high with a leg to sit on the floor. Andreev founded the first balalaika orchestra（管弦乐队）in the world, mainly using balalaikas to perform. He gave concerts at the Universal Exposition（博览会） in Paris in 1889, which was a great success.

Today, there are balalaika groups performing around the world. More and more people get to know the balalaika and are attracted by its Russian style music.

【1】The music played with a balalaika is usually          .

A．cheerful and energetic

B．strong and serious

C．soft and modern

D．slow and sad

【2】What's the author's purpose in writing about Andreev?

A．To show the success of balalaika concerts.

B．To tell the history of balalaika orchestras.

C．To share his experiences for playing the balalaika.

D．To introduce his actions of developing the balalaika.

【3】What can we learn from the passage?

A．The balalaika has a round shape.

B．The balalaika is liked by Russians.

C．The balalaika was played by the farmers in Russia.

D．The balalaika was founded by Andreev.

①Many stick puppets (木偶), dressed in traditional costumes, have fun on stage. They are able to change their facial expressions and perform difficult movements along with the music. The people who control the puppets are below them and use three rods (杆子) to move the head and hands of the puppets.

After  【6】(go)back home , he opened the bigger box. To his surprise, the box was full of gold shining brightly. “My God!

He was so sorry for what he did, but it was too late.
