Dear Jeremy and Alice,
Although we’ve been delighted to have you as neighbors,we’re hoping to settle something that bothers to us.In a word,your dog—Cleo.
We’ve called several time about Cleo’s early morning barking.It is difficult to understanding why she barks every minute she’s outside.The early morning barking have been disturbing us as we are often up all night with the baby.Beside,Cleo tends to bark a average of six hours a day.This morning she starts barking even before 5 o’clock.That is too much for us,considering how closely the houses are.
We appreciate our apologies and goodwill,but we hope that you can figure a good way of settling the matter.
Sincerely,
Jack and Rose

Ⅱ.阅读理解
Among the five cities that experienced the largest population growth,between 2011 and 2017,three were in Texas.The number moving into the state from elsewhere in the US and from abroad is far greater than any other American state.Why?
“I don’t think people go for the weather,”says Joel Kotkin,the professor of urban development at Chapman University in Orange,California.“The main reason for which people go there is for employment.It’s pretty simple.The oil and gas boom has helped turn Texas into a great place for employment,particularly world energy capital Houston,but growth has also been strong in tech,manufacturing and business services.”Critics have questioned whether the “Texas miracle” is a myth based on cheap labour and poor regulation.Yet Kotkin says Texas has plenty of high-wage,blue-collar jobs and jobs for university graduates,although people looking for very high-wage jobs will probably head to Seattle,San Francisco and New York.
“Once employed,it’s hugely important that your pay cheque goes as far as possible,”says Kotkin.“New York,LA and the San Francisco Bay Area are too expensive for most people to live,but Houston has the highest ‘effective’ pay cheque in the country.”Kotkin came to this conclusion after looking at the average incomes in the country’s 51 largest metro areas,and adjusting them for the cost of living.His results put three Texan areas in the top 10.Houston is top because of the region’s relatively low cost of living,including consumer prices,utilities and transport costs and,most importantly,housing prices,he says.
Kay Bel,the tax editor at Bankrate and Texan native,says Texas is one of only seven states where residents pay no personal state income tax.Overall,only five states have a lower individual tax burden than Texas,according to Tax Foundation research.There are also tax incentives(刺激) for businesses.
Because of its good-value housing,Texas has been particularly popular with families,and some of its cities now have an above-average number of children.In Texas,you can have a reasonable mortgage and pretty good schools.Besides,restaurants are family-friendly.
