Joan is an American girl. She lives in China now. She is in my class. Her parents work in China, too. But her brother works in the USA. So they often writes letters(信) to him. Joan likes Chinese class very much, and likes speaking Chinese with us after class. Her father teaches(教) us English well. We all like his class. On Sundays, Joan goes to the People's Park with her father and mother. Sometimes she goes shopping with her mother. They like Chinese food very much. It's a happy family.
A poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school, found he had only one thin dime left, and he was hungry. He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so brought him a large glass of milk.
He drank it slowly, and then asked, "How much do I owe you?"
"You don't owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness." He said, "Then I thank you from my heart."
As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but his faith in God and man was strong also. He had been ready to give up and quit.
Years later that young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in specialists (专家) to study her rare disease.
Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her room.
Dressed in his doctor's gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to save her life. From that day he gave special attention to the case.
After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it, then wrote something on the edge and the bill was sent to her room.
She feared to open it, for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to pay for it all. Finally she looked, and something caught her attention on the side of the bill. She began to read the following words: "Paid in full with one glass of milk"

Dear Linda,
I have been in England three months now. I hope you don't think I've forgotten you. There have been so many places to and so many things to do that I've not had much time for writing letters.
I shall soon be starting my studies at King's College. So far I've been learning a bout England and British of living. I won't tell you about London. There are plenty of books you can read and plenty of pictures you can look at. I'm sure you'll be more to know what I think about the life here.
I find some of the customs(风俗) new and interesting. People here do not shake hands as much as we do in Europe. the first few weeks I was often surprised because people did not put out their hands when I met them. Men raise their bats to women but not to each other.
Yours,
Amy

Many people like to travel by plane, but I don't like it because an airport (飞机场) is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for (等待) hours for the plane to take off (起飞) and it is often late. You can't open the windows. You can't choose (选择) the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to go out of the airport and into the city.
I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your journey(旅行) when you want to, and you don't need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many th
ings with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
