Dear sir,
     Thiry years ago, I walked into your bakery and asked for some loaves (条,块) of bread to sell. At that
time I was twelve years old. A young lady was working that day. She gave me five loaves and wished me
good luck. I took the loaves and went out to sell them.
     It took me all day, but I sold them all. At the end of the day, I had some money. I was the happiest boy
in the world as I walked home that evening.
     The next day, I went to a bicycle shop. I paid a deposit (定金) on a new bicycle. And then I started
my next job- as a newspaper delivery (递送) boy. Soon I could pay the rest of the money for the bicycle
and the bike was mine. I was so proud. 
     Today, I still work in the delivery business. I have a lot of trucks to send goods (货物) all over the
country. I live in a beautiful house, but I don't ride a bicycle these days. I drive a large and nice car.
     I do not know who that young lady was. But because she gave me the start, I have become a
successful man. I'd like to show my thanks to her.
                                                                                                                      Yours,
                                                                                                                      George Jenkins

quarter of the price the trader asked for.
     I have too many memories and experiences to share. I am so lucky to have been such a culture so
diffedent from my own. I will remember my trip to China forever!

Dear Zhang Hua, 
      Have you ever been to Thailand? It is a country in Southeast Asia. I've been in Thailand for a few days
with my parents. We are here for a holiday.
      Now we are staying in Bangkok(曼谷). It is the capital of Thailand and it is a very interesting place to
visit. Yesterday we visited some places of interest in the city. They are great! This morning we went shopping.
Bangkok is a wonderful place to shop for jewelry(珠宝)and clothes. My mother bought a nice necklace(项链).
My father and I bought some fashionable T-shirts.
      Thailand is called "Land of Smiles" because people here are very friendly. And it's true! When we eat in
the restaurants in Bangkok, the waiters are really nice and they are always smiling. Thai food is delicious, but
it is sometimes a little spicy for me. You can also get Chinese food here because a lot of Chinese people came
to live in Bangkok many years ago. Chinese food is very good, and it isn't as spicy as Thai food. Our American
food can also be found in Bangkok, however, I don't eat it. You know, I'd like to try new things when I travel.
      The weather has been very hot. Yesterday it rained and got a little cooler. But today it's hot again.
                                                                                                                       Yours,
                                                                                                                       Mary
