The main purpose of newspapers are to provide news. If you examine newspapers closely, you would find there are all sort of news: accidents, floods, fires, wars, sports, books, etc. The news cover everything that happens to people and its surroundings. Sometimes there is some news which is very interested. A news report is usual short, except when it is very important, but has a plenty of information. It is also written in shorter paragraphs. The first paragraph is in fact a summary of news. It gives all the necessary information, what, when, where, how, and why.
Many people like to eat at a favorite restaurant on their birthday. Here are the tips about how to eat for free on your birthday.
Notice promotional (促销的) cards or signs at restaurants for their e-club or online notification of special offers. Sometimes it is called a birthday club. In some cases they ask for your email address and at other times, you register online from your own computer.
If you don’t know whether your favorite restaurant has an e-club, look them up online. Just search their name if it’s a chain. Look over the webpage for anything that says SIGN UP or JOIN. It may call it an e-club.
You will receive e-mail advertisements from them. If it asks for birthday and anniversary dates when you sign up, then the restaurant usually will send you a personal coupon and invitation for that event.
Check your e-mail the week leading up to your birthday. All the e-clubs that you signed up for will be sending their invitations.
Read the fine print on all the offers before deciding where to eat on your birthday. Some are only on the exact date.There may be other requirements, like free dessert when you buy an entree (主菜).
Choose the most inviting offer or over several days, and take advantage of free dining opportunities. __
| A．Anyway, look around for these offers and get signed up. |
| B．However, others may be for any time over a two-week period. |
| C．But how can we eat better in a free restaurant? |
| D．It would be an even greater treat if the meal or part of the meal were free. |
E. Why not celebrate your birthday for a whole week, not just one day?
F. Often the advertisements will include discount coupons(优惠券).
G. So don’t go to such restaurants.

Hi, everyone. What would you miss most and least if you were stuck on a desert island? For me, it would be the changing seasons in New England. I guess this will sound stupid but I’d probably miss the rain, too. I wouldn’t miss getting up at six every day to go to work, though! What about you? |
| Post 2 Tomas Germany |
Good question. Steve, I think I’d miss different types of bread, and shopping at the supermarket. I’d miss the food most. What would I miss least? My mobile phone. I’d like to be completely quiet, at least for a little while. |
| Post 3 Paola Italy |
I would miss the company of people because I know I’d like to have someone to share experiences with. I’d go mad on my own. And I surely wouldn’t miss junk mails(垃圾邮件). I hate coming home every evening with a pile of junk mails in my post box. |
| Post 4 Miko Japan |
Hi, I would miss Manga cartoon, the internet and Japanese food, like sushi. I’d also miss TV shows and shopping for clothes… In fact, I’d miss everything. |
| Post 5 Roger UK |
I would miss my daily newspaper and listening to the news on TV and radio. I’d feel very cut off if I didn’t know what was happening in the world. What I’d miss least would be traffic jams in the city, particularly my journey to work. |
| Post 6 Jayne |
Why hasn’t anyone mentioned their family? I’d be lost without my husband and two kids. They’re the most important for me. And I can’t get started in the morning without a cup of black coffee. I wouldn’t miss doing the housework! |
| Post 7 Jaime Mexico |
