Dear Linda,
I’m glad to hear from you and I would like to be your pen friend. In your letter, you said you wanted to know something about my school life(生活).
I walk to school at 7:30 every morning because the school is near our house. When I get to school at about 7:45, I often do the cleaning with my classmates. After that we do some reading for half an hour. We have four lessons in the morning. I often have my lunch at 12:00 at school. We usually have two lessons in the afternoon. The school is over at about 5:00 and then I go home.
My favorite subject is Chinese. I like all the teachers because they are friendly. I am keen on sports and I enjoy playing football best. I’m a member of our school football team. What about your school life?
Best wishes!

A scientist name Charles had a strange idea．He wanted to invent a new kind of car which could go without a driver．It could also be used as a living room．That means you can go anywhere on your sofa in the car．You might say that it's impossible．But Charles succeeded in making it in a factory and named it Tridika．
Tridika has no wheels and it starts working when it reaches the magnetic levitation tracks（磁悬浮轨道）．It takes its energy from its tracks．And it works in the same ways as a magnetic train．It moves very fast．As everyone knows，cities are developing rapidly．There are more and more cars running on the road．So parking space is limited．Sometimes it's hard to find a place to park（停车）．Tridika can solve this problem easily because it needn't park on the ground．Actually，it can park on the outside wall of the building with the help of an elevator system（电梯系统）．In this way，much parking space can be saved．When Tridika parks itself in front of your apartment，you can get into your room directly．Of course，there must be a side door in the outside wall．Then Tridica becomes another living room．It's really amazing，isn't it？
Tridika can hold six passengers．So you can go on vacation in it with your family in your free time．of course it can also be sued as an office while you are traveling on the road．That is to say，you can travel and work at the same time．

Letter A Young people are always told that they should make the most of their time，that they will never be as free again So，my question is﹣why fill up all this free time with housework？Parents expect their children to get good grades，be good at sports，and be popular with other kids．However，there is not enough time in the day to do these things and then do housework as well．It's not fair to expect teenagers to give up their precious time to do boring housework．Parents and children both have jobs．Parents'jobs are in the workplace．Their children's jobs are at school． The only difference is that parents get paid and children don't．Parents say that they make their kids do housework to teach them responsibility．But this is just a trick．Parents trick their kids into doing housework because they are lazy． Yours， Overloaded |
Letter B Both parents and children have jobs．The parent's job is to go to work to earn money．The child's job is to go to school．But we all get huggry．Someone has to cook the meals and clean up afterward．We all wear clothes that get dirty．Someone has to wash them，iron them，and put them away．Chlidren work from 9 until 4．Parents work from 8 until 6．Sure，after 4 o'clock，children have homework．But after 6，parents have homework too．They have to do the shopping，go to the bank，pay the bills，and help their kids with their own homework! I think it's only fair that teenagers help out a bit at home．They might not like it，but it's good for them．It teaches them how to look after themselves．This is really useful when （93） ． Sincerely， Overworked |

I was a schoolgirl in Grade 7when Danny came to my school and became one of my classmates．He was handsome with blond hair．so many girls in my class liked him very much．Every day，his parents picked him up in an old car．We all realized he was from a poor family．I had a poor family as well，but I just hid it from everyone．I was afraid the kids in my class would leave me if they knew the truth．
One day，Our teacher，Mr．Sims，announced that we would have a field trip．We decided to go to an amusement park．My classmates were excited．I sat back and looked at them，knowing that my parents did not have the money to send me．To my surprise，Danny stood up and said simply，"I won't go with you，My dad hurt his back and lost his job．I am not asking my parents for money．"
"Danny，I'm very proud of you for understanding the situation that your parents are in．"Mr．Smis replied．"But the trip is at the end of the month，we have plenty of time to raise money for it．"While walking home from school that day，I noticed three boys talking with Danny．I was a little worried that they were giving him a hard time．But as I got closer，I found they were only discussing how to raise money for the trip．
By standing up and admitting（承认）he was poor，Danny changed my life．I no longer felt I had to lie about my family's situation．As for Danny，I will remember his courage and honesty forever．
