The children of migrant workers who have remained in their hometowns while their parents work in the cities are known the "left-behind children" in China.
During the summer vacation, a lot of these children travel afar, often to a remote city and only for a short visit to see their . But meeting their parents doesn't mean these children are going to enjoy a enjoyable summer . Many of their parents are migrant workers who spend all day building houses or selling vegetables on the market.

When I was nine years old, I used to go to the post office with my mother, sending greeting cards to my aunt in Singapore. To me, these trips were really memories. And receiving mail through a mailbox outside our gate was just exciting. My small hands could get the mail without using a key! I always couldn’t wait to see how much I was . Oh, a letter! From Singapore! I would run back home and show it to my . When there was a letter for me, I wouldn’t run—I would open it right there.
After my family moved back to Singapore, I going to the post office. Years later, my company sent me to Shanghai, and the post office found me again. Two years ago I celebrated my with five friends on top of the mountain in Longsheng, China. At sunrise we up to a beautiful view from the mountain top. Later in the afternoon, as we were going the mountain and returning from the sunrise viewing place, a shop caught our attention. It only sold noodles, coffee and had a China sign.
We asked the owner if she could really send mail. She happily said yes. It seemed hard to believe we were at the highest top of the mountain. I picked one postcard out and asked my friends to write a birthday note. We bought a stamp, wrote some notes and gave the shop owner the postcard.
Three weeks later, I arrived home and my mailbox: Hello, postcard! I broke into a big smile.
That birthday postcard attracted me again to the post office and all its delights. I had the post office all these years. Today I send postcards to friends. And every time I am at the post office buying stamps, I cannot help but smile—how one postcard will make its way across the world and brighten up someone’s day.

The story tell us about the British writer, Richard Savage. He was once living in London with money in his pockets. In order to get some food and clothes, he wrote the story of his life and managed to have it published. But not many copies of his books were in the shops, and he was still living a hard life. Because of anxiety(忧虑)and malnutrition(营养不良)， he became very weak and before long he fell , and a doctor was sent for. The doctor was not rich enough, but was literature. He tried his best to cure Savage of his illness and a week later Savage was out of danger. When he finally recovered(重新获得) his , the doctor sent a bill to Savage for his , but poor Savage had no money to pay it. The doctor waited for a month and sent another bill. Receiving no money again, the doctor went to Savage himself.
"You know you owe(欠) your life to me," said the doctor, "and I should some thankfulness from you."
"I agree," said the writer, " you've done a great favour(恩惠) for me and if I'm not ungrateful for your kindness, I'll damage(损坏) my life to you."
With these words he handed the doctor two copies of The Life of Richard Savage.
The doctor took the books home and began to _ them carefully.
"I see I've the life of a great writer," the doctor said to himself with a sense of pride, Maybe this is the only thing I could be really of in my life."
Five years later Savage called on the doctor to pay his bill, only to find that the doctor had already passed away.
