Dear Lin Xin,
Thank you very much for your e-mail! I love fall, too. In Canada, we have a holiday called Thanksgiving Day in fall. Family members（成员） always celebrate it together. People often eat turkey and pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving Day. On that day, I usually go to my grandparents’ house. My uncles, aunts and their children are there, too. We all enjoy ourselves on that day.
In Canada, Thanksgiving Day is in early October. In the USA, they celebrate Thanksgiving Day in late November.
I remember your birthday is in September. Have a good time on your birthday, Lin Xin! On my birthday this year, I had a cake with thirteen candles. Everyone sang the song “Happy birthday”. Then I blew out the candles! Do you have a cake for your birthday?
Your friend,
Tom

In America, many teenagers have a part-time job. A part-time job is one that you do a few hours each week to make money. Do you have a part-time job?
Teens can have many different kinds of part-time jobs. Some teens work in a grocery(杂货) store bagging groceries. Others may work in other local business such as the clothes store or drag store. You may have friends who work in a fast food restaurant. They may make the food, or keep the restaurant clean. Many teens make extra money by baby-sitting younger children in the neighborhood. Some teens even have their own business. They cut grass and take care of pets in their neighborhoods while other people are on vacation.
Most teens who have part-time jobs work only a few hours after school, maybe two or three times a week. They often have to work all day on Saturday.
Having a part-time job has many advantages. The job teaches you new skills that you can use as an adult. The job also teaches you responsibility(责任). The person who paid you for the job expects you to be there when you are supposed to and to do your job well. The job also pays you money that you can use for many different things. Your family might need the money to help with the family budget(预算). If you're lucky, you could use the money to buy music and videos. You might want to save the money to buy a new bicycle or maybe even a car.
In some families, teens have part-time jobs to help make money to go to college. Going to college is very expensive. Many parents cannot pay for their child's education without help from the child. In some families, at least half of what a teen makes at a part-time job goes into a college savings account(账户). The teen can spend the rest of the money on what he or she needs or wants.
Many teenagers have part-time jobs and still have time for their friends and families. Many still belong to clubs at school and even have time to play sports. If you have a part-time job，you need to have a good plan to help you do everything you want and have to do. Do your homework and chores as soon as you can. Don't let the work wait and pile up(堆积). Make sure you get to your job on time. Do the things that are most important to you. Spend time with the people you care about most.

In 2004, three young men went to a dinner party in San Francisco. Afterward(过后),they wanted to share(分享) a video from the party with their friends. They wanted to send it over the Internet. But at the time, the process(过程) of sharing videos that way was difficult. Using e-mail did not work and the friends complained that there, was no website to help them. So they created their own. They called their website YouTube. It made sharing videos easy, so the website soon became very popular. People watched 2.500 million videos in the first six months!
Today, more than 70,000 new videos go up on YouTube each day. People watch more than 1,000 million videos a day. Many last no more than 10 minutes. These videos show all kinds of things, from sleeping cats to earthquakes. Most of the filmmakers are not professionals. They are just everyday people making videos, and they use the website in many interesting ways.
First many people use YouTube to entertain others. One example is Judson Laipply. He made a funny dance video and put it on YouTube in 2006. People watched the video more than 10 million times in the first two weeks. Now people stop Judson on the street to ask, "Are you the dance guy on Youtube?" Some people have invited him to dance at their parties. A few women even asked to marry him. Judson wants to make more dance videos, and people look forward to seeing them.
Other people use YouTube to advertise a business. David Taub does this. He is a guitar teacher and he sells videos of guitar lessons on his own website. He wanted to increase his business, so he put short videos with free lessons on YouTube. People enjoyed watching the lessons on YouTube, and afterward, many decided to go to David’s own website. Now David sells hundreds of guitar lesson videos each week.
People also use YouTube to help others. Ryan Fitzgerald is one example. Ryan is friendly young man who knows that some people are lonely and have no one to talk to. One day, he made a video of himself for YouTube. In the video, he gave his phone number and invited people to call him. In less than a week, he had more than 5,000 calls and messages from all over the world. These days, he is very busy talking on the phone. He helps people when he can, but mostly, he just listens, like a friend.
Finally, some filmmakers use YouTube in a more serious way. They want to inform people about important events happening in the world. For example, they show clips(片段)of videos from countries at war, or they show people in need of help after a storm. Sometimes TV news shows do not give enough information about these events. Thanks to YouTube filmmakers, people can go to their computers and learn more.
For many people, YouTube is more than just another website to visit. It is a way to communicate with others. More and more people are using it every day, and they will probably find even more ways to use it.
