Hello Sandy,
We have just come back from our vacation. We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors. This is a beautiful place. It is a park. There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with people, just sheep and birds.
Edward, who had just come out of , could not walk as far as he used to. However this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then at a cafe for lunch each day before going back to the place we lived. Edward and I in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for walk. Very pleasant!
Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter. It was very (we usually expect snow in January). It was all day, then snowed in the evening. Today we have bright sunshine!
Both Jenny and I are well. I don’t know if I told you in the last , that Jenny is now working in a hotel. Although she has to work hard, people there are nice and she is the work.
Please write to tell us your news.
Yours,
Victor

We know that trees are useful in our everyday life. They give us 1things, such as wood, oxygen, rubber（橡胶）, medicines 2many other things. They can also tell us a lot about our climate. The following are the reasons. If you cut 348a tree, you can see that it has many rings. Most trees grow one new ring 4year. Because of this, we know how old a tree is. A tree over a hundred 5means that it has more than a hundred 6. When the climate is dry or very cold, the trees do not grow very much and their rings 7usually thin. When it is wet and warm, the rings
8 thicker. If the rings are suddenly very thin or suddenly very thick, it means that the 9 changed suddenly. If we look at the rings on the tree, we can learn about the climate in the past years. We can see

Rachel lived in a small town in America. She always wanted to help others when she was young. At the age of 5, she learned about an organization named Locks of Love. It uses hair donations to make wigs (假发) for children who have 1 their hair because of cancer or other illnesses. Rachel then asked her mother to cut her long hair and send 2 to the organization.
At 8, she learned that other children had no clean 3 in Africa, and she was shocked. When her school began 4 money to build wells (井) there, she asked her parents to 5 holding her birthday party. Also, she asked her friends each to donate $9 to the project in Africa 6 giving her birthday presents.
One year later, it was her 7 birthday on June 12. She made a 8 page on the Internet with a goal of $300. However, Rachel was able to raise only $200. This made her a little 9 .
Unluckily, Rachel was badly hurt in an accident 10 eight days. That was a terrible shock to her friends. They wanted to find some ways of showing 11 to her. They began donating on Rachel’s birthday page. Donations 12 her $300 goal quickly and kept rising.
When it was clear that she would 13 come back to herself（苏醒）, her parents donated her organs (器官) to other children. They also donated her hair a 29 time to Locks of Love.
More 14 was being raised. The total donations soon reached $100,000, then $300,000. So far more than $850,000 has been raised from all over the world, including donations from the Africans who are moved (感动) by the little American girl.
