In the past， many students practiced English with their pen friends — they sent letters to people all around the world. However， we now send emails to others and chat with people who live quite far away on the Internet.
Here’s some advice on how to succeed in your online language exchanges：
How to start a conversation when speaking English online When you speak to somebody online， start by asking “Yes or No” questions. Use questions such as “Do you like …?” or “Can you …?” or “Have you ever …?”
Remember your goal. You are trying to learn about the other person. Think about things you enjoy and try to find some common ground between you. And share your own experiences to show that you have similar interests. If you only ask questions， you will sound like a policeman or a policewoman!
How to keep a conversation going “Listen” carefully. In that way， you can get to know somebody well. When you know him or her well， you will have more to talk about.
Then ask follow-up questions. After you “listen”， use what you “hear” to learn more about that person. Use “open ended” questions， such as “What do you think of …?” or “What was the most interesting experience ...?”
Remember some basic rules for online language exchanges.
Be patient. Do not try to find a good friend right away.
Be careful. Don’t give any personal information on the Internet， especially your address， telephone number， and even your real name.

“Did you go skating a lot last year?” I asked. Jen shook her head and looked at me. Finally she said， “On Thanksgiving， Mom and I always went to visit some friends who lived on a farm. I especially loved seeing their big turkeys.”
Until then， I didn’t think about how Jen felt. She had a new stepfather (继父) and stepbrother，and had a new town and home， too. Jen and her mom used to live near a lake where Dad and I went every summer， and she had to move up north with us. She had more changes than me.
Jen seemed sad， so I was busy thinking of some ways to cheer her up on Thanksgiving. I told her my plan and she was excited. First we made a huge snowball， and then a small snowball. Then we built a wall behind the big snowball as a tail. Jen mixed some food coloring with water， saying， “We can spray (喷) colors on the tail.” Our snow turkey had a red， blue， green， and yellow tail. We were so busy that we didn’t notice our parents come outside. Dad found a hat for the snow turkey， and Mom wrapped her scarf around its neck.
“Thanks for cheering Jen up，” Mom said. “You’re a good brother， and you always come up with great ideas.’’ A happy feeling spread through me. I began to understand how much she cared about everyone in our new family.

One little miracle (奇迹) has been happening to me recently， and it gives me a special joy.
A few months ago， I was telling my daughter， Sally， some stories about my mother. My daughter was so young when my mother died that she doesn’t remember her well. I told her all I could remember， like how wonderful my mother was and how much she meant to me.
One day， Sally was sad because her grandmother was in heaven (天堂) and she couldn’t
see her. I explained that though her grandmother was dead， now she was still watching over us and could send us something to let us know she was there. She could be anywhere， even riding invisibly (看不见地) on the back of a butterfly (蝴蝶). Just after I said this， a butterfly flew down right by us， and we laughed happily.
Now many people would say it was just luck that the butterfly flew down at that time. A funny thing， however， has happened since then. Every time I go out in any type of weather I see butterflies. Very often they fly right by my face to get my attention. I always say hi to Mom，send her my love， and thank God for little miracles.
Everyone is always looking for some big miracles to come out and save them when they are in trouble， but they don’t notice the little miracles that happen every day right in front of their eyes. I know what they really are， however. For me little miracles are the best kind. So many little miracles happen around me all the time that I know they are not just luck.
