Dear Mrs Jones,
How is everything going?
Knowing your sixteenth birthday is coming, I'd like to say "Happy birthday" to you! I go to London and lived in your family one year ago. As a exchange student, I couldn't adapt(适应) ourselves to the new living environment and lifestyle there at first. It was you which told me not to be nervous and helped me get used them. Stay with you has become the most unforgettably experience for me now. Would you like to come to China to have visit me? If so, I'll show you around my city but take you to taste local delicious food. I'm sure you will like it.
I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

That's not the case for Yang Yang, a 14 - year - old from Changsha, Hunan province. She has moved many people by being honest and considerate. It was a day in April when Yang was getting ready to eat in a local restaurant. But then she accidentally dropped a plate full of food. She stood still and was at a loss. The restaurant manager was nice. She comforted Yang, saying "It doesn't matter. We can give you another meal for free."
Everyone thought that this small matter would end like that. But, when Yang left after eating, the waiter found 75 yuan in cash and a note on the table. The note said, "I'm sorry that the money might not be enough to make up for your loss, but that's all I have. Thank you for your kindness." The manager was deeply touched after reading the note. The money was probably a week's worth of pocket money for the girl.
The manager posted about this on social media and called for a search for this young girl. Many newspapers, including People's Daily, re-posted it and joined the search. Finally, Yang was found after her teacher heard about the story.

I live a SOHO life. I work at home and my company has closed several offices. Some companies that introduced home working didn't have much success. I don't think they should go back to making all their workers working in offices. Instead, it would be better to retrain their managers. Managers who deal with home workers have to be able to develop team spirit among home working people. They must be in regular communication with people in their teams, but not always be checking-up on them.
Simon
Talking with my coworkers at the office is enjoyable. However, most of the office talks are time-wasting and nothing to do with work. Sometimes it is very troublesome. I have worked at home for over 20 years. Every three months I have to return to my office for a meeting. I quite enjoy the time spent there. It's all good fun, but I am really surprised to see how much time people waste there. I haven't had great success in my job, but I've been at home to see my children grown up.
James
I used to hate working at an office. People stood behind me and talked loudly. I am a soft- ware developer and I have to focus on my work. I found I work much better at home where no one breaks my thinking. However, it's really important that you control yourself and carry on with your work no matter where you are.
Paul
Two years ago, I started working from home. At first I enjoyed being at home. I could eat when I wanted to and wear whatever I liked. However, after a bit I missed meeting with my coworkers. Now I have moved into an office and just do one or two days at home. I feel I work better because I am not in the same place all day. I think a bit of both is the best choice.
