To: The Manager of Mezzo Mash Restaurant
Dear Sir,
Last Tuesday evening I went with two friends to your restaurant for my 18th birthday. I ’d booked the table for eight o’ clock and we arrived about ten minutes late, but that was not a problem.The waiter, who was very polite, showed us to our table and we studied the menu. I ordered a fish pie and my friends ordered some salads. However, after about fifteen minutes, the waiter told us that there was no more fish pie. He apologized and suggested ordering something else. I looked at the menu again and decided to have the same as my friends－a salad.
When the food came, it was very good. After we finished, we decided to order some desserts（餐后甜点）. The waiter said that, unluckily, it was too late. There wasn’t enough time for us to order desserts. He said he was very sorry but our table was booked by another group at nine thirty and we would have to leave.
We paid the bill and left feeling very unhappy. It ruined my birthday. Nobody told us when we arrived that there was a time limit (限制). It was very unsatisfactory and I doubt that We’ll go to your restaurant again.
Yours faithfully,
Martin Cary

Childhood is an unforgettable time full of funny and amazed stories. Be a child, I wrote my last will. All my toys are to go to our cat, my room—to Tom, the local beggar who always said “hi" to me kind. My textbook about politeness was to go to my brother, so we had had a fight not long before. I brought the list to my aunt, who was the lawyer. She sent copy of my list to all our relatives and then put the original on her desk in to a frame. That way, I laughed at by not only my family but all my customers.

Few things feel as painful as rejection. Rejection means not being invited to a friend's party. Rejection means having your actions criticized. Rejection means failure when you're trying to sell your idea. Every "no" indicates a door closed to you. 1.
Developing your self-confidence is key. Rejection is simply the reaction or opinion of another person. 2.Never think you are worthless or unlovable.

Rejection will enhance （增加）whatever negative things you say to yourself. Even the most successful and confident people feel downhearted when rejected, but most of them never tell themselves how terrible they are. 3.Make sure what you say to yourself builds yourself up instead of tearing yourself down.
4. Instead, they view it as an opportunity to further understand human relationships and inner strength. They avoid the pain of rejection and put rejection into context （情境）.Using rejection to your advantage involves looking on every blow as a learning experience. It also involves learning and growing from negative voice.
5. You can feel the pain as you like, crying or locking yourself in, but don't let it become a long-term visitor. It is wise for you to respond positively and effectively.

B. It's powerless without your cooperation.
C. So you should practice positive self-talk.
D. It's normal to feel upset about rejection.
