Of all the recreations we enjoyed, a morning walk might be the most rewarding. In city like Chengdu and Hangzhou where can hardly avoid heavy traffic, it’s only in the morning that the roads are not crowded. It is hardly any traffic and one can enjoy the walk. In the morning the nature is at its best. Having a look at leaves of trees and you’ll find pearls of dew (露水) on it. Flowers wave their heads gentle and spread their pleasant smell. A walk in a big park or the bank of a stream is even more refreshing. A 20-minute walk every day gets people to look 5 years young.

What I Regret
At lunchtime, Jimmy, Patrick, Devon, and I began our regular routine of our lunches. I glanced across the busy cafeteria and saw the _________ student, Joel. He was holding his plate and waiting in lines.
Patrick _________ him too. “Why’s the new kid dressed like the headmaster?” he asked. Devon and Jimmy laughed.
“Joel’s cool. He’s in my English and history classes,” I said. However, I kept the _________ that Joel and I had become friends when we worked on a project together. We _________ that we were both enthusiastic readers — something I would never admit to Patrick, Jimmy, and Devon.
I saw that Joel was _________ toward us. “Don’t do it,” I thought, but in seconds he was at our table. My friends raised their eyebrows. Jimmy, Devon and Patrick piled their backpacks on the table and chairs so that there was no _________ left for another person to sit down. Patrick said, “I don’t think we have room.”
This _________ situation froze the air. I could _________ Joel looking at me, but I stared at my _________ as if it contained precious pearls of wisdom instead of rice and beans. After a long, uncomfortable pause, Joel ____________. I ____________ have spoken up for him, but I couldn’t walk away from my three friends, could I?
Joel didn’t speak to me after that ____________ He was soon ____________ around with another group of kids. A few months later, I saw an announcement about Joel being chosen to be president of the class book club. I was ____________ for Joel’s achievements, but I realized I had made a big mistake____________ I said nothing at the lunch table that day. Why was I so ____________ that my friends might find out that I like to read?
As I stared at the announcement, I knew I needed to ____________ to Joel even if he did not want to become my friend again. I was certain that my three friends would not ____________.

Letters last forever!
When was the last time you actually wrote a letter? People now mail fewer letters. The trend in mailing less correspondence is likely to continue.
1. Maybe widespread use of e-mail and cheaper long-distance calling make letter writing less appealing. Using newer forms of communication is certainly easier than writing a letter. 2..
Consider how we use the newer forms of communication. Both phone calls and e-mail are quick ways to keep in touch with our friends. 3. However, reading our letters again and again can help us feel close to the people who sent them.
Although letters take longer to write, they are certainly a more memorable way to communicate. 4. Once the ideas are organized, the words need to be written down on paper. The effort to put ideas on a page frequently deepens our thinking. The person who receives our letter gains insights about our beliefs, rather than simply receiving a short response to an e-mail.
Although phone calls and e-mails are important forms of communication, I believe that we should all take the time to master the skill of writing a good letter. True, writing a letter does take more time, but that is the benefit of a letter. By taking more time to compose our thoughts, we become more thoughtful. 5.. We create a meaningful memory that the recipient can return to again and again.
A.Chances are, it has been awhile.
B.In doing so, we create more than just a note.
C.They often save handwritten letters for many years.
D.For example, much thought is involved in composing a letter.
E.There are probably many reasons why people mail fewer letters today.
F.I think that the drawback with phone calls is that we can’t save and print them.
G.However, I think that replacing handwritten letters with e-mails or phone calls is a poor choice.
