Dear Laura,

I just heard you tell an old story of gift giving and unselfish love in your program. You don’t know whether it is true that such unselfish love would happen in today’s world. Well, I’m here to give you    .

I wanted to do something very        for my fifteen-year-old son, who has always been the perfect child. He worked all summer to earn enough money to buy a used motorcycle. Then, he spent hours and hours on it     it looked almost new. I was so proud of him that I bought him the shiniest helmet(头盔)and a riding outfit(全套装备).

I could hardly wait for him to open up his gift. In fact, I couldn’t sleep the night before. Upon awakening, I went to the kitchen to         the coffee, tea, and morning dishes. In the living room was a beautiful keyboard with a       : “To my wonderful mother, all my love, your son.”

I was so surprised. It had been a long-standing joke in our family that I wanted a piano so that I could take lessons. “Learn to play the piano, and I’ll get you one” was my husband’s promise.

I stood there shocked, crying a river,    myself how my son could    this expensive gift.

 Of course, the house awoke, and my son was very pleased with my reaction(反应). Many kisses were exchanged, and I immediately wanted him to     my gift.

As he saw the helmet and outfit, the look on his face was not exactly what I was expecting. Then I realized that he had sold the motorcycle to get me the keyboard. Of course I was the proudest mother ever on that day, and my feet never hit the ground for a month.

So I wanted you to know, that kind of love is    present and lives even in the ever-changing world of me, me, me!

I thought you’d love to    this story.                                 Yours,

                       Hilary

Dear Laura,
Thanks for your message. Yes, I’m having  a great time on my exchange program in France. It’s even  better  than I thought it would be. I was a bit nervous before I   arrived  here, but there was no reason to be. My host family is really nice. They go out of their way to  make  me feel at home. And you  wouldn’t  believe how quickly my French has improved! I’m very comfortable  speaking  French now. Although I still make lots of mistakes, it doesn’t bother me like it used to. My  biggest  challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table. As you can imagine, things are really different from the way they are at home.  For example, you’re not supposed to  put  your bread on your plate. You’re supposed to put it on the table! I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now I’m used to it. You’re not supposed to eat  anything  with your hands except bread, not even fruit! (You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork). Another thing is that it is very rude to  say  you’re full. If you don’t want any  more  food, you should just say, “It was delicious.” Also, it’s rude to put your hands  in  your lap. You should always keep your hands ,but not your elbows, on the table. I have to say, I find it difficult to  remember  everything, but I’m gradually  getting  used to things and don’t find them so strange any more. I’ll write soon and  tell you more about life in France. Hope you’re having a good school year.
