Dear Dad，
Happy birthday to you !
On this special day I’d like to talk to you 16 a special way．
I don’t think I am good at  17 you my thought face to face with you，so I’m writing to show my deep love for you．
You’re not a rich man or a famous person．But in my heart，you are one of the greatest  18 in the world．I am  19  you．
You are  20 interested in fame and wealth．You do  21  things like paying phone bills on time，and working as a worker in your factory．The smile on your face shows you are pleased with the family．You take good care of my grandparents．You help me with my schoolwork and do some shopping with Mom on Sundays．
In the past，I didn’t care  22 you were with me or not．Now I am sorry to say I  23 you the respect before．But I am thankful for what you have done for me． I am quite lucky that I have  24  a great father．And I feel happy that now I can let you  25 how much I love you．You are successful as a son，a husband，a father，and a friend．
Wish you happy forever!
Yours，David

Dear Mom and Dad,
I will go to Alice’s home with her after school, and I will have supper and sleep there. Don’t    21   about me. You know that Alice is one of my    22  friends. If you want to talk with me, you can    23   68610598 after 6:00 pm.
Please forgive me for not telling you first. I don’t think you will    24 me to do so if I tell you first.   25  I think teenagers should be allowed to stay at their friends’ houses sometimes. I am sixteen years old and I’m not a little kid    26 . I hope I can make decisions for    27  .
At home, there are too many   28  for me to obey: Don’t stay out so    29  ; don’t have meals before    30   hands; don’t watch TV without finishing homework, etc. Parents should be    31   teenagers, but we need freedom, too.
I don’t like doing my homework    32   at home. I’d love to study    33   Alice. We can learn a lot from each other.    34   please allow me to stay at Alice’s house once a week. If you    35  , Alice can stay at our house with me, too.
