Dear Li Ming,
I'm writing to give some advice on time management for the coming college entrance exams.Firstly,it's wise to mark the date of the exam on your calendar once you register for it so that you can plan out how much time you need to give yourself to prepare.Secondly,make a schedule of the months or weeks leading up to the exam.Finally,you can plan out the time you're to devote to the subjects with which you struggle most.
Have confidence in yourself and may you make it in the exams.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Paragraph 1:
That afternoon,Mrs White took him aside again.She asked Timothy when he was going to give them to the boy,Tim.He said he had already handed the plastic bag to him.Timothy looked around to make sure no one was close enough to hear their words and said,“He said he would take them,so together,we decided that the safest place for them would be in the corner by your desk until the end of the day.”
Paragraph 2:
That evening Mrs White telephoned Timothy's mother.Mrs White told his mother about Timothy giving clothes and shoes to a boy.Timothy's mother was not a bit surprised at what the teacher said.It seemed from her tone of voice that she didn't think he had done anything special.When Mrs White saw Tim wearing his“new”clothes in the weeks that followed,she knew both boys had learned a life lesson:little gestures from the heart mean so much.

My favorite sport
My favorite sport is basketball because it has helped me believe in myself.
I used to be very shy,always afraid of failure.When I first laid my hands on the ball,I thought I would never be able to play it properly.As I practiced and my skills improved,I found myself much more confident.I understood that I was able to achieve my goals if I worked hard enough.I now not only have the courage to try new things but I'm less frightened of people or unexpected situations.
Dear Lucy,
Knowing that you are interested in Chinese culture,I'm writing to invite you to attend a calligraphy class with me this weekend.
The class will be given at 9 this Saturday morning in the city library and it is free of charge.In this class,the teacher will tell us the history and some interesting stories of calligraphy.Besides,we will appreciate some great calligraphy works by some famous artists.More importantly,we can learn some basic skills in calligraphy,which must be very interesting.I'm sure you will have a better understanding of Chinese culture through this class.
I'm looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
Dear Editor,
I'm writing to express my concern about the life of the elderly.
It's a good idea for us students to visit the aged at weekends to keep them company.Besides,we can organize some activities like singing,dancing and traveling,thus enabling them to lead a more socially active life.What's more,convenience should be provided in public places like supermarkets and hospitals.
Caring for the elderly is a virtue,which will contribute to not only a happy family but also a harmonious society.Therefore,let's do something to make a difference.
Yours,
Li Hua

When I was loading up my backpack,Mrs Sather asked me to go to her.Smiling gently,she asked if I'd like to have a try.“But I'm not good at writing and I'm afraid to mess things up,”in a low voice I said.Mrs Sather patted me on the shoulder,saying,“Don't worry,dear.From your writing,I know you are a brave girl inside.All you need to do is overcome your fear and take the first step.You can do it.I have faith in you.”

Paragraph 1:
At the age of 13,I found myself deeply interested in English.In addition to reading English textbooks,I have already developed a good habit of reading English magazines,listening to English programs,and keeping a diary in English.What's more,I have accumulated quite a lot of vocabulary,which has greatly expanded my horizons.No matter how hard my learning environment was,I could see a light of hope and continue to keep moving on and never give up.Although I frequently experienced many problems in my studies,I tried my best to overcome them.With over 10 years of English self-study,my hard work paid off and I eventually became an English teacher.
Paragraph 2:
My story proves everyone has the ability to learn.Success is related to hard work and persistence,but not related to IQ.That's to say,more efforts should be made to put English learning plans into practice.Never lose heart when you are depressed.Never let disappointment control you when you are in trouble.Only in this way will you win.

Paragraph 1:
The boy headed back down to the old man's house with the figurine.Afraid as he felt,he still knocked on the door,waiting breathlessly.Finally,it opened and out came the old man.Seeing the boy holding a well-wrapped dog figurine,he looked very astonished but still glared at him without a word.Determined to break the ice,the boy gave the old man the gift with a card attached,expressing his care.The old man was so moved by all the boy did that words failed to convey his emotions.“Thank you so much!”he said to the boy gently and kindly.
Paragraph 2:
From that day on,something changed inside the old man.The neighborhood always found the old man hanging out and smiling at everyone.He showed his precious collections to children actively and warmly.He used to collect figurines in memory of a real live dog which had kept him company for a long time before it died.But now,he wasn't drowned in the sorrows and loneliness anymore.He had realized the true spirit of life.
