Dear Jane,
Hello, Jane. I want to tell you anything about my trip. Yesterday it was sun and a little windy. I went to a park for a trip with my classmates. Since a park is far away, we took a bus to there. What beautiful the park was! We swam in the pool then played volleyball. We took a lot of food and eat it for lunch under a big tree. Then we listened to musics and had a rest. In the afternoon, we went fish and took lots of photos. Both of us had a great time in the park.
Yours,
Gina

9 . I dropped out of college after my freshman year. Three years later, I quit a dead-end job and returned college. I saw school as my way out. But I quickly found myself facing the same roadblocks that had caused me to quit before: I was confused with college-level algebra and a heavy workload of reading and writing assignment. Moreover, I was unsure of my career direction. I was ready to drop out again. Then a smartly-dressed woman walked confidently to the front of my English composition class. “Look at you! Look at each and every one of you,” she said. “You’re here to change your lives for the better. And you’re going to make it!” I can’t remember the rest of the speech, but it changed the course of my college career and my life.
Mrs. Smith didn’t know me from any of the other 40 faces in her classroom, but I felt she speaking directly to me. Having trouble keeping up with the workload? Break it down into small pieces, and set up a schedule that suits you. If college algebra is too difficult, drop back to introductory college math. As for English composition, she gave us writing assignments we could relate to. “Go for the best, kid. You’re worth it,” she’d say.
I graduated from that college and went on to get my bachelor’s degrees. Today, as a college instructor, each fall when I stand in front of a new class, I think of Mrs. Smith and how much teachers can affect their students. She couldn’t have known it when she gave that pep talk, but she made a huge difference in my life.

Stepping into a pool of water is common enough ,but who could ever imagine stopping into a pool of fish ?In February of 1974, Bill Tapp ,an Australian farmer ,saw a rain of fish that covered his farm . How surprised he must have been when he heard many fish hitting against his roof!
What caused this strange occurrence ?This is a question that had long puzzled people who study fish .The answer turned out to be a combination of wind and storm.
When it is spring in the northern part of the world ,it is fall in Australia, Throughout the autumn season ,terrible storms arise and rains flood the land .The strong winds sweep over Australia like huge vacuum（真空） cleaners, collecting seaweed ,pieces of wood , and even schools of fish .
