Dear Sir / Madam,
I live next to your school in Grasmere Road and I am writing regarding the very bad behaviour of some of your younger students. In addition to this,I should like to bring to your attention to the irresponsibility of certain members of your staff when supervising (监督) students,evening activities.
Firstly,concerning the students' behaviour,I should like you to make it very clear to those students walking along Grasmere Road towards the station that my front garden is not a place where people are allowed to leave their rubbish. When they leave school in the afternoons,they pass my house and throw empty cans,waste paper and even cigarette packets(although most of them are below the age for smoking) on my grass.
Could you also please ask your students not to .... shout and use bad language in the street,as this is harmful to the reputation of both your school and the area?
Regarding certain members of your staff,you are perhaps unaware of the fact that their evening activities sometimes continue well beyond ten and the noise is too loud. Last Thursday night the noise did not stop until 10:30 pm. Surely the members of i staff supervising these activities could bring the events to a close at a suitable moment.
I know that I am speaking for many families in the area when I ask you to speak to your students and staff about these matters.
Should they continue to be so inconsiderate,I shall be forced to take matters further and shall have no choice but to write to the council(地方议会) .
Yours faithfully,
Mrs J Barker

You will probably never find his name in a history book,but to this day,Walker Lee continues to contribute to American heritage (遗产) .Walter Lee is an old-fashioned,modern-day blacksmith(who makes and repairs things made of iron) , still practicing the fine art of shaping metal over a hot fire.
Walker Lee began his career in hand-forged (手工锻造的) ironwork at the age of 30.The idea of creating an object out of iron,an extremely hard material,appealed to him. He started on this new business by collecting and reading every book he could find that described the process of black-smithing,including its history,its practical and decorative uses,and the equipment.
During the course of his research,Lee discovered a tool necessary for the success of any blacksmith: the anvil,a heavy block of iron or steel on which a blacksmith shapes the hot metal with a hammer(锤子) .
Lee bought his first anvil from 84-year-old Hurley Alford Templeton of Philadelphia. It weighed 100 pounds. The anvil cost him $100,and four months later,he paid $75 for another anvil from Cornell University in New York.
When building his blacksmith shop,in the interest of economy,he constructed it out of inexpensive wood. It was a simple little building that stood for only nine years. Lee replaced his first shop with a finer one made of more expensive wood.
The very first object Lee forged in his shop was a long,pointed Hudson Bay knife. As he recalls that event he says, “From the minute I first saw the thing take shape,I was attracted ...still am. There's something magic in it. You heat it up and pound it with a hammer and it goes where you want it to go."
Years later,at a family event,Lee,discovered that his Italian ancestors were expert coppersmiths (铜匠) .During the gathering,Lee's great uncle Johnny said that Lee’s love for blacksmithing was “in the blood,” and he happily presented Lee with a new 125-pound anvil.
