Dear Sirs/Madams£¬

I am writing here to recommend Gardening & Self-defense as my favorite elective courses.

It goes without any doubt that Gardening is among the most popular courses with us students, not only for the lecturer¡¯s unique way of organizing his classes but also for the great pleasure we gain from the hands-on classes. By the way, we¡¯ve learned a lot about plants and gardening. Some of us even feel like majoring in gardening at university.

Self-defense is another course that enjoys great popularity. In a world full of attacks and threats, it¡¯s useful and essential for us students, girls in particular, to learn how to protect ourselves in time of danger. Besides, students can take the opportunity to build up their strength. As far as I know, many more students intend to enroll for the course next term.

Hopefully, you can consider my recommendation.

Yours sincerely£¬

¡¾ÌâÄ¿¡¿To whom it may concern,

My husband Jim and I got married in 1965. For the first ten years of our marriage, I was very happy to stay home and raise our three children. Then about four years ago, our youngest child went to school, and I thought I might go back to work.

Jim was very supportive and helped me to make my decision. He started to do all the things I used to do around the house, and said he thought I could be a great success in business.

After several weeks of job hunting, I found my present job, which is working for a small public relation firm. At first, my husband was proud of me and would tell his friends, ¡°My clever little wife can run that company she¡¯s working for.¡±

But, as his joking words were becoming reality, Jim stopped talking to me about my job. I have received several promotions and pay increases, and I am now making more money than he is. I can buy my own clothes and a new car. Because of our combined incomes, Jim can do things that we had always dreamed of doing, but we don¡¯t do these things because he is unhappy.

We fought about little things, and Jim is very critical of me in front of our friends. For the first time in our marriage, I think there is a possibility that our marriage may come to an end.

I love Jim very much, and I don¡¯t want him to feel inferior(½Ï²îµÄ), but I also love my job. I think I can be a good wife and a working woman, but I don¡¯t know how. Can you give me some advice? Will I have to choose one or the other or can I keep both my husband and my new career?

Please help.

Yours,

Mary

The freezing Northeast hasn¡¯t been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say ¡°sunshine¡±. I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C(άÉúËØC), thinking of beaches and orange trees. When we touched down to blue skies and warm air, I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting, and pink sunsets(at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but the best part- particularly to my taste, dulled by months of cold- weather root vegetables- was a 7 a.m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers¡¯ market that proved to be more than worth the early wake-up call.

The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every Saturday from 7:00 am to 1 p.m, rain or shine, along North Lemon and State streets. Baskets of perfect red strawberries, the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all, the tomatoes: amazing, large, soft and round red tomatoes.

Disappointed by many a broken, vine-ripened(ÂûÉϳÉÊìµÄ) promise, I¡¯ve refused to buy winter tomatoes for years. No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home they¡¯re unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless. But I homed in, with uncertainty, on one particular table at the Brown¡¯s Grove Farm¡¯s stand, full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist. These were the real deal- and at that moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn¡¯t be experiencing again for months.

Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown¡¯s Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton, where- luckily for me- I was planning to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew I¡¯d be ordering every tomato on it.

¡¾2¡¿What made the author¡¯s getting up late early worthwhile?

B. Breathing in fresh air.

C. Walking in the morning sun.

D. Visiting a local farmer¡¯s market.

¡¾4¡¿What was the author going to that evening?

A. Go to a farm. B. Check into a hotel.

How to Be Happy in Your Life

Newborn babies are the happiest in the world. Unfortunately, as we grow up, worries start working up their way upon our minds. ¡¾1¡¿ However, we can achieve happiness again with just some small changes.

Make a choice. Happiness is a matter of choice. A person who knows how to be happy will always be happy, no matter what situation we put him into. On the other hand, a person who always finds faults with everyone and everything around him cannot be happy, no matter how hard he tries.

Laugh a lot. When we smile or laugh, the muscles in our face excite the brain to produce ¡°happy chemicals¡±. These chemicals make us feel happy. ¡¾2¡¿ Laugh at ourselves, laugh at our problems, laugh at our little worries and then see what difference it makes to our life.

¡¾3¡¿ Being angry with others at their mistakes will earn us nothing. Instead it will make us even more unhappy. Just letting go of others¡¯ mistakes every once in a while helps us to be happy.

Live out of the past. Often, the dark shadows from our past ruin every single second of our life and turn it into a bad memory. ¡¾4¡¿

Learn to give. Giving is a satisfying experience and the joy of giving cannot be expressed in words. One who gives all his life ends up leading a happier life than the one who concentrates only on receiving.

One must understand that happiness is a state ofmind. ¡¾5¡¿ Thus, the answer to the question ¡°how to be happy in life¡± only lies within us.

A. Forget others¡¯ mistakes.

B. Sounds silly, but it does work.

C. Finally, we forget what happiness is.

D. So, find humor in everything around us.

E. Start with little things and work up to bigger ones.

F. Nothing in the world can make us happy or unhappy, unless we allow it.

G. Let go of all bad memories preventing us from leading a happy life at present.
