Dear editor,
Mary is my friend and she is a very good-hearted girl. She’s always the first to help out others. But her habits make me mad sometimes and she just won’t change her ways. For most situations, that’s just fine with me, as I know it’s what make her who she is. However, sometimes it’s just so hard for me to bear her behavior. She has recently got a cellphone, but she often borrows mine to make calls. My phone has a chain with it. She always tries to open it like her own phone. I usually open it for her, but not always, as sometimes I’m driving my car, so she needs to get it out of my purse and open it herself.
This weekend we were at a party in a faraway village. She borrowed my cellphone. As it was cold outside, I let her take it outside without opening it. Now it’s broken because she didn’t open it properly. I wouldn’t be so mad, but over the weekend she also borrowed my car and never offered to pay for the gas, which made me very angry. She should have offered to pay for the gas. As I have mentioned, she’s the type to help out others when and where she can. Perhaps because of that, she thinks others should also do the same for her. Sometimes I just think she is very childish. I don’t want to hurt her, but I do want to let her know that not everyone can accept that. What should I do to let her know that?
Yours,
Lily

AAAGH! The Generation 90s is coming!
Wearing earphones, using complex Net language and constantly text messaging friends, the Gen-90s following the Gen-80s begin to make their world debut(初次登台).
Each generation or age group has its own symbols and lifestyle.Read on and judge for yourselves if you fit the Gen-90s profile.                
Earphones
These little devices seem to grow on the heads of the Gen-90s.They might lead to MP3, MP4 or MP101 players, giving these young people a plugged-in,cool and perhaps self-addicted look, of course, life is not always music to the ears.      
Martian language
They have created their own code-like online language.It’s a mixture of English, Japanese and Chinese that perhaps only Martians can understand.This is an imaginative generation, though they need to be careful to keep it out of their term papers.                 
Self-Portrait
Saying “cheese” to their own digital cameras is routine for this generation.A little bit of narcissism (自恋) never hurts anyone.It helps them reflect a little on their own lives.But be aware of the risks of posting private photos online.
