Dear Editors,
On my way to work every morning I drive by a farm where I can see some horses off in the distance in the woods. They are there every single morning no matter how cold or rainy or windy it is. There is a shed(牲口棚）on the farm, but it doesn't look to me that the horses are ever taken into the shed. Is this right? I don't think horses should be treated like this.
Sam
Dear Sam,
Thanks for taking an interest in these horses. Problems about the care of horses are different from cats and dogs. Think of wild horses that spend their whole lives outdoors finding whatever food and shelter（遮蔽物）they can on their own. The point is that horses don't require as much shelter as a lot of other farm animals. However, that doesn't mean that they don't need some shelter.
It is hard to tell from your letter whether the situation for these horses is unacceptable. Above all, do you know the people who own the horses well enough to just talk to them as a neighbor and express your concern (关注)? Maybe they will tell you that the horses do go in the shed at night.
If direct contact (联系）is not a choice and you can see that the horses' situation is poor, then call 911, report the situation and ask law enforcement officers (执法官员) to look into it.
If you just can't see enough to prove such a report, call the Oswego Court Humane Society on 207-1070 for help from the Large Animal Assistance Project (LAAP). A volunteer from the project will help solve the problem.
Speaking of volunteer assistance, since you appear to be a horse lover, why not talk to the LAAP about volunteer opportunities for you? It's big job, but totally rewarding, and the project always needs knowledgeable horse people to help.
（1）Sam writes to the editors in order to ____________.
A.ask how to keep horses in changeable weathers

D.describe some beautiful horses he has seen
（2）Compared with cats and dogs, horses ________.

A.To ca ll 911 for help.
B.To find a volunteer from the LAAP.
C.To contact the horses' owner directly.
D.To call the Oswego County Humane Society.
（4）In the last paragraph of the second letter, the editors _______.
A.hope Sam can be more knowledgeable
B.stress the importance of volunteering
C.encourage Sam to join the LAAP
D.suggest Sam change his job

Smart phones had become part of our daily life. No matter who we are, we can see people busy play with their smart phones. Smart phones benefit them. They help us escape the pressure of life and get informations. However, if we spend too much time on them, we won’t have time to contact face to face our friends or family. And our life, study and work will hurt. In my view, we should limit to our using smart phones except for a purpose of learning. Meanwhile, it’s absolute necessary for us to take part in more outdoors activities.

Things change so quickly! I'm now in hospital recovering from liver failure. I regret take those weight-loss pills. They contain a harmful chemical that is caused my liver to fail. The pills were going to complete destroy my liver if I continued taking it. My mother insisted sending me to the hospital, when I received good treatment.
It was a really painful experience, but I'm feeling better now. I follow my doctor's advices and exercise for at least half an hour every day ( but I seldom go to the gym!) and ate a lot of fruit and vegetables. People should love their bodies. My mother is right: don't damage your healthy for a slim and attractive figure. It isn't worth it. We shouldn't be ashamed of the way we look, shall we?
