Dear editor,

I’m a senior 3 student. My name is Li Ming. Recently I have made a survey among 50 boys and 50 girls. The result of the survey is as follows: What the boys like to do is to become businessmen and scientists. Only a few boys want to be teachers. It is interesting that the number of boys and girls who want to become doctors is equal. As for lawyers, more boys expect to have this job. However, there are still students who are not clear about their future.

Yours

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 Li Ming.

In the last 500 years nothing about people-not their clothes, ideas, or languages has changed as much as what they eat. Chocolate drink was first made from the seeds of the cacao tree by South America Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became popular. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important places. Some still exist today. The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the years of 1845-1846, and thousands more were forced to go to live in America.

W: What kinds of questions have you got?

M: You took and English class from Professor Wood, didn’t you?

W: I sure did.

M: Well, I’ve heard lost about him and I’m thinking about his classical literature in English class next term.

W: Don’t do it.

M: What do you mean? You didn’t like the class?

W: The class was interesting enough, but Professor Wood is one of the most difficult teachers I have ever had. He expects a great deal from his students, so if you plan to take the course, be prepared to work very hard. I remember doing homework for at least thr5ee hours a day, just for his class. It was very tiring because I still had to do the work for all my other classes.

M: What about the man himself? Is he reasonable?

W: Yes, he most definitely is. He loves his students and is very understanding of our problems. He was always available before, during, and after classes to help us with any ideas we couldn’t understand. He was always open to differing points of view and was willing to listen to whist we had to say. I really liked him as a person. I just hated all the reading we had to do in classical literature.

M: Well, I happen to like classical literature.

W: Then, you’ll love the class.
