7、Dear Future Me,

Happy 30th birthday! It's me, your 20-year-old  1 . Do you still remember the day when you wrote this e- mail?

The other day, Rachel was having her 30th birthday, and she was  2  out thinking that she had achieved nothing. It  3  me that I should make resolutions about what I want to  4  before my 30th.

This idea got me to   5  my future. Before, my life was   6  with the only theme ---college. Now, looking  7  , there will be people I have to get along with though I may  8  them, and things I have to deal with which I   9   to regard as worthless. The way to  10  is not cold war or stubbornness(固执)  11  compromise and communication.

What I am going to  12  is a society, not a locked classroom. So what are you doing? Do you still lock yourself up when you  13  people around?

I know I am shy and only  14   my attention on study. But I  15  hope that you are not like me, a mind easily affected by the outside world. After years of experience, hopefully you have  16   out of that small world and hold a place of your own.

_17  , there are also things that I don’t want you to change. Are you still the guy who  18  his judgment and has faith in life? Remember: try to find something  19_ in spite of difficulties.

I hope you are the way I want to be. But no matter what you are doing or what your life is like, I’ll always  20  you. Just be happy and healthy. That’s all I asked for.

Yours

6、Be sure to book a table if the restaurant you choose is an expensive or a popular one. You will feel embarrassed to show up without booking and having to wait for a table, leaving very bad impression on your friend, especially your girl friend.  Also, be sure to check to see if you need to be properly dressed and tell your friend ahead of time what to wear.

When your food arrives, proper dining manners make you eat at a right pace so that you have time to talk. A good measure of how fast you should eat is to count 10 seconds between each mouthful and it’s bad manners if you eat too fast and then spend the rest of the time watching your friend eat.

Don’t make noise when having soup and chewing, or chew with your mouth open.

Your napkin (餐巾) should be placed on your lap at all times. Don’t put it in any other place. If you have to get up, place it neatly on your seat.

When eating, put your fork straight in your mouth. Don’t place your fork in the side of your mouth as it increases the chances of dropping your food, which could be very embarrassing. If you get food stuck in your mouth, don’t pick it out with your fingers or fork at the table. Excuse yourself and go to the restroom and get it out with a toothpick.

When dining, keep your eyes on your friend at all times and try to smile between mouthfuls. Sometimes, you should make an effort to show some interest and ask questions like, “How do you like the beef?” If she needs, you are the one who is supposed to flag down the waiter by a gentle wave of the hand until someone notices you.
