Dear Michael，

How’s your vacation? I’m visiting my uncle inSpain. He lives in the sunny and beautiful city of Valencia,in Spain.

Yesterday,I had great fun. My uncle took me to the tomato festival in Bunol,which is just 30 miles away from where my uncle lives. You have probably never heard of this festival before. Neither have I. The tomato festival is called “La Tomatina” in Spanish. It was the biggest and messiest tomato fight in the world. When we first got to the square where the festival took place,it was very crowded with people from all around the world,and many trucks were carrying tomatoes. My uncle told me the crowded people here were around 38,000，and this was more than four times

the population of Bunol.

The tomato fight started as soon as the first banger was beaten. Then everyone including me started throwing tomatoes at each other. I took red tomatoes and threw them at anyone that ran， moved，bent down,or turned around. Tomatoes must be squashed(捏扁）before people threw them in order not to hurt anybody.

After a little while,the streets,the people and the nearby buildings were all splashed(溅起） with red. There was no winner in this fight,but we all had fun. As soon as the second banger was beaten,people stopped throwing.

I really had a great time. I wish you were here,too. I hope to hear from you soon. Take care. With love,

Linda

My secret for staying young is simple. Put all attention to the most important part of you— your brain,and keep it young and growing. Keep your mind awake and you’ll stay young all over. These are exciting times. Take an interest in the world around you,and stick to learning at least one new thing every day.

No matter how old you are,it’s not too late to make your life more interesting. I know a housewife with no knowledge before,who made herself into a well-known industrial engineer. I know a retried(退休的）electrical engineer who has become a highly-paid ceramic(陶器的）artist.

Get over the idea that you are ever too old to go back to school. I know a man who entered medical college at 70. He got his degree with honours and became a famous doctor. Another man went to law school at 71,and now an active lawyer.

Staying young is easy for those,old or young,who live in the future. You can do it if you care enough to try. Keep your mind awake and active. It’s the only elixir(灵丹妙药）.

In Britain,you’re allowed to drive a car when you’re seventeen. You have to get a special two-year driving licence before you can start. When you’re learning,someone with a full licence always has to be in the car with you because you are not allowed to drive the car on the road alone. You don’t have to go to a driving school—a friend can teach you. The person with you isn’t allowed to take money for the lesson unless he’s got a teacher’s licence.

Before you’re allowed to have a full licence,you have to take a driving test. You can take a test in your own car,but it has to be fit for the road. In the test you have to drive around for about half an hour and then answer a few questions. If you don’t pass the test,you’re allowed to take it again a few weeks later if you want to. In 1970,a woman passed her fortieth test after 212 driving lessons!When you’ve passed your test you don’t have to take it again,and you’re allowed to go on driving as long as you like,if you’re healthy. Britain’s oldest driver was a man who drove in 1974 at the age of 100.

Before 1904,everyone was allowed to drive,even children. Then from 1904,car drivers had to have a licence. But they didn’t have to take a test until 1935. In the early days of car driving,before 1878，cars weren’t allowed to go faster than four miles an hour,and someone had to lead the car with a red flag (旗).
