题目内容
was now 2011, so I decided to open it. This is what it said:
Dear Sherri,
By the time you read this, you will be 30. At the age of 18 I had many hopes and dreams about you.
Right now I hope you have traveled and seen everything you've always wanted to, both in Canada and
abroad, maybe you have even settled (定居) down somewhere in France, and maybe you are working
in the field of art. I hope you're married to Gwynn -- the man of your dreams. You'll probably have two
children - a girl and a boy.
If everything goes okay, you'll be living in France in a big house in a small town with Gwynn and
your two children. You are doing research in painting. Gwynn will be a computer programmer and you
will be doing all right for yourselves.
However, if things don't go according to plan, I wish you love, happiness and joy.
Love,
Sherri "18"
When I read this, I was surprised. So much of what I wanted has come true.
I did travel to a few more places in Canada. I've traveled to the UK, Australia and Egypt. 3I have
been living in France for nearly 4 years in a big house, in a small suburb (郊区), in a major city. I am an
art teacher in a university. I have two lovely kids.
But not everything went as what I hoped. I married a man named Tom Rees, and he is an excellent
artist. We are doing all right for ourselves.
4I find it cool how the dreams of a young girl can become a grown woman's reality (现实).

High in the mountains, and deep in the forest, lives a lake with many plants and animals in and around her. The plants and animals have enough food and clean water to keep them healthy. The wind carries pure air, and the rain comes down clear and clean.
But recently, Lucy Lake and her friends haven’t been feeling very well. All the plants and animals get together to talk about the problem. “Why are we sick?” “What can we do?” ask all of them. No one has any answers.
Just then two hikers appear. The animals tell them about their problems. “Can you help us?” they ask. “Yes,” one hiker says. “I think it’s because of acid rain.”
“Acid rain comes from chemicals(化学物质) in the air. The pollution comes from factories, cars and trucks.”
“So, although I don’t want to, I help the pollution travel through the air!” says the wind. “And I carry it to the land!” cries the rain.
“If you can help us think of some solutions(解决方法), we will send a message to tell people how to clean up our environment,” one hiker says.
With the help of the plants and animals, the two hikers make a list of ideas for saving Lucy Lake and her friends.
Time passes, and the forest and lake begin to feel a little better.
The next time the hikers climb up the mountains to Lucy Lake, they smile at what they find. “We’re glad things have started to change,” one hiker says. “And we’re glad you helped us make a difference,” says the other.
