Dear Ming,

It was very nice to hear of you after such a long time. I’m glad to learn that you’ve been settled down in Boston and are getting used to the local ways of life. As you know, I’m still buried in books at school you are so familiar with. What may surprise you are that I’m going to the US this July to a summer camp! Surely I’m expecting lots of sightseeing tours, parties and another exciting things. We must definitely meet when it’s over. As is planning, I’m coming to Boston around the 15th, and I wonder if you’ll free then so we could chat about the good older days. Hope to see you soon.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 Yours,

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 Xiao Lei

He_ 33　 _his head and pointed to the two fingers he was hammering. The clerk__ 34　 him some nails. He picked out the right size and left. Well, Doc, the__ 35　 _man who came in was blind. He wanted scissors.__ 36　 _do you suppose he asked for them?” I lifted my right hand and made scissoring movements with my first two fingers. He burst out laughing and said, “Why, you fool, he used his_　 37　 _and asked for them.
