Dear Jack,
It’s very kind of you to write me and let me know about your beautiful city. Now I’d like to tell you something about my hometown Dongming.
The city stands on the bank of the Huanghe River. It is a beautiful place for people to live in. Its economy has been developing rapidly in the past ten years. New factories, houses and roads have been built. More schools and hospitals are available for its people. However, there are still some problems, such as water and air pollution and heavy traffic in rush hours. In my opinion, Dongming should develop its economy scientifically; I would also think that the growth of its population should be brought under control so that we’ll have a better hometown in future.
Yours,
Wangwen

Dos and Don'ts for the 2008 Olympic Volunteers
It is reported that over 100000 people will be chosen as volunteers for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. What should the volunteers do and what should they not do?
Firstly,they should be polite and friendly to the athletes and visitors from all world,and avoid improper behaviour. Secondly,they should stick to their posts,offering good services,satisfying any reasonable needs and being ready to help those difficulty,and never fail to do their duty. Thirdly,they should introduce the Chinese culture and history to foreigners so that they may know China better,and never say or do anything that harms the image of our motherland.

【范文】
Should students make friends on line? Some people say yes. The internet helps make many friends, Chatting on line, students can more freely express their feelings and opinions, and even get help with their foreign language studies.
Others, however, think students should not. They say making friends on line is a waste of time, which should be spent more meaningfully on study. Besides, some students get cheated on line.
It is my opinion that students should place their study, health and safety before other things. As for friendship, we can readily find it in our classmates and other people around us.
