【正文】 means instead of writing letters to each other. So some people say that phones will kill letter writing. But I don’t think so. My argument that phones will not kill letter writing lies in at least three aspects. First, letter writing as a traditional way of munication still has some advantages over phones. For example, if people want to express something confidential to their close friends, they will turn to letter writing. Another example is that rural workers who are working far way from their hometown are more likely to write letters to their families than to make phone calls for the purpose of saving money. Second, letter writing is more authoritative and formal in some way. For instance, people who are doing business will write formal business letters to do a deal。 people who want to remend or introduce someone to someone else will write letter of remendation or letter of introduction。 people who want to apply for a scholarship will write a letter of application to a certain university, etc. Last but not the least, letter writing is still regarded as a token of friendship among friends. People always write letters to show their everlasting glove and affection. All in all, letter writing is still very popular among people. It is still a good way for people to municate with each other and it is impossible to be killed by phones. Just do as the saying goes, if you don’t want to be forgotten by your friend, then take up your pen and write him a letter. June 30Dear Jane, This morning Sandy came to tell me you are feeling very unhappy these days because you failed in the final examination of mathematics. As a close friend of yours, I just want you not to be so depressed and not to lose heart. You know there is no permanent winner, so don’t’ be so disappointed. Cheer up, my dear friend. Yours truly, Dan05 年The Importance of Extracurricular ActivitiesExtracurricular activities as part of college life are very important for the allround development of college students. However, I find there are still some students who neglect the importance of these activities. Evidently, extracurricular activities are important in many ways. Firstly, such activities can enrich college life. As an effective way of both physical and mental relaxation, extracurricular activities provide students with different opportunities to enjoy themselves and relax themselves. For example, after class students can participate in various ball games or colorful recreational activities. Secondly, such activities can help develop students’ sense of teamwork and cooperation with each other. For instance, when involved in group activities, students will realize the limitations of their individual effort and the strength of group work. Lastly, such activities provide the students with an opportunity to be sociable, which is surely helpful for them to municate with different people in the future after they graduate form college.In brief, extracurricular activities are of great importance to college student. Only when college students are fully aware of the importance, can they really enjoy their college life and have an allround development of their physical strength and mentality.

Yours truly, Tom2009Will Tourism Bring Harm to the Environment?　　In recent years, tourism has developed rapidly in China. Many people believe that tourism produce positive effects on economic growth and we should try our best to promote tourism. But what these people fail to see is that tourism may bring about a disastrous impact on our environment. As for me, I39。m firmly convinced that too much tourists bring harm to the environment. 　　The bad impact of tourism on the environment has mainly expressed itself in various ways. One way is the process of exploiting a new scenic spot. In order to attract tourists, a lot of artificial facilities have been built, which have certain unfavorable effects on the environment. This process usually breaks the ecological balance of the area. In some mountainous places, trees are being cut down to build hotels for others to see and explore the beauty of the mountains. Then land slides and mudrock flows e up. Another way the development of tourism has damaged the environment occurs when tourists go to scenic spots. Some tourists don39。t have the awareness to protect the environment, and ignorantly throw their garbage here and there. Some people even kill the local wildlife to eat, which badly damages the balance of the natural environment. 　　It is wrong to sacrifice the environment for the growth of tourism. We must keep in mind that too much tourists bring harm to the environment. We need to find a balance between satisfying the needs of tourists and reducing to a minimum the pollution they cause. 　　Section B 　　Dear Lily, I know you39。re looking for a parttime job in the ing summer vacation.
