First, I advised her to gather courage to confront the difficulties instead of escaping from them. Furthermore, I made every effort to establish companionship and mutual trust with her.

Dear Bob,
How are you!I'm glad to write the letter to tell you something about fishing.
On a sunny morning in summer,my father and I drove to the seaside to fish. We took some clam worms,some bread and water as well. On arriving at the seaside,I felt comfortable. Bathed in the sea wind,I felt relaxed. Then we took our fishing poles out,put clam worms on the fishhooks and threw them into the sea. Then we waited patiently. After a while, my father got a fish. However,I lack such knowledge of fishing. So my father constantly gave me some advice,which benefited me a lot. Then I fished a lot.
At five o'clock,we returned home,feeling tired but happy.

Yesterday once more
When I was young,
I'd listen to the radio,
Waiting for my favorite songs.
When they played I'd sing along①,
It made me smile.
Those were such happy times

How I wondered where they'd gone.
But they're back again
just like a long lost friend.
All the songs I love so well.
Every sha-la-la-la,every wo-wo.
Still shines.
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling,
That they're starting to sing,
So fine.
When they get to the part,
Where he's breaking her heart,
It can really make me cry,
Just like before,
It's yesterday once more.
Looking back on how it was
in years gone by②,
And the good times that I had,
Makes today seem rather sad.
So much has changed.
It was songs of love
that I would sing to then,
And I'd memorize each word.
Those old melodies③,
Still sound so good to me,
As they melt the years away④.
Every sha-la-la-la,every wo-wo.

回头看,
岁月如何消逝,
这些旧日的好时光,
使今天显得令人哀伤。
变化多大啊!
这些爱之歌,
那时我跟唱着,
我会记住每一句歌词。
那些熟悉的旋律,
在我听来还是那么好,
好像他们把岁月消融。
每一句sha-la-la-la,每一句wo-wo。
仍旧闪烁。
每一句shing-a-ling-a-ling,
就在他们放声歌唱时,
如此美妙。

Yesterday once more《昨日重现》是一首追怀旧情的感伤之作。经历过一系列失恋打击、身处孤独之中的歌手原本是收音机的忠实听众,常常跟随电波中的一曲曲情歌吟唱。后来,陷入爱河的她不再有闲暇去收听音乐广播了,与收音机渐渐疏远。而今,为情所伤、心如死灰的她再度打开收音机,熟悉的旋律重新响起,一声声、一曲曲仿佛正讲述着自己的身世。Unit 2 Section Ⅲ Developing ideas & Presenting ideas

这些旧日的好时光,
使今天显得令人哀伤。
变化多大啊!
这些爱之歌,
那时我跟唱着,
我会记住每一句歌词。
那些熟悉的旋律,
在我听来还是那么好,
好像他们把岁月消融。
每一句sha-la-la-la,每一句wo-wo。
仍旧闪烁。
每一句shing-a-ling-a-ling,
就在他们放声歌唱时,
如此美妙。
我所有美好的记忆,
清晰地重现。
有一些仍能使我哭泣,
正如从前一样,
仿佛昨日又重现。

Yesterday once more《昨日重现》是一首追怀旧情的感伤之作。经历过一系列失恋打击、身处孤独之中的歌手原本是收音机的忠实听众,常常跟随电波中的一曲曲情歌吟唱。后来,陷入爱河的她不再有闲暇去收听音乐广播了,与收音机渐渐疏远。而今,为情所伤、心如死灰的她再度打开收音机,熟悉的旋律重新响起,一声声、一曲曲仿佛正讲述着自己的身世。
