Dear Jim,
I am glad that you are willing to tell me something in your life. You told me you like playing with the cellphone recently and you feel you won't live without the cellphone. I advise you to learn to control yourself and try not to play with the cellphone so frequently.
At first, it's a waste of time to spend too much time playing with the cellphone. If you play with the cellphone frequently, you will have no time to do your homework, and your study will be affected. Furthermore, your eyesight will be affected, too. Besides, playing with the cellphone on the streets is very dangerous.
I hope you can spend less time on the cellphone, and spend time on something meaningful.
Yours,
Li Hua

美篇导读
《汤姆叔叔的小屋》是美国作家哈里特·比彻·斯托(斯托夫人)于1852年发表的一部反奴隶制小说。这部小说中关于非裔美国人与美国奴隶制度的观点对当时的社会产生了深远的影响,并在某种程度上激化了导致美国内战的地区局部冲突,是19世纪的畅销小说之一。
美篇呈现
Uncle Tom's Cabin (Excerpt)
At this moment, the door was pushed gently open,and a young quadroon woman, apparently① about twenty-five, entered the room.
There needed only a glance from the child to her,to identify② her as its mother.There was the same rich,full, dark eye, with its long lashes; the same ripples③ of silky black hair.The brown of her complexion④ gave way on the cheek to a perceptible flush, which deepened as she saw the gaze⑤ of the strange man fixed upon her in bold and undisguised admiration.Her dress was of the neatest possible fit, and set off to advantage her finely moulded shape;—a delicately⑥ formed hand and a trim foot and ankle were items of appearance that did not escape the quick eye of the trader, well used to run up at a glance the points of a fine female article.
“Well, Eliza ”said her master, as she stopped and looked hesitatingly at him.
“I was looking for Harry, please, sir;”and the boy bounded toward her, showing his spoils, which he had gathered in the skirt of his robe.
“Well, take him away then,”said Mr Shelby; and hastily she withdrew, carrying the child on her arm.
“By Jupiter,”said the trader, turning to him in admiration, “there's an article, now!You might make your fortune on that ar gal in Orleans, any day.I've seen over a thousand, in my day, paid down for gals not a bit handsomer.”
“I don't want to make my fortune on her,”said Mr Shelby, dryly; and, seeking to turn the conversation,he uncorked a bottle of fresh wine, and asked his companion's opinion of it.
“Capital, sir,—first chop!”said the trader; then turning, and slapping his hand familiarly on Shelby's shoulder, he added—
“Come, how will you trade about the gal —what shall I say for her—what'll you take ”
“Mr Haley, she is not to be sold,”said Shelby.“My wife would not part with her for her weight in gold.”
“Ay, ay!Women always say such things, cause they ha'nt no sort of calculation.Just show'em how many watches, feathers, and trinkets, one's weight in gold would buy, and that alters the case, I reckon.”
“I tell you, Haley, this must not be spoken of; I say no, and I mean no,”said Shelby,decidedly.
汤姆叔叔的小屋(节选)
正在此时,门被轻轻地推开了,一位大约二十五岁的年轻的第二代混血女子走进了房间。
这个女子一看就是那孩子的母亲。她的黑眼睛同样柔和,长长的睫毛,纤细的卷发似波浪般起伏。当她发现一个陌生男子如此大胆且毫不掩饰地以一种赞赏的目光盯着她看时,她那棕黄色的面庞上泛起了一抹红晕。她整洁、合体的衣着更加衬托出身段的苗条,她那纤纤细手以及匀称的脚踝使她的外表更加端庄。奴隶贩子以敏锐的眼睛贪婪地观察着,女黑奴那娇美的身体的主要部分被看得一清二楚,这一切都没能逃过奴隶贩子的眼睛。
“伊丽莎,有事吗 ”看着她欲言又止的样子,希尔比先生问道。
“对不起,先生,我在找哈里。”孩子跑到母亲面前,并拿出衣兜中的战利品向母亲炫耀着。
“那你就带他走吧。”希尔比先生说。她抱起孩子,匆匆忙忙走了出去。
“老天!真是好货色,”奴隶贩子向希尔比称赞道,“随便你什么时间将这个女人送到奥尔良,都会赚一大笔钱。我见过有个人花一千多块买了一个女奴,但那女奴的姿色可是不能和这个女人相媲美的。”
“我可不想靠她来发财。”希尔比冷冷地回答道。他又打开一瓶酒,岔开了话题,并问对方对酒的评价。
“味道很好,希尔比先生,酒是上等的酒!”奴隶贩子称赞道,然后转过身来像熟人似的拍着希尔比的肩又说,“哎,把那女奴隶卖给我行吗 我出什么价你能接受 你要价多少 ”
“赫利先生,我不会卖掉她的,”希尔比先生说,“即使你付与她同样重的金子,我妻子也不会答应让她走的。”
“哎,女人总是这样小家子气,因为她们算不清账。如果你告诉她们,那么重的金子能买多少块钟表,多少个小饰物,她们就会改变主意,不再那样说了。”
希尔比先生语气坚定地说:“赫利,我说不行,就是不行。你不要再提这件事了。”

素养链接
《汤姆叔叔的小屋》这部小说被认为是刺激19世纪50年代废奴主义兴起的一大原因。《汤姆叔叔的小屋》对美国社会的影响是如此巨大,以至于在南北战争爆发的初期,林肯接见斯托夫人时说:“你就是那位引发了一场大战的小妇人。” 后来,这句话为众多作家引用。

Thus, it's our duty to protect our environment. First, we should save every drop of water, such as turning off the tap after using it. Second, we should save energy, such as turning off the lights when we leave,doing more walking and so on. Third,we should ask our government to control the pollution which is from the factories.
Let's act now to save our environment. If everyone makes a contribution to protecting the environment, the earth will become much more beautiful.

Dear Jim,
I am glad that you are willing to tell me something in your life.You told me you like playing with the cellphone recently and you feel you won't live without the cellphone. I advise you to learn to control yourself and try not to play with the cellphone so frequently.
At first, it's a waste of time to spend too much time playing with the cellphone. If you play with the cellphone frequently, you will have no time to do your homework, and your study will be affected. Furthermore, your eyesight will be affected, too. Besides, playing with the cellphone on the streets is very dangerous.
I hope you can spend less time on the cellphone, and spend time on something meaningful.
Yours,
Li Hua

美篇呈现
Uncle Tom's Cabin (Excerpt)
At this moment, the door was pushed gently open,and a young quadroon woman, apparently① about twenty-five, entered the room.
There needed only a glance from the child to her,to identify② her as its mother. There was the same rich,full, dark eye, with its long lashes; the same ripples③ of silky black hair. The brown of her complexion④ gave way on the cheek to a perceptible flush, which deepened as she saw the gaze⑤ of the strange man fixed upon her in bold and undisguised admiration. Her dress was of the neatest possible
fit, and set off to advantage her finely moulded shape;—a delicately⑥ formed hand and a trim foot and ankle were items of appearance that did not escape the quick eye of the trader, well used to run up at a glance the points of a fine female article.
“Well, Eliza ”said her master, as she stopped and looked hesitatingly at him.
“I was looking for Harry, please, sir;”and the boy bounded toward her, showing his spoils, which he had gathered in the skirt of his robe.
“Well, take him away then,”said Mr Shelby; and hastily she withdrew, carrying the child on her arm.
“By Jupiter,”said the trader, turning to him in admiration, “there's an article, now!You might make your fortune on that ar gal in Orleans, any day. I've seen over a thousand, in my day, paid down for gals not a bit handsomer.”
“I don't want to make my fortune on her,”said Mr Shelby, dryly; and, seeking to turn the conversation,he uncorked a bottle of fresh wine, and asked his companion's opinion of it.
“Capital, sir,—first chop!”said the trader; then turning, and slapping his hand familiarly on Shelby's shoulder, he added—
“Come, how will you trade about the gal —what shall I say for her—what'll you take ”
“Mr Haley, she is not to be sold,”said Shelby.“My wife would not part with her for her weight in gold.”
“Ay, ay!Women always say such things, cause they ha'nt no sort of calculation. Just show'em how many watches, feathers, and trinkets, one's weight in gold would buy, and that alters the case, I reckon.”
“I tell you, Haley, this must not be spoken of; I say no, and I mean no,”said Shelby,decidedly.
汤姆叔叔的小屋(节选)
正在此时,门被轻轻地推开了,一位大约二十五岁的年轻的第二代混血女子走进了房间。
这个女子一看就是那孩子的母亲。她的黑眼睛同样柔和,长长的睫毛,纤细的卷发似波浪般起伏。当她发现一个陌生男子如此大胆且毫不掩饰地以一种赞赏的目光盯着她看时,她那棕黄色的面庞上泛起了一抹红晕。她整洁、合体的衣着更加衬托出身段的苗条,她那纤纤细手以及匀称的脚踝使她的外表更加端庄。奴隶贩子以敏锐的眼睛贪婪地观察着,女黑奴那娇美的身体的主要部分被看得一清二楚,这一切都没能逃过奴隶贩子的眼睛。
“伊丽莎,有事吗?”看着她欲言又止的样子,希尔比先生问道。
“对不起,先生,我在找哈里。”孩子跑到母亲面前,并拿出衣兜中的战利品向母亲炫耀着。
“那你就带他走吧。”希尔比先生说。她抱起孩子,匆匆忙忙走了出去。
“老天!真是好货色,”奴隶贩子向希尔比称赞道,“随便你什么时间将这个女人送到奥尔良,都会赚一大笔钱。我见过有个人花一千多块买了一个女奴,但那女奴的姿色可是不能和这个女人相媲美的。”
“我可不想靠她来发财。”希尔比冷冷地回答道。他又打开一瓶酒,岔开了话题,并问对方对酒的评价。
“味道很好,希尔比先生,酒是上等的酒!”奴隶贩子称赞道,然后转过身来像熟人似的拍着希尔比的肩又说,“哎,把那女奴隶卖给我行吗?我出什么价你能接受?你要价多少?”
“赫利先生,我不会卖掉她的,”希尔比先生说,“即使你付与她同样重的金子,我妻子也不会答应让她走的。”
“哎,女人总是这样小家子气,因为她们算不清账。如果你告诉她们,那么重的金子能买多少块钟表,多少个小饰物,她们就会改变主意,不再那样说了。”
希尔比先生语气坚定地说:“赫利,我说不行,就是不行。你不要再提这件事了。”

《汤姆叔叔的小屋》这部小说被认为是刺激19世纪50年代废奴主义兴起的一大原因。《汤姆叔叔的小屋》对美国社会的影响是如此巨大,以至于在南北战争爆发的初期,林肯接见斯托夫人时说:“你就是那位引发了一场大战的小妇人。” 后来,这句话为众多作家引用。
