Nearly a quarter of a century after a German boy threw a message in a bottle off a ship in the Baltic Sea, he's received an answer.
A 13­year­old Russian, Daniil Korotkikh, was walking with his parents on a beach when he saw something lying in the sand.
“I saw that bottle and it looked interesting，”Korotkikh told the Associated Press on Tuesday, “and it looked like a German beer bottle and there was a message inside.”
It said, “My name is Frank, and I'm five years old. My dad and I are travelling on a ship to Denmark. If you find this letter, please write back to me, and I will writ e back to you.” The letter, dated 1987, included an address in the town of Coesfeld.
The boy in the letter, Frank Uesbeck, is now 29. His parents still live at the letter's address.
The Russian boy and the German man met each other earlier this month through an Internet video link. The Russian boy said he did not be lieve that the bottle actually spent 24 years i n the sea. He believed it had been hidden under the sand where he found it for a long time.

Exploit your parking space
An unused parking space or garage can make money. If you live near a city centre or an airport, you could make anything up to ￡200 or ￡300 a week. Put an advertisement(广告) for free on Letpark or Atmyhousepark.
Rent(出租) a room
Spare room? Not only will a lodger(房客) earn you an income, but also, thanks to the government­backed “rent a room” programme, you won't have to pay any tax(税) on the first ￡4，500 you make per year. Try advertising your room on Roomspare or Roommateeasy.
Make money during special events
Don't want a full­time lodger? Then rent on a short-term basis. If you live in the capital, renting a room out during the Olympics or other big events could bring in money. Grashpadder can advertise your space.
Live on set
Renting your home out as a “film set”could earn you hundreds of pounds a day, dependin g on the film production company and how long your home is needed. A quick search on the Internet will bring up dozens of online companies that allow you to register(注册，登记) your home for free—but you will be charged if your home gets picked.
Use your roof

Smoking is bad for your health
As we all know, smoking is bad for our health. This is because a cigarette contains at least
two harmful substances—tar and nicotine, which will damage lungs and affect breathing. What's more, smoking causes many illnesses. Those who often smoke have bad teeth. A lot of people always cough because of smoking. One of the most serious illnesses caused by smoking is lung cancer. And many people died of this terrible disease. In addition, smoking is not only bad for smokers, but also bad for non-smokers, especially women and children.
As far as we are concerned, smoking is no good for health. Therefore, for the health of yourselves and also the people around you, please keep away from smoking.。
