A survey has found that college students in China prefer paying bills through mobile phones.

1 hate to complain (抱怨)，but recently one thing really makes me feel worried. Last weekend* my mother and I went to your store and bought & beautiful set of furniture(家具).However, h 5meUs bad all the time. It kind of becomes s big trouble in our house. We are not able to sleep well at night We have to sleep wit Endows open in such cold winter. Even so, the bad doesn't go away at all. However, my father has got a bad cold because of sleeping with the windows open at night I'm afraid that terrible smell will do more harm to our health. Tin very upset about the bad influence brought to my family.
If you could do something necessary to change this Situation for example change it with another qualified (合格的)one for this or give our money back, I would be thankful.

In the early days of TV, there were often dramas on during the day. Back in those days, it was traditional for the husband to go out to work and for the wife to stay at home and look after the house and the children.。
