Postcards From The World
While the sun washed over the grass of my grandmother’s front garden, I sunk into the familiarity of one of her armchairs. Life, as I knew it, had changed. My beloved grandmother, my nanny, a standin parent in the absence of my father, had cancer. It was terminal, and could never be cured.
As she watched Getaway on television, she remarked to me that she’d never left Australia and that now she never would. I swallowed the sadness that came with knowing that chapters of her life were to be left unwritten.
At work, feeling helpless, I wiped tables and took orders and thought. HARD! The Saturday afternoon lunch rush was not enough to lull me from my thoughts. Wracked with grief, I pondered the power of Facebook and the collective strength of human empathy. I raced from the end of my shift to ask strangers on the internet for help.
“My Nanny Del has cancer.It’s terminal and she will never see the world. Please send her postcards so she can see the world from her armchair: I can offer nothing but gratitude.〞
I resolved not to breathe a word of this; should nothing e, I couldn’t bear to carry her disappointment along with my own. Should something wander into our humble little letterbox, I would consider it a blessing and embrace it like I embraced her little, shrinking frame.
Days turned to weeks and Nanny’s health worsened rapidly in the early months of 2018. Life took me through my fulltime
study, babysitting and waiting tables, along with the responsibility
of caring for a grandparent who was too sick to care for herself. As I helped Nanny in the early hours of those mornings, she would chat to me, sometimes joys, other times, sorrows. Whatever she shared became precious.

One afternoon, finally, a postcard from the United State arrived in our letterbox. It was about a grand celebration of the Easter, where people were making and sending colorful eggs and bunnies. It was obvious that the American friend just wanted to offer my grandmother a good wish, encouraging her to fight against the cancer bravely. Without any hesitation, I ran to my grandmother excitedly, postcard in hand tightly. Though a bit weak, my grandmother gathered her strength and asked me to read it to her. Those words and the picture brightened her inner world of enjoying the world. From that day on, postcards from different corners of the globe streamed in our humble letterbox. (102 words)

Day in and day out, we enjoyed the splendid history and culture of China, journeyed through the beautiful scenery of northern Europe, experienced the hardship when passing through the Sahara Desert. Every destination
brought my grandmother endless joy and inspired her to face the disease with great hope. Those precious moments couldn’t keep my grandmother stay with me longer. However, it was people’s kindness that warmed o ur last dark days. (108 words)
参考范文：
One afternoon, finally, a postcard from the United States arrived in our letterbox. The simple postcard from America to our sleepy little seaside town in Australia was to me a beacon of light. I held it tight in my hands, read and reread the words scrawled across the back: Nanny Del, thinking of you in Michigan, USA, ... From that day, our letterbox became the destinatio n for postcards from all over the world. Our letterbox became a hotel, acmodating travelweary cards from everywhere: India, Italy, China, and Japan. The cards were love and mementos from all corners of the globe. I sat next to my Nanny, reading the cards to her. Tears of happiness mixed with grief fell onto those postcards.
In the months that followed, her living room became a departure hall and our fl i ghts d e parted daily. Her hospital bed became an airport lounge, where we researched and planned our next departure. We visited Milan and cruised the Japanese Sea before hopping over to Taiwan. We travelled the entirety of the United States. Nanny hung out for every visit from the postman, eagerly awaiting news of her next departure. "I just can't believe strangers did this for a little old lady they’ve never met" became a sentiment she murmured many times. I reached out to the senders; reminding them that they’d impacted strangers in a way they’d perhaps never know. Our travels took us far and wide. Cancer could not stop us.。
