I am writing to you about volunteering at the library . I’m interested in computers and teaching ,and I want to volunteer as a computer teacher for people who lack computer skills.
I love working with computers and I’m good at explaining how to use new software to younger students at my school .I’ve taught my grandparents how to use e—mail and word processing software.
I like to help people to enjoy computers as much as I do ,so I think I’d be good at this job.
I want to help out as a volunteer at your library because I know that many people go there to use your computers.
I’m free to help on weekends and sometimes in the evenings.

Dear sir or Madam,
I believe that children should da some chores at home. I disagree that children’s only job is to study hard and do well at school. Of course it is important for children to study hard However ,I think it is unfair for children to expect their parents to work hard outside and do all the household chores to help their busy parents. For example , they should make their own beds and clean their own rooms because they are ones who use these. They may not have time to help with the other parts of the house ,but they should try to be responsible for their own areas. This will help them to grow up to be independent and responsible adults.
Yours truly

Dear Sir or Madam,
I don’t really agree with what parents are saying about after-school classes because they only seem to think about getting their children into good schools or having successful children . Although some parents are right about the importance of learning from a young age ,I think children should be allowed to be children and have a carefree(无忧无虑) childhood.
In my opinion, it is important for parents not to push their children too hard .I believe it is better if parents try to really understand their children’s interests and abilities first so that they will not make their children take classes that are not suitable for them.
Perhaps parents could let their children decide for themselves if they want to have any after-school classes they choose for themselves, they will benefit more from these classes , They will grow up to be not only successful in their own way but happy too.
Yours truly

An important event that I remember well was the Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami that happened on December 26,2004.The earthquake happened under the sea and caused a tsunami that killed many people and destroyed many places in different countries.
when I heard the news of the earthquake and tsunami,I was hanging out at my classmate’s house with my friends.My friends were eating snacks and playing computer games.
I remember this event well bacause my mother was in phuket（普吉岛）,Thailand at the time for her job,and phuket was one of the places affected by the tsunami. I was so worried and afraid for my mother that I cried.I went home immediately and waited for hours with family before we received the news that my mother was alive and safe.

Whales are huge animals. They live in the sea and eat small fish and other sea life. One interesting fact is whales can jump high out of the water. Some kind of whales are in danger because humans catch them for meat ,fat ,and oil, and use whale part to make candles and shop . whales are also in danger from water protection. We should protect whales by making rules on whale protection and by not putting rubbish into the sea . I think people should learn more about whales.。
