  • Dear Sir or Madam,
         Last Thursday, I traveled on the 8:00 a.m. train from Glasgow to London King's Cross and I was quite
    angry with the service of your company.
         The train didn't come on time and it was forty minutes late when it left Glasgow. A man at the station
    said sorry to us, but he didn't give us any reasons for the delay (误点). We then had further delays on the
    way and had to wait another thirty minutes . As a result, I missed my plane from London to Frankfurt and
    had to wait for several hours.
         What's more, the service on the train was also very poor, The trip took more than five hours. Unluckily,
    we could buy nothing but some soft drinks on the train. Worst of all, something was wrong with the air
    conditioning (空调系统) and it got hotter and hotter in the train . Before we reached King's Cross , the
    temperature was over 40℃.
          Because of your poor service , I feel you should pay me compensation (赔偿).
          I am looking forward to hearing from you.
                                                                                                                                        Yours faithfully
                                                                                                                                        David Robertson

         If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers (青少年).Today, many
    teenagers are overweight, and some of this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love
    food with a lot of fat, oil, salt, and sugar. People often call this kind of food"junk food".
         But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don't have
    breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don't have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent
    survey (调查) at one school, scientists found that over two-thirds of the students didn't follow a healthy
    diet (饮食). They didn't like vegetables, and many of them didn't like to eat fruits. They preferred to eat
    food with a lot of salt, sugar, or fat.
         Parents today also worry about their children's diet. Some doctors give the following advice:
    ★ Teenagers shouldn't eat too much junk food.
    ★ Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day.
    ★ Teenagers need to eat breakfast every day. This is good for their body and mind.

          On a Friday night, a poor young violinist (小提琴家) was playing his violin at the entrance of the subway
    station. The music was so great that people slowed down to listen and put some money into his hat.
         The next day, the violinist came to the entrance again. He put down his hat as usual. Beside the hat was a
    piece of paper with some words on it. It said, "A George Sang has put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Welcome to claim (认领) it." Soon the people were all attracted by the words and wondered what it could be.
    After a while a man rushed through the crowd, took the violinist's shoulders and said, "I knew you would
    certainly come here." The violinist asked, "Did you lose something?" "Lottery (彩票)." The violinist took out a
    lottery ticket with Sang's name on it and danced happily.
         Sang was an office worker. He bought the lottery and won a prize of $500,000.But when he gave $50

    student. That morning, he was going to fly to Vienna for high-education. However, when he found the ticket,
    he cancelled the flight and retuned to the entrance.
