A Happy Family
I have a happy family. Though there is only a little furniture in my home and everything in the rooms seems rather disorderly, I love my home very much.
My father is an engineer, nearly fifty years old. As a Party member, quite often he works late into the night. He even forgets himself when he is reading. Once when having supper, I found that the soup tasted watery. It soon became clear that my father, deep in his reading, had forgotten to put salt in the soup.
I have a kind mother. She is a primary school teacher. She loves her pupils and her job very much and puts all her heart into her work. All our clothes are made by tailors, for she is too busy to sew for us. As a housewife, she has to do almost all the housework. So she is the busiest one in our family.
We all keep a lot of books and we love reading. During our leisure time, reading is our main hobby. Evening is the happiest hour in our family. We usually sit in my parents room, reading and discussing everything we're interested in.
I love my family. It not only gives me much happiness and warmth but also teaches me how to be a real man.

Dear Dick,
How time flies! I'm very glad to hear from you again. You want to know what is going on in schools in China. In a word, everything has changed. Every school takes part in the campaign of reducing learning load. In the past, I used to study until 11,30 at weekends. But now I can arrange things' on my own, such as reading books, visiting museums, or taking computer lessons in my weekend days. In the evenihg I can watch news on TV, orread newspapers. What's more, my parents support me. They said although I was a student, I didn't have to work all day long. I think the idea of reducing learning load is well accepted by everyone.
Best wishes.
Smoking and Health
Today cigarette smoking is a widespread habit all over the world. It was reported recently that smokers make up one quarter of the world population, while in China, 33.9 precent above the age of 15 are smokers. It’s a very serious problem because not only the old, the youth, but also middle school students and girls have been engaged in smoking.
Many heavy smokers say they cannot leave off, although they know smoking is harmful to their health and they have tried again and again to stop.
Scientific research shows that smoking is not only harmful to smokers themselves, but also a threat to public health, especially to women and children. The poisonous gas from smoking is one of the major
causes of many kinds of diseases. Therefore, many countries have worked out laws forbidding smokers to smoke in public places such as cinemas, hospitals and stations.

As a lucky student, I attended the 1998 NESCMSS held in the beautiful seaside city of Yantai from July 25 to 30, which was sponsored by the English Coaching Paper Office. Over 100 students all over the country and 30 English teaching experts from home and abroad took part in the activity. All the campers were required to speak English. During the four days, a series of English activities were held including the Second National English Debate for Middle School Students and the Third National English Speech Competition for Middle School Students. We also visited some places of interest. A colourful English evening was held on July 29. The camp provided us with a valuable opportunity to speak English, make friends and exchange learning experience. I found my English much improved at the end of the camp. Never in my life shall I forget the impressive days in Yanta
