The text tells us that eccentrics disregard social conventions. Is it good or bad? How should we look at social conventions?Generally speaking, we should follow social conventions, because we need social recognitions（社会的承认）. In English there is such a sentence “Human beings are social animals.” But the text tells us that Eccentrics are lovable, because they disregard social conventions, which is why people feel them lovableWhat is your opinion about this idea? We should not invariably follow the social conventions, because if a person is being too conventional, he or she might be too conservative and one may lose his individuality. And the text also tells us there are true eccentrics who never deliberately draw attention to themselves, then there must be false eccentrics who will try their best to draw attentions.(虚假怪人，也可能就是哗众取宠的人吧。)III.

Letter writingI was extremely sorry to hear that John had passed away. Unfortunately, I did not even know that he had been seriously ill. Otherwise I would have written to him. As you know, John and I were at university together and used to write to each other as often as we could. We also used to meet at least once a year with others for an anniversary dinner. We shall miss him. If there is any way I can help, please do not hesitate to ask me. You know that you can always phone me or write me a note. (100
