16、When I was young, I sometimes traveled the country roads with my dad. He was a mail carrier, and on Saturdays he would ask me to go with him. Driving through the countryside was always fun: There were animals to see, people to visit, and chocolate cookies if you knew where to stop, and Dad did.On Dad's final day of work, it took him well into the evening to complete his rounds because at least one member from each family was waiting at their mailboxes to thank him for his friendship and his years of service. Mailboxes were sometimes used for things other than mail. One note left in a mailbox read, “Nat, take these eggs to Marian; she's baking a cake and doesn't have any eggs.” A young girl wrote letters but had no stamps, so she left a few buttons on the envelope in the mailbox; Dad paid for the stamps. One businessman used to leave large amounts of cash in his mailbox for Dad to take to the bank. Once, the amount came to $32,000.

A dozen years ago, when I traveled back to my hometown on the sad occasion of Dad's death, the mailboxes along the way reminded me of some of his stories. I thought I knew them all, but that wasn't the case.As I drove home, I noticed two lamp poles, which supported wooden boxes about four feet off the ground. For years children had dropped letters to Santa through those boxes. I made a turn at the corner and drove past the post office and across the railroad tracks to our house.
Frank Townsend, Dad's postmaster and great friend for many years. So we all sat down at the table and began to tell stories.
At one point Frank looked at me with tears in his eyes. “What are we going to do about the letters this Christmas？”he asked.“The letters？”
“I guess you never knew.”
“Knew what？”
“Remember, when you were a kid and you used to put your letters to Santa boxes on Main Street? It was your dad who answered all those letters every year.”
I just sat there with tears in my eyes. It wasn't hard for me to imagine Dad sitting at the old oak table in our basement reading those letters and answering each one. I have since spoken with several of the people who received Christmas letters during their childhood, and they told me how amazed they were that Santa had known so much about their homes and families.
For me, just knowing that story about my father was the gift of a lifetime.

17、According to a recent survey, about 52% of WeChat（微信）users aged 18 to 29 block their parents on WeChat Moments, also known as “Friends' Circle”.
My parents don't know Moments very well, and I have told them I don't use it any more. I just need some private space.
— Lu Zhiping, 21 years old
I don't block my parents completely. They are in a certain group in which I only share positive (正面的) posts. I just don't want my parents to worry about me. Last year my parents saw a Moments picture of my hand getting burned while cooking. It was nothing serious but they traveled all the way to my city to make sure I was all right.
— Xie Yun, 26 years old
The survey also found that more than 49% of Chinese parents use WeChat as a main way to communicate with their children.
When asked what they would do about being blocked, some parents said they would have a conversation with their children to find out the reason, while others said they wouldn't care.
And some parents are smarter than their kids . “I didn't realize I was blocked until I compared what I could see on my phone with what my son's aunt could see,” said Chen, a mother of a 27-year-old son.“ Now I'm following my son's posts through his aunt.” 1．What is another name of Wechat Moments?
