Mark Twain was a great writer in America. He wrote many books. He liked telling jokes in his books. People liked reading them very much. And it was full of jokes in his life, too. Mark Twain liked reading. So he often borrowed books from other people. One day, he wanted to borrow a book from his neighbor. His neighbor was a mean man. He didn't want to lend it to Mark Twain. Then he had an idea. He said to Mark Twain, “I have a rule. You will have to read the book at my home. If you want to borrow it from me, you should never take it out." Mark Twain had to read that book at his neighbor's house.
A month later, his neighbor went to borrow a cropper (割草机) from Mark Twain. Mark Twain said to him with a smile, "I make a rule, too. That is, you must use my cropper in my garden. If you borrow it, you can never take it out either."

so tell need to one friend write |
How did you spend your summer vacation last month? I'd like you what happened to me during my vacation.
My parents planned a relaxing trip. We didn't worry about our work or studies. On the first day, before we started out for Shanghai, we saw on TV that the traffic was heavy. So we decided not to drive our car but to take the bullet train(高速火车) to Shanghai. It was the time that I had ridden on the bullet train.
On the way, an American girl sat next to me and I talked to her. She told me that she came here for a short stay-her father came to China on business. In one year he would go back to his company in the US. “How are you getting along here?" I asked. “Pretty well. I enjoy the life here and the people are ，” she said. With new friends around, she still missed her friends in the US very much. “It doesn't matter. I could always connect with them by letters, emails or making phone calls,” she said with a sweet smile.
I really envied(羡慕) her for her chance to go through life in different cultures.
