Someone writes a letter, puts the letter into an envelope(信封) and posts it through a mailbox. Maybe we often see such a scene in movies. However, we seldom see it in our everyday life now.
Now we hardly use mailboxes to post letters. We usually write and send emails instead of letters. Sending emails is much faster than sending letters. Therefore, mailboxes are old and out-of-date.
Then some old mailboxes have a new use. In some cities in Argentina, people use old mailboxes as rubbish cans(垃圾箱) . They throw rubbish into the old mailboxes. Some people think it's a good idea, but some people have a different idea. They don't want to throw rubbish into the old mailboxes. They want more children to remember old mailboxes.They try to repair these old mailboxes. They think people should protect the old mailboxes.

A British boy has become one of the youngest people to sail alone across the Atlantic Ocean. Seb Clover has a fantastic and exciting hobby- sailing. He sailed his 9.8-metre-long boat 5,000 km from Tenerife to Antigua.
Fifteen-year-old Se b said,"Sometimes I was afraid. But I still enjoyed every moment.The best thing was seeing fish and other sea animals swimming close to the boat."He was also very happy to arrive in Antigua.
"You are busy all the time on a boat alone. It's difficult to cook something to eat on this kind of journey because you have to watch the sea all the time. Usually, you eat something small and often. That way, you don't have to stop working."The worst part of the journey?"That's easy to answer,"said Seb."I ran out of chocolate!"
Seb has sailed boats since he was very young and started to get ready for this journey when he was only twelve. Seb said,"I enjoyed sailing alone, but I'm looking forward to going back to school now. Next time, I'd like to go sailing with my friends."
