Dear Laura,
I just heard you tell an old story of gift giving and unselfish love in your program. You doubted that such unselfish love would happen in today’s world. Well, I’m here to give you 1 .
I wanted to do something very 2 for my fifteen – year – old son, who has always been the perfect child. He 3 all summer to earn enough money to buy a used motorcycle. Then, he spent hours and hours on it until it looked almost new. I was so 4 of him that I bought him the shiniest helmet and a riding outfit.
I could 5 wait for him to open up his gift. In fact, I barely slept the night before. Upon awakening，I went to the kitchen to start the coffee, tea, and morning goodies. In the living room was a beautiful keyboard with a 6 : “To my wonderful mother, all my love, your son.”
I was so surprised. It had been a long – standing joke in our family that I wanted a piano so that I could take lessons. “Learn to play the piano, and I’ll get you one” was my husband’s response.
I stood there shocked, crying a river, asking myself how my son could 7 this expensive gift.
Of course, the house awoke, and my son was excited with my reaction. Many kisses were 8 , and I immediately wanted him to open my gift.
As he saw the helmet and outfit, the look on his face was not exactly what I was expecting. Then I 9 that he had sold the motorcycle to get me the keyboard.
Of course I was the proudest mother 10 on that day, and my feet never hit the ground for a month.
So I wanted you to know, that kind of love still 11 and lives even in the ever – changing world of me, me, me!
I thought you’d love to 12 this story.
Yours,
Hilary
P.S. The next day, my husband and I bought him a new “used” already shiny motorcycle.

Dear Laura,
Thanks for your message. Yes, I’m having a great time on my exchange program in France. It’s even better than I thought it would be. I was a bit nervous before I arrived here, but there was no reason to be. My host family is really nice. They go out of their way to make me feel at home. And you wouldn’t believe how quickly my French has improved! I’m very comfortable speaking French now. Although I still make lots of mistakes, it doesn’t bother me like it used to. My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table. As you can imagine, things are really different from the way they are at home. For example, you’re not supposed to put your bread on your plate. You’re supposed to put it on the table! I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now I’m used to it. You’re not supposed to eat anything with your hands except bread, not even fruit! (You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork). Another thing is that it is very rude to say you’re full. If you don’t want any more food, you should just say, “It was delicious.” Also, it’s rude to put your hands in your lap. You should always keep your hands ,but not your elbows, on the table. I have to say, I find it difficult to remember everything, but I’m gradually getting used to things and don’t find them so strange any more. I’ll write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope you’re having a good school year.
Wang Kun
