Dear Mom,
    I'm sorry that I can't go back home for Mother's Day next week. On that day, I'll have to go to an important meeting for my boss, who helps me a lot with my work and life here. But I'll find time to see you at home soon.
    Mom, thank you for everything you've done for Tim and me. After Dad died ten years ago, you had to work in a supermarket in the daytime and in a restaurant at night. But you always gave us two your love and care. You don't have to work now, but I still remember your coming home and feeling tired many evenings.
    Tim is going to finish his studies next month. He said he would move back from school and look for a job near home. I'm glad you won't live by yourself any more. Let's plan to take a trip in the near future. It's been years since the three of us took a trip together.
    Happy Mother's Day. I love you!
Best wishes
John

举一反三

 It is believed in some ways that the daughter is father's lover. But my experience has taught me in a different way. For a long time, my father has been a very vague figure(模糊的形象)to me. He was a man of few words, tall but slim and nothing else.

 When I was in primary school, my father was never there to pick me up, and he never came to any of my parent-teacher meetings. He was always busy doing projects. I remember when I was in middle school and my head was badly hurt in a PE class. During my operation, my father was nowhere to be found. This hurt me most. At that moment, I considered my father as a cold-blooded man who did not care about me at all.

 But things seemed different at my high school graduation ceremony, where I was chosen to represent my class and give a speech. My father, once again, told me he had a business trip in a place outside the city and would be unable to show up(露面).“Don't come. I will be very nervous if I see you,”I told him.

 I remember my speech went smoothly. After the ceremony was over and I was about to leave. I suddenly noticed a familiar(熟悉的)looking man sitting in a corner of the hall. It was my father! I was so surprised that I rushed to him with tears(眼泪)running down my face. "Well done,"he said. His eyes were also filled with tears.

Later, I found out that my father had managed to finish his work by staying up late, and he drove for eight hours to get back. He had been sitting in the corner because he didn't want me to see him. My father remembered every word in my speech.

 For much of my life, I described my father was a cold-blooded man who only cared about his work. But when I thought deeply about this, it was obviously(明显地)not true. At my graduation ceremony. I could feel my father's deep love. The fact is that seeing is not believing, and seeing may not be the fact if we don't perceive(感知)the world with our hearts and minds. There's no doubt that life doesn't lack(缺少)love, but sometimes our eyes have trouble seeing it.

    Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, is an American computer programmer. His net worth (资产净值) is about $71 billion, ranking him the fifth richest person in the world. On 1 December, 2015, he and his wife announced that they would give 99 per cent of their Facebook shares to the Chan Zuckerberg Fund. Since 2010, Time magazine has named Zuckerberg among the 100 wealthiest and most influential people in the world.

    Born in 1984, he and his three sisters were brought up in a small village in New York. At high school, Zuckerberg was outstanding in class. He won prizes in science. He could also read and write French, Hebrew, Latin, and ancient Greek. Zuckerberg began using computers and writing software at middle school. His father taught him basic programming in 1990. He enjoyed developing computer programs, especially communication tools and games. During his high school years, he built a software program called ZuckNet that allowed all the computers between the house and his fathers dental office to communicate with each other. The following year, he built a music player called the Synapse Media Player. It used machine learning to learn the user's listening habit.

    In 2004, Zuckerberg launched Facebook from Harvard. He left Harvard in his second year to complete his project—Facebook. Helped by his college roommates and fellow Harvard students, Facebook expanded rapidly, reaching one billion users by 2012.

    In 2003, Zuckerberg met Priscilla Chan, at a party during his second year at Harvard. They have been dating since their Harvard days. In 2010, they got married and had their first baby, Maxima. The couple announced on their Chinese New Year video that their daughter's Chinese name is Chen Mingyu. On 18 March, 2016, while visiting Beijing, he posted on Facebook, "It's great to be back in Beijing! I kicked off (开始) my visit with a run through Tiananmen Square, past the Forbidden City and over to the Temple of Heaven." With a Chinese American wife and speech in Mandarin (普通话) in Tsinghua University, Zuckerberg is famous in China. He seems to be willing to take efforts to make Facebook available in the mainland to connect all people in the world.

There is an old tree on a dry land. The tree has so many branches(树枝)that it brings shadow(树荫)to hundreds of travelers. 

One day, two travelers got to the tree. They walked for a long time in the hot sun. They were too hot and tried to find a place to rest. Luckily, they found the big tree. 

They made a decision to take a rest under the tree. They slept there for a while. When they woke up, they felt hungry and one traveler climbed up the tree. But he was sad to see nothing. 

He started to say bad words to the tree. "Oh, this is just a useless tree without any fruit on it!" The other traveler said nothing about the tree but asked his friend to be quiet. However, the traveler in the tree still shouted at the tree. 

The tree couldn't stand the traveler at last. He said in a sad yet strong voice, "You can't be so ungrateful(忘恩负义的)to me, Just look back to the moment when you got here in the hot sun! I gave you a cool and comfortable place to rest. You would die now without me!"

Many people do much for us, but we sometimes forget to give thanks but only complain(抱怨)! Make sure not to say any bad words to the one who has helped you.
