    When a consumer finds that something he or she bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to what the producer says for it, the first step is to present the warranty(保单),or any other records that might help, at the store of buying. In most cases, this action will produce results.

    However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction. A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the “higher up” the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer's favour, taking it as true that he or she has a just right.

    Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of buying, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.

    Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can show clearly what is wrong with what was bought in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, “The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear” is better than “This stereo(立体音响) does not work.”

    The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the producer, if so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint does not achieve the expected result, the consumer can go a step further. He or she can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a public organization responsible for protecting consumers' rights.

    Last Saturday, David was taking a walk in the park near his home when he noticed a woman with a boy of about eight years old. When David passed them, he heard the woman yell, “How stupid you are! You're good at nothing.” David stopped and looked at the little boy. The boy said nothing. He just stood there, looking upset.

David was reminded of his English teacher Mrs Brown in middle school. After he entered middle school, David lacked self-confidence because he was often made fun of by others. He was often told that he was good at nothing, which David believed. But one day it all changed.

    One day, in an English writing class, Mrs Brown asked them to read a novel. They were asked to write a new chapter of the novel after they finished reading the book. A few days later, David handed in his story. He didn't give it much thought. But the next day to his surprise, the comment “well done” from Mrs Brown came into view the moment he turned to the page where the story was written.

    When David read that, he almost burst into tears. He never expected to be praised one day. He suddenly gained some self-confidence.

    That day after he returned home, he wrote a short story and gave it to Mrs Brown the next morning. And again he was praised.

    David became very interested in writing. He often wrote short stories and asked Mrs Brown to read them and correct them for him. Mrs Brown always correct them for him. Mrs Brown always corrected the mistakes he had made and gave him good advice to improve them. One year later, David joined the school newspaper and became an editor of it. He was no longer that boy who lacked self-confidence. He gained his confidence and was hopeful about his future.

    He succeeded in entering college and kept writing. Several years after graduating from college, he had his first book published. With some more books coming out, he became famous as a writer in his country. And he owed his success to Mrs Brown's encouragement. Without her encouragement, his life might be very different now.

Paragraph 1:

    Inspired by his own life story, David decided to do something for that boy. …

Paragraph 2:

    The mother was ashamed when she heard that. …

    It was a beautiful morning. I was in the middle of a busy day, with my mind on what I had to do next. As I drove along a busy street. I noticed a young boy walking out from the entrance of an apartment complex(公寓群) on the other side of the street.

    I couldn't see beyond the entrance with trees and bushes shading it but I hoped that his family was there, about to appear behind him. The boy was young, maybe four years old, and it was a strange sight to see him alone near this busy street, even if just for a little while. I continued to look behind me but I didn't see anyone else coming out to join him as cars ran swiftly past him. Then, I saw him turning around and running back toward the entrance. I smiled in relief, as I hoped that he was heading back towards his family.

    Still, I felt I should check to be sure he was safe and did a U-turn as soon as I was able to. As I drove back to where I first saw him, I was expecting to see him safe, with his family around him. Instead, as I got closer, I saw that he had changed directions again, crossed the median(隔离带)and was quickly running in the opposite direction of the apartment buildings. I pulled my car over quickly and as I did so, all the cars on both sides of the street suddenly stopped as well, as if just realizing the potential danger of the situation.

    I crossed the street and went up to him. He stopped as I approached, looking at me cautiously and backed away slightly towards the road. I didn't want to scare him so I bent down a bit. Seeing a piece of paper in his hand, I asked him where his parents were and why he was there but he did not answer. Instead, he ran away from me along the median.

Paragraph 1:

    At this point, a man in another car asked if I needed help and I said yes.

Paragraph 2:

    I saw his dad racing towards us and heard him calling out the boy's name.

    My mom only had one eye. I hated her. She was such an embarrassment. She cooked for students and teachers to support the family.

    There was one day during elementary school when my mom came over to say hello to me. I was so embarrassed.

    How could she do this to me? I ignored her, threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day at school one of my classmates said, “Your mom only has one eye!”

I wanted to bury myself. I also wanted my mom to just disappear. I confronted (面对) her that day and said, “If you're only going to make me a laughing stock, why don't you just die?”

    My mom did not respond. I didn't even stop to think for a second about what I had said, because I was full of anger. I took no notice of her feelings at all.

    I wanted to be out of that house, and have nothing to do with her. So I studied really hard, and got a chance to go abroad for further education.

    Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own. I had kids of my own. I was happy with my life, my kids and the comforts. Then one day, my mother came to visit me. She hadn't seen me in years and she didn't even meet her grandchildren.

    When she stood by the door, my children laughed at her, and I shouted at her for coming over uninvited. I screamed at her, “How dare you come to my house and scare my children! GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!”

    And to this, my mother quietly answered, “Oh, I'm so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address.” and she was soon out of sight.

    One day, a letter regarding a school reunion (同学聚会) came to my house. So I lied to my wife that I was going on a business trip. After the reunion, I went to the old house just out of curiosity.

    My neighbors said that she died. I did not shed (流出 ) a single tear. They handed me a letter that she had wanted me to have.

Paragraph 1

My dearest son,

    I think of you all the time and I'm sorry that

Paragraph 2

    You see, when you were very little,

    With all my love to you.

Your mother

    Did you know that 60.2% of US families own dogs? That's over 75 million families. Besides getting a faithful companion, these friends also provide many health benefits that can be truly life changing for your fitness and wellness.

    Most dogs need to do their business outside many times per day, so you are up and moving more often than non-pet owners. The average dog owner spends 300 minutes per week walking, compared to a non-pet owner's 168 minutes. Frequent daily exercise lowers your blood pressure and reduces your chances of suffering from heart disease.

    Your physical health isn't the only thing that gets better with a companion dog. You can also improve your mental well-being. People suffering from anxiety find it helpful to have a dog on hand that's happy to provide assistance. You can find many dogs operating as emotional support animals, and help people in stressful situations feel better. If your dog is a more active type, you could find yourself taking your friend all over the place. If you take your dog to the forest, you actually lower your tendency to suffer negative(消极的) feelings. A research study discovered that the part of the brain that is most active when you deal with negative things calms down when you spend time among the trees.

    The dog ownership routine allows you to build healthy habits and it also gives you the opportunity to make social connections. Dog parks are filled with people you share a common interest with, and there are plenty of people who love to give dogs a friendly pat(轻拍)during walks. All of these are opportunities to have new great friendships and other emotional connections.

    Your doctor might not write down a dog prescription(处方),but when you become a dog owner; you get plenty of health benefits.
