Dear sir,
I am writing to apply for (申请) the job of tour guide in London that was advertised (登广告) on your website.
I am 18 years old and I am now studying for my A levels at Grove High School. I am looking for a summer job before going to Manchester University to study languages and history.
I have lived and studied in London all my life and I know the city very well. History is one of my main interests and I have done many projects on famous London sights.
As for languages, as well as English, I can speak French, Spanish and a little German. I am a sociable person and I enjoy meeting new people. I am enthusiastic (热情的) about the sights of my city and I think this is important for a tour guide.
I shall be free from the middle of June until the end of September when my university classes begin.
If you would like me to attend an interview, you can call me at 79377211. I am free every Wednesday and Thursday afternoon.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Yours,
Richard Bracks
Mother's Day first began in America. A mother was very kind. After she died, her daughter wanted to remember her so she wanted to make a day for all the mothers. In 1913, America decided to make the second Sunday of May to be Mother's Day and every family had to put up a national flag to show their love to mothers. Later, it became an important festival to remember and praise(赞扬) all the mothers in the world.
In China, some people want to make our own Mother's Day. There is a famous story about Mother Meng. She loved her son very much and did a lot for her son. Chinese people think she was a great mother, so people want to make lunar(阴历的) April 2nd to be the day. Because Mother Meng's son——Mengzi was born on that day.
On Mother's Day, children often help their mothers do some cleaning and they also buy gifts for their mothers. Some mothers even go for a trip and have some other activities to celebrate this day.

"Robots, drones(无人机) and AI will do around 90% of the housework by 2040, " scientists from King's College said.
Mischa Dohler and Dr. Ian Pearson wrote a report to predict what homes will look like in 20 years. In it, they said that housework like washing the clothes and doing the dishes would be much easier because of technology progress(进步). If technology kept making progress, they expected that people would spend less than two hours a day in doing housework.
But most British people still don't believe their predictions. Just 2/5 of the people think that house robots will become a reality(现实) by 2040.
Predictions of Automation(自动化) by 2040 ▲ There will be house robots in people's homes. They will be able to do some of the housework all by themselves. Drones Small drones will be common. Some will keep the house clean, water plants and keep an eye on your house. Some will keep you warm with special light when you move around the house. AI Servants They will do almost everything for you. They will be able to pay the bills(账单), do some shopping and find ways to save your time and money. Super Smart Fridges They will learn what you eat. They can tell you how much food there is in the fridge, and even recommend(推荐) recipes. |
