Before I was twelve years old, my family lived in the mountains. Our house was far from my school. It took me one hour to walk to school every morning. It was a happy time for me, because I could meet friends on the way, and we would go to school together. There were just six classes in my school, and only about twenty students in each class. We spent most of our time playing; the mountains were our playground. I still remember the different kinds of flowers, the songs of different birds, and the colors of trees in different seasons---everything was so interesting and beautiful. Even now I still miss my life in the mountains.

Dear Sir,
I think it wonderful to help others, so I would like to take part in the activity this weekend.
My neighbour Mr Li needs our help. He is 75 years old now and he is disabled. What's worse, he is blind Since he lives alone, it's really difficult for him to take a walk and do some reading. So I plan to take him for a walk. I will chat with him and read newspapers for him. I also plan to help clean his flat. It is necessary for us to do some thing for the elderly. And we can also learn more about their lives.
Yours Sincerely,
Simon
