hopeless at the time. He ended his letter with this question: “We can’t really change this crazy world we live in, can we?” I replied to him and started my own letter with these words: “Yes, we most certainly can!”

③One day, she let me try playing her guitar. I did my best, but could only stumble along. When I was done, I put my head down. “I guess I am not very good,” I told her. She looked at me with her kind eyes, smiled at me and said, “We are all good at something. You just need to find out what you are good at. Then, you can share it with the world.”
④Those simple words changed me. They planted a seed(种子) in my soul that continues to grow to this day. They made me realize that I had something good inside of me. I just had to find it and share it.
⑤Can you change the world? Yes, you can!You can change it through one choice, one person, and one kind act at a time. All you have to do is to share your goodness. Mother Teresa once said, “God doesn’t ask us to do great things, only small things with great love.” So make your love great!

五、One possible version:
Dear Mr. Wu,
I am David from Class Two, Grade Nine. I’d like to choose Basketball. First, I take a great interest in sports, especially basketball. I think it’s really a good sport for me to build up my body and make some new friends for another thing. Taking Basketball gives us a chance to rest from hard work and then improve our health. Also while playing basketball, players learn to work hard together and play as a team. That’s the teamwork which is very important but badly needed to us.
I hope the teacher for this course can be friendly and creative. Besides, we can share something about our favorite NBA stars and teams in class.
Yours,
David
