Monday 12th March, 2007
Dear Mr. Heppell,
I am Sabrina Akhtar studying in a high school and I’ve noticed that forests are disappearing.
You know, forests are disappearing around the world each year because of many different reasons including farming, tourism, pollution, etc. If we stop doing these things, there will be a good future for people of tomorrow.
Now I’m writing to ask you to help stop forests from disappearing. You can help by getting shops to stop selling paper made from trees and by persuading people not to use tree-free paper (paper not made from trees). This will help forests so much. There are many, many things we can do to help forests. If you would like to know more, please visit http://www. Rainforestweb. Org/.
By changing the little things, we can make a big difference.
If you would like to contact（联系）me, please see the above address or e-mail me at shazadinol @ hotmail.co.uk. Thank you for taking your time in reading this letter.
Yours sincerely,
Sabrina Akhtar

Many earthquakes happen every year．Some of these earthquakes are very strong．When they happen in cities，they can be very serious．Many people will be hurt or die in the earthquakes．Knowing some ways to protect yourself will help to keep you safe in the earthquake．

If you are indoors when the earthquake happens，the safest place is under a strong table or desk．Sitting on the floor in a doorway or close to a wall is safer than standing in the middle of a room．Remember to protect your head and neck with your arms．Stay away from windows，tall furniture and pictures or anything that may fall on you．Do not try to run out of the building．

If you are out of doors，move to clear areas．Get away from buildings and trees．Be very careful of fallen power lines．

The danger is not over when the strong shaking stops．There will be some shocks after most earthquakes．We call them aftershocks and they sometimes can be more dangerous than the first earthquake．

When it is safe for you to move around，check the people near you．Some may need help．You may feel afraid，but you should try to stay calm．That is the most important thing to do in the earthquake．

You may not realize it，but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school．School is also the place where you learn to get on well with people．But this is not always easy．What can you do if you just don't like one of your classmates？

If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmates or friends，the most important thing to learn is tolerance．Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others．We can not change the way that other people do，so it is important to learn to live happily with them．

Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other．Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things differently．Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad．Tolerance teaches us to keep a temperate and open mind．

You need to remember an old saying，"Treat others how you want to be treated"．If you tolerate something，it does not mean that you have to like it．No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in．Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change．

It is important to practice tolerance，because it will make everyone's life easier．Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests．The world is very different，and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference．
