As a famous American writer, Mark Twain, once said, “Everybody talks about weather, but nobody anything about it.” It is true that everybody talks about the weather. Many people
their talks by saying, “Isn’t it a nice ?” “Do you think it will rain?” “I think it’s going to snow.”
A large number of people think they can tell the weather is going to be like. However, they ever agree with each other. One man may say, “Do you see how cloudy it is in the east? It’s going to rain tomorrow.” Another man say, “Yes, it’s cloudy in the east. We are going to have fine weather tomorrow.”
People often look for the weather they want. When a farmer needs water, he looks for something to tell him it’s going to rain and he won’t believe else. When friends have a picnic, they are so the weather is going to be fine that they sit their lunch while it is raining.
Almost everyone listens to what the weatherman says. But he doesn’t always tell us what we want and sometimes he makes a mistake. Still, he is most of the time.

To my family and friends,
As some of you know, I have just started my tour in the remote mountain area. Everything is going really well, so no .The land is beautiful but unfortunately it has a lot of too. I have received several emails asking what I need while I'm here .so I decided to write you all and let you know that I don’t need anything. At least not for me. I’m asking all of you to send me a few to help the local children. Let me explain.
On 12 May 2009, in a small village here, 120 school age girls were by a gas leak（煤气泄漏）. Most have but 6 are still in hospital. Even though the local government speaks about the of education for both boys and girls but most of these kids only attend school for four hours a day if they are even allowed to go. They are so excited and to learn, but then have to things like being sprayed（喷射） with acid or poisoned. Most of these kids are poor and can’t a pencil, pen or even paper to write on. So my co-workers and I are planning a trip to several schools to promote and to give these kids some of the they need. That is where all of you come in. If you can, please whatever school supplies you currently have .
That would be a huge help.
I know how busy you are so thank you for taking the to do this and I will post pictures of this after we go.
Thank you again.
