Dear Mom,
Time flies quickly. Two months has gone by since I joined this boarding school. Everything is going well. During my first month here, I was like a fish out of water. I came to realize how many things I should thank you for.
On the cold winter days, I have to get up early almost every morning to fetch hot water. I began to feel ashamed that I never said ‘thank you” every time you prepared (准备) hot water for me each morning on winter days before I got up.
I am no longer that girl who was often unable to find her books in her bedroom. It used to take me a lot of time to collect all the books for the day’s classes. But I have gotten over that bad habit now. And now I know how much time you used to take to collect my books every evening.
I have learned to do the laundry on my own now. I came to realize that washing clothes is a boring job, especially on winter days. Sometimes there is no hot water and I have to wash my clothes with cold water by hand.
I came to know how grateful (感激的) I should be to have you as my mom. Thank you, Mom.
Yours,
Silvia

任务型阅读
Saying no can be very difficult. People who are very shy often have little confidence. It is very hard for them to say no. They would feel shy when they say no, but doing things that they don’t want to do will make them unhappy.
A simple and direct “No” is the best way. If you want to explain, you can keep it simple. Just say, “No, I’ve already made plans for this time” or “No, I’m not free at that time.”
Other indirect but polite ways of saying no:
● Sorry, I can’t do this right now.
● I’m afraid I can’t, but thank you for asking.
● Please accept (接受) that I cannot come.
● I’d rather not.
To say no you should:
● Start the sentence with the word “No”.
● Shake (摇晃) your head when you say no to make sure others understand. Your voice should be clear and direct.
Sometimes it is difficult to say no. You can try to reply and explain in the following way:
“Sorry. I would have taken care of your cat next weekend, but I will be going out. I know it will be hard to find someone to take care of the cat. I will try to help you next time.” Remember that: you have the right (权利) to say no!
