Dear Addie,
Greetings from New Jersey,how is New Zealand? Tm very excited to have you as my pen pal. I guess it’s my turn to tell you about myself.
First off,I live with my parents,two sisters,and our pet dog Brighty. Our town is called Whippangong. It is only about half an hour away from New York City. My oldest sister,Ingrid,just turned 17,and that means she now has a drive’s license. She drives us to the mall. Is there a mall near your home in Te Awamutu? My other sister is 11 and her name is Lucy. I guess I would say that she is my best friend. We still fight,though. She rides horses and takes lessons every Saturday morning. I have to go with her sometimes,and that is truly the most boring thing in the world. Do you like horses?
I take tap dancing classes. I like to practice in the food store. The sound of my feet stepping on the hard Hoors echoes (發(fā)出回聲) . I play soccer in fall; I'm on the swim team during summer. I like swimming,but I am really looking forward to diving this year. Next year I will start music lessons in school. I think I am going to play the piano.
Our house has eight rooms and a small backyard where every year we try to grow vegetables. We mostly get zucchini because the rabbits eat anything else. I guess rabbits don't like zucchini. I have a bike and mum allows me to ride up and down our street,but nowhere else. I hope that I will get to ride it to school someday. Right now I ride the crowed and yucky bus.
Well,that is enough about me for now. I look forward to hearing from you again soon. I hope your surfing lessons went well. And I hope your mum does let you learn to play the drums.
Write soon.
Love,
Jessica

Many people say that they are working too many hours. They don^ have enough time to relax or stay with their family.
Work hours are different from one country to another. In France,people spend about 1 ,646 hours a year at work. In Japan,however,people work about 2 ,159 hours a year. That means a Japanese worker works 513 more hours a year than a French worker.
Why do people work so many hours? Some people work extra hours because they want to make more money. However,many companies don't pay overtime. Their workers don't get more pay for more work.
These people think it's their duty to work more hours. Some are afraid of losing their jobs if they don't work more hours.
Many people say that their vacations are too short. In France,people get five weeks of paid vacation a year. In Germany,they get from four to six weeks,and in the United States,two weeks. One study shows fewer than half of workers used all their vacation days. In Great Britain,there is a saying ,“All work and no play makes Jack a dull (遲鈍的) boy. ” If that is true,there must be a lot of dull people in the world.
