Victor’s hobby was collecting stamps. He had stamps from many countries, like England, Canada and China. On his birthday, can you guess what people gave him? That’s right--stamps.
Victor’s favourite stamps came from France. He had almost every stamp from 1954 to 2004. He only needed one. That was a 1974 special edition(版本). It was very hard to find.
He looked for it everywhere. He asked his friends and relatives to help him. But nobody could find the stamp. It made Victor very sad.
“Don’t worry. Never give up,” his father said to him. “If you have enough patience, you’ll find it one day.”
“I hope so,” Victor said.
Victor also liked writing. He had a penfriend in France. They wrote to each other every month. Victor’s penfriend, Phillip, usually used new stamps to send letters. Sometimes, his mother gave him stamps to use. Once Phillip’s mother gave him a big, green stamp. It looked old. When Victor received the letter, he was very surprised. On the envelope, he looked carefully at the stamp. It was the 1974 special edition stamp. Victor was so happy. He told his sister, his mother and his father.
“You see,” his father said. “ You did find your stamp. So, it’s good to have two things in life.”
“What are they?” Victor asked.
“ Friends and patience.” He answered.

   The Internet has become a way of life for many people around the world.So what would happen if one fine morning，you woke up to find the Internet has no existence? How would your life be changed? Well，your lifestyle might be impacted.If you were an Internet addict，you would find that your life has come to an end.With no online facilities，a considerable part of your time would be spent waiting in long lines at banks，post offices or government offices.You would be waiting for days or even weeks for your mail to arrive from another corner of the world.Suddenly，you would realize that your fast­paced life is running at a snail’s pace.

Without the Internet，your socializing would also be impacted.If you’d gotten very used to socializing online，you would now be clueless as to how you could share the pictures of your recent trip you went for with your friends across the globe.It would be difficult to interact with people living outside your locality.You might have to become a member of a club or a community in your neighborhood to make new friends.With no online social media，you would find yourself saying this very often: Let’s go and talk to them!

With no way to use emails，instant messaging，chat or social media，we would have to take advantage of the option of a telephone conversation，or sending a snail mail.Communication via the internet is free，whereas the options available otherwise would cost you extra money and time.Your would have to write letters and buy stamps，as we used to do before the Internet became popular.

The Internet has become a huge sea of information and resources.No Internet would mean no instant and easy access to information at the click of a button.You would have to walk down to your local library and actually search the whole place to get the information you’re looking for，with little chances that you’ll find what you seek instantly.The students who were accustomed to using the Internet for completing their assignments would have a tough time.There would be no way to get an education without actually going to a school or a college physically.

Without the Internet，things at your workplace would be turned upside down.If your work was largely Internet­based，your company might have to shut down.If your work involved only minor use of the Internet，for example，using online system to acquire statistics from the Internet，this simple task would now be a complicated and time­consuming process.Your desk would be full of documents and files，and you would have a nightmare searching or sorting them out by hand.In any case，life without the Internet would seem like a nightmare! So enjoy living in the paradise we call the Internet and make wise use of it！

   Walking is the best form of exercise. It is good for the upper respiratory（与呼吸有关的）system and the legs. It helps us control our weight and blood sugar. Walking is also a good way to help you make more friends，bringing chances to see new things and meet new people. Personally I try to walk at least 5 miles daily.

As well as walking，I also cycle around Xiamen. Cycling is great for weight loss and helps to build stamina（耐力）.However，cycling does not allow for the same level of social contact as a walk. It is for this reason that I would strongly suggest that you try long-distance walking if you want to be physically healthy. I originally（最初）started walking around Xiamen because I didn't have a car，but I soon started to enjoy the walking for its own sake.

I have also made many friends during my walks. It's not uncommon for my 5-mile walk to sometimes take as long as 2 or 3 hours，because I stop to chat with different shop owners along my route. These days，if I skip my walk for even one day，the people in the shops may want to know why I didn't come.

I' ll never forget the first time some people followed me when I was walking, and asked if it was okay for them to walk with me. I really didn't know what to say, so I just replied that I didn't mind. I have been invited for lunch, dinner and sometimes just to sit and drink tea with total strangers. There is nothing more pleasant than walking past a schoolyard and hearing all the kids say hello to me.

   Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.

If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.

Communication begins with the concerns of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and ignore everyone. Even if you just say “Hi” and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.

If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary. It would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance (表达)of information, means of communication such as a letter or a message”. To keep a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it's Just by writing a note.

When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, but ask them politely to listen to you. Yelling or walking away only makes the situation worse.

This is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, but when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let the incident go. Communication is the key factor here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.

Communication isn’t a one-way deal: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s, tell the other person how you feel-listening is the key factor to communication.
