Dear Kimiko,

I can’t wait until you get here! I am meeting you at the airport at 1:00 on Friday. From there we are going right home, so you can meet my family. After you rest for a few minutes, we are all going to dinner at a Japanese restaurant. We want you to feel comfortable on your first day in New York. After dinner, we’ll probably go to a movie.

Saturday we can sleep late if you want to. In the afternoon, we can take a boat ride around New York, so you can see what it looks like. Later we are visiting a couple of museums, Jerry and Tania want to have dinner with us Saturday night. We’ll probably meet them at an Italian restaurant on 56th Street.

I’m sorry you have to go to Washington so soon, I am going to the airport with you on Monday morning to say good-bye.

Have a safe trip,

Maria

Johnny Smith was a good math student at a high school. He showed great interest in his computer. He came home early every day. Then he worked with it till midnight. But Johnny was not a good English student, not good a bit. He got an F in his English class. One day after school, Johnny joined his computer to the computer in his high school office. The school office computer had the grades of all the students. He found his English grade. Ah F! Johnny changed his English grade from F to A. Johnny’s parents looked at his report card. They were very pleased with the result.

“An A in English!” said Johnny’s Dad. “ My son is really a smart boy!”

Johnny is a hacker. Hackers know how to take information from other computers and put new information in them. Using a modem, they join their computers to other computers secretly. School headmasters and teachers are worried about hackers. So are the police, for some people even take money from bank computer accounts and put it into their own ones. And they never have to leave home to do it! They are called hackers.

The day was like any other day in his life. After school Bill walked past the shop on the street corner. He stopped to look at the front row of shoes, and he felt sorry for himself. He really wanted to have a new pair for his birthday.

He sadly walked away and thought of what to tell his mother. He knew she would give him anything if she could. But he also knew very well she had little money. He decided not to go home at once, because he looked worried and he didn’t want to make his mother worry about it. So he went to the park and there he sat on the grass. Then he saw a girl in a wheel chair. He found that the girl moved the wheels with her hands. Bill looked at her carefully and was surprised to see that the girl had no feet. He looked down at his won feet. “It is much better to be without shoes than without feet.” He thought. It was not right for him to feel so sorry and sad. He went away and smiled, thinking he was more lucky in life.
