Subject: Complaints Date: May 30, 2007 From: David@ hotmail.com To: Glasgow@silverline.com Dear Sir or Madam,      Last Thursday, I traveled in the 8:40 am train from Glasgow to London King"s Cross and I was very unhappy with the service provided by your company.     The train was forty minutes later leaving Glasgow. Although the guard apologized, we were not given any reasons for the delay. We then had further delays when the train crew changed. We had to wait another thirty minutes. As a result, I missed my flight from London Heathrow to Frankfurt and had to wait for several hours.      What"s more, the service in the train was also very poor. The trip took over five hours. Unluckily, there was no dining car in the train and only a bar with soft drinks. The worst of all, the air conditioning broke down halfway through the trip and it got hotter and hotter in the train. However, there was no apology for this, and before we reached King"s Cross, the temperature was over 40℃. In view of the poor service, I feel I am entitled to compensation. I am looking forward to hearing from you.                                                                                                                                 Yours faithfully,                                                                                                                                 David Robertson @silverline.com>

What happened to David because of the delay of the train?     _______________________________________________________________ 3. Why did it get hotter and hotter in the train?     _______________________________________________________________

When I was young, I looked forward to my birthday all year. On that day, my friends and family made me feel like the most special person in the world. 　　     The night before my birthday each year, my parents crept into my bedroom while I was sleeping. They hung balloons on my walls with a big sign that said Happy Birthday! When I woke up, I was always surprised! 　　     If my birthday was on a school day, I brought in treats to share with my teachers and classmates.

What does it mean when parents fight? 　　     It"s hard for most people to hear their parents shouting at each other. You might worry more about one parent or the other during an argument. Or maybe you worry that one parent could become angry enough to lose control. It"s understandable to feel this way when there"s fighting around you. 　　     If your parents are arguing about you, you might mistakenly think the argument is your fault (错误). But your parents" arguments are never your fault. 　　     If your parents" fighting really troubles you, you might find it hard to sleep or go to school. If things are going like this, try talking to one or both of your parents about what they are doing. They may not even realize how bad you feel until you tell them how their arguments affect (影响) you. 　　     If the fighting goes too far, let someone else know what"s going on. Talking to other relatives or a teacher about the fighting can be helpful. Sometimes parents who fight can go so far that they hurt each other or other family members. If this happens, letting someone else know will allow the family to be helped and protected from such harmful fighting. 　　     Family members can learn to listen to each other and talk about feelings and differences without shouting at each other. They can get help from others with the problem of fighting. Though it may take some work, time, and practice, people in families can always learn to get along better. 　　     If your family argues from time to time, try not to worry too much: No family is perfect. Even in the happiest home, problems come up and people argue. Usually the family members get what"s troubling them out in the open and talk about it. Hopefully, they can reach some agreement. Everyone feels better and life is OK again. 　　     Being part of a family means everyone tries to make life better for each other. Arguments happen and that"s OK. But with love, understanding, and some work, families can solve almost any problem.
