(A)Dear editors。

I am a middle school studeat.I’ve justread an article in a newspaper about savingtigers.It says that the population of tigers isgetting smaller and smaller.I think thereare about only four hundred tigers now，and here may have two main reasons for that.For example，last Tuesday I saw a few peo-ple selling skins of tigers by the roadside.It’s terrible.The other reason is that too many trees have been cut down，which hasdestroyed the places where tigers used to live.Tigers are dying out.I hope that the govern ment takes steps to pass laws to protect tigers and punish the tiger hunters.We should work together to make a pleasant home for both human beings and animals.

Yours sincerelv，

The poor are very wonderful people.one evening my sisterls and I went out andpicked up four people from the street.Oneof(116) was in a most terrible condition.Itold mv sistern， “You (117) the otherthree.I take care of this one who looks(118).”So I did for her all that my lovecan do.I(119) her in bed，and there wassuch a beautiful smile on her face.She tookhold of mv hand as she(120)“Thankyou”，and then she died.I could not helpbut examined my heart before her.I askedmyself(121)I would say if I was in herplace.My answer was very simple.I Wouldsay I was hungry。cold，homeless，and I wasdying，or something else，but she gave meher thankful love. Then she died(122) asmile on her face.

I am going to try to make a home formany people who have no home.Because I believe that love begias at home。and if wecan create a home for the poor，l think that

(C)Dear Sir or Madam，

Last Thursday，I traveled on the 8：40am train from Glasgow to London King’s Cross.and I was very unhappy with theservice provided by your company.The trainwas forty minutes late leaving Glasgow.andalthough the guard apologized，we were notgen any reasons for the delay(誤點).Wethan had furthat delays whan the train crew(乘務人員)changed at Preston and had towait another thirty minutes.As a result，Imissed my flight from London Healthrow toFrankfurt and had to wait for several hours.

What’s more，the servica on the trainwas also very poor.The trip takes over fivehours.Unluckily，there was no restaurantcar on the train but only a bar with softdrinks.Worst of all， the air conditioningbroke down half-way through the trip and itgot hotter and hotter in the train.However，there was no apology for this.and before wereached King’s Cross，the temperature wasover 40℃.

In view of the poor service，I feel I amentitled to compensation(有權索賠).

I look forward to hearing from you.

Your faithfully，

David Robertson
