Sometimes，life gives you the gift of a moment that changes everything.For me，that came on a plane home in January，2009.As a lawyer，I specialized in corporate law in oil and gas projects.Actually，I'd grown to hate my job.It involved too much paperwork and a lot of traveling，which was really exhausting for me.
Becoming a lawyer was unintended.I loved my school but it was competitive and students were destined for a good university，and then a graduate plan.That was the track I W as on.After graduation，I became a lawyer，but that just made me trapped.I wanted to make a difference，but I had no idea what else I could do.
On that life-changing flight，I asked a stewardess to bring me a hot drink.When she returned，I couldn't help crying.Hugging me，she said， "I don't know what's wrong but if you're crying in business class，you need to change your life."
Those words had a great effect on me.I couldn't carry on in a job that made me so uncomfortable.
After much reflection，I resigned 18 months later，The last time I'd been happy was when I was volunteering at a school.Because of that，my friend Sophia kept telling me I'd love teaching.
Then I contacted four schools and became a teacher in the end.No amount of planning would have prepared me tor my first day as a teacher.It was stressful，but as I became familiar with the curriculum，I relaxed.
Five years on，I'm head of department.Watching my students develop is so rewarding and results day makes me burst with pride.I used to feel scared about the thought of becoming a more senior lawyer，but I'm so positive about the opportunities teaching can offer.I earn less now but I become richer in many ways.
Every single day，I feel excited to go to work.

3．Dear Laura，
Thanks for letting us to stay at your seaside house． Now， you might have heard from your neighbors about which happened on Saturday evening． When I was out a walk， my younger son， Tom， played football before your house． He made so many noise that the neighbors got quite angrily． Even worse， Tom broke one of the window of Mr． Wilson's house． Tom and I apologized to all the neighbors for the unhappy happenings， but promised to have the broken window repair soon． Tom said that we would not do such silly things any more． I am glad that your neighbors had forgiven us． They are really nice people．
Yours，
