Newspapers are very important in our daily life. Many people begin their day by reading the paper. In this way they learn what is going on in the world.

At other times they may be in such a hurry that they have time only to have a quick look at the headlines.

七．Dear Yang Ling,
I like playing basketball very much in my spare time. I think we should play basketball in our spare time because if you play it, you will be healthy. If you play it every day, you’ll make many good friends. If you play it every day, you’ll be very happy. Playing basketball is good and interesting for people. If you play the piano, it’ll cost you much money, and it’s too difficult for me to learn, Do you like playing basketball or the piano? What do you like to do in your spare time? Please tell me.
Best wishes,
Wu Dong
