I'm no literary luddite （反對新技術(shù)的人）.I bought an iPad with my first paycheck from my first full time job after I graduated college.But after two years of reading occasionally on the device，I gave it away to my brother.It just wasn't the right reading experience for me.
Technology lovers choose e-readers over books because e-readers are more convenient.They're right.It is objectively easier to carry an 7 oz.jye.ai with thousands and thousands of books at your finger tips than it is to carry five books in your bag （which is exactly what I did on vacation）.
But I don't read for convenience.I read to learn more about the world and myself.I have made friends by seeing a book cover in a cafe and noticing that it was the same title that I was reading.I can trace my life by the books that have been my companions.When I open an old book and come across my previously scribbled notes - shaky ones when I've been reading on the subway，covered in sand if I read it at the beach，next to a train ticket if I was traveling - I am able to add an extra level of personal depth and experience to the story I am about to re-read.It's just not enough to simply consuming the story，which is what e-readers are great for.
When I read paper books，I hold onto them for long periods of time.I just purchased a new bookshelf specially for my "to be read" pile.Once in a while，I go through the process of deciding which books to donate，but usually the idea of parting with a book feels like giving away a part of my soul.
Physical books may not be the most efficient medium，but they are the most meaningful.So keep your Kindle，by all means.But I'll be happy hoarding with my library.

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，
