letter21: PHOTOGRAPH!

Hello,Tim
Here are the answers to the questions:
1. Why did many American women during this time use old flour sacks to make clothing for their families? 
Many American women would make clothing for the families from old flour sacks because their prized possessions was her sewing machine.
5. In what ways was the United States closely involved with life in Taiwan before 1972?
There were US Air Force and Naval Personnel stationed in Taiwan,and Taiwan benefited from various kind of aid programs from the US.
6. Why were the flour bags in Taiwan used to make clothing for boys, but not for girls?
The fabric was considered to be too coarse and rough to be suitable for girls.

We went to National Taipei University of Arts to take photos of our posters.Fortunately,the weather was pretty good yesterday.Although it was really tired,we still had much fun!

letter20: ABOUT TRIPS!

Dear Tim,

We are also going to take an annual trip(a trip that celebrates our graduation of high schoo) in the end of June.Our destination will be Kenting,which is the southest of Taiwan,and has great tropical sea landscape.I've been to Pingtung with my family several years ago.Its first impression for me is the high temprature and burning sun.Having tropical climate, Kenting’s summers are usually hot. In winter, the pleasant whether in Kenting keeps beaches here open all year round.And I want to introduce something about Kenting:

Kenting is a place for you to see the azure sky and the wide sea. You can play volleyball on the sand or swim in the blue ocean during daytime.(We may do this in our trip!) After that, you can go shopping in Kenting Street at night, the street grows even busier as the night goes on. Seafood is famous in Kenting, roast squid、roast fish and the huge ice cream are often chosen by Kenting travellers. 

After spend a day in Pingtung,heading to its neighbor,Kaohsiung,is the best choice!Kaoshung can be said to be the symbolization in southern Taiwan.My favorite place is the amusement park there.
The E-DA Theme Park is south Taiwan's largest theme park, and combines many exciting, enjoyable rides, restaurants, snack streets, famous department stores and two high-end restaurants, forming a hugely varied leisure resort. The E-DA Theme Park has recently begun holding New Year activities which draw visitors from all over Taiwan who fall over each other to attend them.

letter18: THE REUNION!

Dear Tim,
We have a five-day holiday on Children's Day and Tomb Sweeping Day.
By traditional,people should prepare some fruit and ghost money to worship their ancestor.In my family,only adults needs to go tomb sweeping,so I don't really understand this do much.

We  had a small reunion with my bosom friends on the Children's Day.Singing karaoke,shooting the breeze and having some snacks are always our favorite recreation.I spent amazing time being with them!

BTW,look my new glasses!!

Yours sincerely,
Amy

letter17: HOSPITAL TRIP!

Dear Tim,
I've been released from the hospital recently.Because of the immune system problem,it is a difficult mission for me to draw blood.I really hate to have blood test!When you have a drip infusion,it is not convenient to do anything,even just take a shower or eat snacks.

Yours sincerely,
Amy

letter16: TOILET PAPER!

Dear Tim,
I had to admit that I didn't pay much attention to the price of toilet paper.The press spread the exaggerate message and made the consumers have ''panic buying''. Actually,I think it's a marketing strategy that the businessmen used to earn profit.No matter how expensive the toilet paper is,we still need it when sneezing,wiping something dirty,and so forth.
BTW,my mom bought a carton of toilet paper for fear that the price getting higher.

sincerely,
Amy
