Dear Editor,
I'm writing to tell you about a food poisoning accident．Several days ago, my neighbor ate a bag of food buying from the market．After the meal, they had stomachaches and their faces turn pale．Fortunate, one of their friends found the accident and immediately called an ambulance, which carried them quickly to a hospital．After several hours' treatment they finally escaped with death．
As some illegal businessmen only interested in making profits to become rich quickly, we seldom care about the necessary safety measures．Nor do they care about which happens to consumers．They shall be charged by law．Meanwhile, I do hope whole society can realize the important of food safety and begin taking action together to make sure food is safe．

When a person is curious about something, it means he is interested in it and wishes to know something about it．There is wrong with curiosity in itself．Whether it is good or bad depends on what people are curious about．
Curiosity sometimes be foolish or wrong．Some people with nothing to do are full of curiosity about what their neighbors are doing．They have a strong wish to know what they are bringing home or taking outside, or they have come home so early or late． To be interested in these things is silly because it is none of their__ to know what their neigh-bours do or are doing． Such curiosity is not only foolish but also harmful． Most probably, it may lead to a small talk which often brings harm or disrespect to others, thus （hurt）others' feelings．
However, there is a clever curiosity-the curiosity of wise men, who wonder at all the great things and try to find out all they can learn about them．Columbus could never have found America if he （not be） curious． James Watt would not have made the steam engine his curiosity about the rising of the kettle lid． All the discoveries in human history have （make）as a result of curiosity, so the clever curiosity is never about （important） things which have little or nothing to do with the happiness of public．
When I was eight, I wrote my first poem．My mother read and cried, "Buddy, you didn't really write this beautiful poem!"
Shyly, but ,I said yes．She poured out her ．"It was nothing short of talent!"
”What time will Father be home?" I asked．I could hardly wait to my work to him．I spent quite some time for his arrival．I wrote the poem out in my finest flourish（花体字）’drew a fancy border around it and I placed it right on my father's plate on the dining table． My father had begun his motion-picture career as a writer．1 was sure he would be able to my poem．
At almost 7 o'clock my father burst in．He seemed ．He circled the dining-room table, complaining about his employees．
Suddenly he paused and glared at his plate．"What is this?" He was reaching for my poem．
¨Ben, Buddy has written his first poem!” my mother began． "And it's beautiful, absolutely amaz…”
“If you don't mind, I'd like to decide for myself．" Father said．
I my head as he read that poem． It was only ten lines．But it seemed to take hours．Then I heard him dropping the poem back on the table． Now came the moment of ．
“I think it's terrible," he said．
I couldn't look up． My eyes were getting ．
“Ben, these are the first lines of poetry he's ever written," my mother was saying． "He needs ，”
“I don't know why．" My father held his ground． "Isn't there enough poetry in the world already? "
I couldn't it another second． I ran from the dining room crying． Up in my room I myself on the bed and cried the worst of the out of me．
That may have been the end of the story, but not of its for me． I realized how fortunate I had been． I had a mother who said, "I think it's wonderful!" and a father who drove me to hear with "I think it's awful．"
Every one of us needs that mother force, from which all flows; and yet the mother force alone is incomplete． It needs the balance of the force that ,"Watch． Listen． Review． Improve．"
Those voices of my childhood ring in my ears through the years, like two opposing winds blowing me． Between the two poles of and doubt, both in the name of love, I try to follow my true course．
