Dear Ted,
Thank you for agree to look after the house while we’re on the holiday. I hope you will enjoy staying here, but there are a little things that I must tell you about. Firstly, please don’t forget feed the cat---I’m sure she will tell you when she is hungrily! You don’t have to feed the birds so I put enough food in their cage. Oh, and don’t let the dog sleeping on the sofa ----he isn’t allowing to. By the way, I bought a beautiful gift to you and I can’t wait to send them to you!
See you soon!

It’s true to say that technology makes our lives easier. However, increasingly scientists are saying that we need to give ourselves a break-----otherwise we put ourselves at risk(风险) of developing hundreds of health problems. Over the summer the days are longer and sunnier. Why not put this free time to good use and do something away from technology?
You could learn a new skill. There are hundreds of possibilities: cooking, a musical instrument or a new sport. Haven’t you always wanted to learn how to knit(编织)? You could use your free time to practice these new things, which might lead to an exciting opportunity in the future.
If you just want to relax, why not head to a beach? Take along your favorite book and relax on the sand, or go for a walk along the coastline. If you don’t live near a beach, you could go to your local park. Why not have a picnic, or try to explore some of the local wildlife? You could even get involved in the latest craze(狂热): adult coloring books! Coloring is a surprising thing to help you relax, and it can be a nice way to escape from the stress of modern life!
Whatever you choose to do, try something new! You might surprise yourself and find a hidden gift within you; you might make new friends along the way. Next time you find yourself changing TV channels(频道) from one to another without a clear purpose, think about what else you could spend your time doing.
