Dear Leis, 

     I read in my magazine that you are looking for a pen pal, so I'm writing to say hello.

My name's Alice Nichols and I'm 16. I live in Hania in Greece, but my family comes from England.

Hania is a beautiful old town near the island of Crete. In summer the town is full of tourists.

     I'm a student at a private school. I've been at the same school for five years now, so I know it very

well. Most of the time I like going to school, but there are some things I can't stand doing-like PE. I

enjoy playing sports, but I don't like doing exercises! My favorite subjects are geography and English.

     I often go to the beach in my free time. I love just sitting around and talking to friends. I'm getting

better at understanding boys, but I hate listening to hours of talk about football. It's just so boring!  

    What's life like in your town? I'd love to hear all about your family and friends. Have you got an

e-mail address? It's easier to keep in touch that way.

     I am looking forward to hearing from you!

     Best wishes!

                                                                                                                                       Alice

     Valentine's Day is a holiday honouring lovers. It is named

after Saint Valentine, an early Christian (基督教的)  churchman

who helped young lovers. Valentine was killed for his Christian

beliefs on February 14 more than 1 700 years ago, but the day that

has his name is even earlier than that.

      More than 2 000 years ago, the ancient Romans celebrated a

holiday for lovers. As part of the celebration, girls wrote their

names on pieces of paper and put them in a large container(容

器) .  Boys reached into the container and pulled one out.  The girl

whose name was written on the paper became his lover or sweet

heart for a year.

      Lovers still put their names on pieces of paper and they send

each other Valentine's Day cards that tell of their.love.  Sometimes

they also send gifts, like flowers or chocolate candy. Americans

usually send gifts and cards through the mail system. But some

use another way to send this message. They have it printed in a

newspaper. The cost is usually a few dollars. Some of the

messages are simple and short, "Jane, I love you very much. "

Others say more. This one, for example, "Dan, roses are red.

Violets are blue. I hope you love me as much as I love you.

Forever.  Mary. "

     Most of the newspapers that print such messages are local,

but USA Today is sold throughout the United States and 90 other

countries as well. This means someone can send a Valentine

message to a lover in a faraway city or town almost anywhere in the

world.  These messages cost 80 dollars or more.  An employee (雇

员) of USA Today says readers can have a small heart or rose

printed along with their messages this year. Will this kind of

Valentine's Day message reach the one you love? Well, just make

sure he or she reads the newspaper.
