Hello Sandy,

  We have just returned from our holiday.We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors.This is a beautiful place.It is a natural park.There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with no people, just sheep and birds.

  Edward, who had just come out of hospital, could not walk as far as be used to.However this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a cafe for lunch each day, before returning to the place we live.Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk.Very pleasant!

  I have taken lots of photos from the place we live, across the valley(峽谷)below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist in the valley.Also, in England, the old steam powered trains(蒸汽火車)are very popular.I have taken many photos of the train and from it.

  Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter.It is very early(we usually expect snow in January).It rained all day, then snowed in the evening.Today we have bright sunshine!

  Both Jenny and I are well I don’t know if I told you, in the last e-mail, that Jenny is now working in a hotel.Although she has to work hard, people there are nice and she is enjoying the work.

  Please write to us to tell us your news.

Yours,

Victor

  There are many online(網(wǎng)上)food shopping sites.This is very surprising.Things like CDs, books, and DVDs sell well online.But it is quite different to sell food online because people like to see food with their own eyes.It is very important for people to buy fresh fruit and vegetables.Customers like to choose their food by its color.They also want to touch and smell it.But some people like to go to the same shop to buy food, because they think the food there has a very good quality(質(zhì)量).So if the food is always good, they may also feel comfortable buying it online.

  Boxes of fruits and vegetables have been delivered to homes around Britain for a few years now.Dried or canned(罐裝的)foods are almost always the same, but things like apples are not.People may want to choose their own apples so they can take the ones that aren't bruised(碰傷)or the ones that look nice.Buying dried and canned food online is easier.A person can buy this kind of food on the Internet and then buy fruits and vegetables at a store or a market.

  Now people can also buy food through supermarket websites(網(wǎng)站).There people can find most of the things that supermarkets usually sell.Other food websites sell different types of food.Some sell food from one part of the world such as Asia.Others sell food that is hard to find in supermarkets.There are also websites that sell sweet foods such as cakes and candies.

  The food is usually delivered by the next day or even on the same day.People still need to be careful, though.They must check to see if the food is fresh when they get it.It is a good idea for people to find out how far away the food is being delivered from.It is also a problem if the company does not use refrigeration(冷藏)when they deliver food that should be kept cold.If traveling long distances in the summer to deliver the goods, this is important.

(1)
