Have you ever dreamed about sending a letter to yourself or your friends in the future? While express mail(快递) is a fast way to send your letters, there is another type of mail appearing in China as a new business—future mail.
"The letter should be sent next Mother's Day and not a day earlier!" Lin Xiaofan, a college student in Shanghai, tells one of the companies offering the service.
Lin Xiaofan wrote the letter to her mother nearly a year earlier to express her love to her mother for next Mother's Day.
"Offering this service makes people slow down and lets them understand the meaning of 'time' in another way," said Zheng Zhimin, manager at a "future mail" company. Zheng thinks "future mail" letters help remind us of care, friendship and love.
While "future mail" is becoming more and more popular, some people are wondering what will happen if the postal address changes or if the company goes broken before the letters arrive.
Zheng said customers are glad to sign a contract(签订合同) to make sure that they can be compensated if their letters are lost or damaged.
Most of the customers are college students and young white-collar(白领) workers. Psychologists (心理学家) said that young Chinese might have a new way to express their feelings through this service. Most people put their hopes and wishes in the letter so that they can experience the connection(联系) between the past and the present when they receive the letter.
23. The underlined word "compensate" means ______ in Chinese.
A.赔偿 B.完成 C.送达 D.抛弃
24. The "future mail" service is popular among ______.

Life is full of regrets. The most regrettable moment of my past years happened in my junior high school. At that time, I failed my English exam.
On a winter afternoon, I sat on my seat and waited for the English exam. It was the last exam of the semester. After the exam, we would enjoy our winter holidays. I didn't worry about the exam because I was good at English. And I was the so-called top student in my class. I thought it was not necessary to review English. In my opinion, it would be easy.
Soon the teacher entered the classroom several minutes in advance(提前). Then she gave out the test papers to us. At first, I thought it was easy. However, when I finished half the paper, I felt it was increasingly difficult. I had ever learned some words but I just could not remember them.
What's worse, I was influenced by these difficulties and my brain was in a mess. I knew that I would fail the exam. I regretted not preparing well for it. And I regretted being too proud of myself.
Two hours passed quickly, and we all had to hand in our test papers. After school, I walked on the way home with a heavy heart. The experience taught me a lesson, "Hard work is the only key to good results."

It's a good chance for us to have a rest and have a good attitude towards study.
