1. 参考范文:
Dear Chris,
I’m writing to recommend a meaningful activity called “Social Media Detox” to you.
Last week, our school held a seven-day campaign asking us to stop using social media. I managed to last four days. During the detox, I realised how much time I had wasted checking my phone. Instead of messaging friends online, I talked with them face to face and even picked up my old hobbies.
I strongly recommend this activity to you because it helps us realise the value of real communication and improves our self-management. I hope you can try it too!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

2. 参考范文:
Social Media and Me
As a high school student, I spend about two hours on social media every day, mainly using WeChat and Douyin to chat with friends and watch short videos.
Social media brings me convenience. I can keep in touch with friends easily and get the latest news quickly. However, it also has negative effects. I often find myself checking my phone before sleeping, which reduces my sleep time. Worse still, I sometimes feel anxious if I don’t reply to messages immediately.
To improve my situation, I plan to set a time limit of one hour per day for social media use. I will also turn off my phone when doing homework and spend more time reading or exercising. I believe these small changes will help me live a healthier and more balanced life.
