（2025·上海浦东新·二模）Sweet aplgies
Last week, I fund myself in a difficult situatin with my new neighbur. He was a cllege student wh had just mved in acrss the street and brught a ping-png table with him. He put it in the grassland fr public use and it sn became a favrite place fr many in the cmmunity.
Hwever, in the fllwing days, the nise frm the games never stpped. Whenever there was a game, the crwd cheered ludly, and the nise nearly drve me mad. I went t the by’s huse and tld him that the table had t g, but he didn’t take it well. He asked wh I was and why I was telling him what t d.
“A neighbur wh is bthered by yur table!” I shuted at him.
My husband pulled me away. At hme, I sat n the sfa, still feeling angry. Suddenly, a picture n the wall came int view. It was taken at my cllege graduatin ceremny. Seeing it brught back a fld f memries. I remembered my wn cllege days, filled with cheers and adventures. Hw culd I be s “cruel” t the yung?
The next mrning, after waking up, I decided t make an aplgy first. As sme dugh n the kitchen table caught my attentin, an idea flashed int my mind: Why nt bake sme sugar ckies?
When I std in frnt f his dr, what I had said eched (回响) in my mind. I tk several deep breaths and kncked. The fllwing secnds seemed like years fr me. When the dr finally pened, there was a surprised lk n the by’s face.
“Hi... I think... I’ve dne smething really awful,” I aplgized, with my face turning red. “I hpe yu can accept these...”
I handed him the plate f ckies. He lked at the ckies and then at me.
“Hw d yu knw I’m hungry nw? This is the best snack!” he picked ne up and tk a bite. But the empty pizza bx n his table and sauce n his muth shwed he had already had enugh fr lunch. Finally, we agreed t start ver.
Tday, when I passed by the grassland, t my surprise, the ping-png table was gne. When I gt hme, I fund a bx f chclates in frnt f the dr, with a nte n it, which read “Enjy my hnest aplgy!”

Terrible! Frgt t check the weather because n phne. Gt wet thrugh in the rain after schl. Everyne laughed. I wanted t pst a cmplaint, but…n apps. Day 5:
Wke up early (n late-night scrlling). Actually finished hmewrk befre dinner. Mm said, “Yu’re less angry.” Hmm. After class, Jamie asked why I’m ffline. We talked in real life abut math hmewrk. Felt. . . nrmal?Day 10:
Okay, BIG surprise: I jined the after-schl basketball team. Never had time befre. My shts are terrible, but the team high-fived me anyway. Laughed s hard my stmach hurt. Als, read a whle bk chapter withut checking DDL Wh am I??Day 15:
Met Sarah at the park. She said, Yu’re always smiling nw. I didn’t even ntice. We fed ducks and talked abut dumb stuff (like her cat’s haircut). N filters, n likes—just fun. At hme, Mm hugged me and said, “Prud f yu.” Weird… but nice. Final Nte:
Still n phne, but…maybe I’m kay? Turns ut, real life is slw, and kind f awesme.
Hell, Larry,
S glad t hear frm yu this mrning and t hear abut the Chinese Lantern Festival. I nte that yu saw lts f firewrks IN yur flat. I am sure that yu meant yu saw them FROM yur flat. If they were IN yur flat, that wuld be rather dangerus! Yur visit t the Rman Cathlic cathedral was interesting, t.
I believe yu have received ur New Year greetings twice ver! After I wrte the card, I culd nt find it. It was gne. . . lst! I did nt knw where, s I wrte anther card. Later I received a nte telling me that yu had received bth cards. S yu were dubly greeted! And, I hpe, dubly blessed!
It was gd t knw yu have been t yur parents’ hme fr the New Year. I trust yu fund them well and enjyed visiting yur hmetwn. Yu must have been excited t meet yur ld friends and neighburs there again.
My brther Jhn has a Chinese friend wh he met in Lndn last summer. His name is Andrew. He wrks with students in Beijing, and als Chinese students returning t Beijing after having studied and wrked abrad—like yu did. He seems a very pleasant fellw wh, when I tld him I had a friend recently returning frm Sctland, said he wuld be happy t cntact yu if yu wuld like that. He is currently in Taiwan but will be back in Beijing arund 15th March after which, he says, he wuld be happy t meet up with yu. If yu wuld like t meet him, I will send yu his address and/r him yurs, but I will d nthing further till I hear frm yu.
Abut yur questin abut us, as Christians, eating prk…, yes, we d indeed try t fllw the teaching f the Bible (圣经) as it applies t ur daily living. Sme rules d nt apply t us in ur day thugh.
The sun is shining brightly tday but it is still very cld this mrning. There is heavy snw everywhere. In sme places, pwer cables g wrng, t. The winter cnditins are lasting lnger this year than befre.
Best wishes!
Sincerely,
Ken
