In 1997 , 12 year old American girl Caitlin and 14 year old Zimbabwean(津巴布韦人) Martin became pen friends through their schools. They didn't know at that time how their handwritten letters would change their lives.
It all began as a school task. Everyone in Caitlin's class was asked to choose a pen friend from another country. All the other kids chose countries like France or Germany, but Caitlin chose Zimbabwe because the name sounded exotic(异国风情的) and cool.
Martin lived with his family in one of Zimbabwe's worst slums(贫民窟) where they shared one room with another family. And a bed was their only piece of furniture.
When Caitlin's first letters reached Martin, they were simple and general. The two kids wrote about their favourite music and what they liked to do. But as Martin slowly revealed more about his life and his letters started arriving written on pieces of trash(废纸), Caitlin realized what the living conditions were like for Martin. Without telling her parents, she began sending money with her letters—$20 at a time. While the money was not much to Caitlin, it meant more food for Martin's family and helped him go to school.
It lasted six years from their first exchange of letters to Martin's arrival in the United States. With the help of the money from Caitlin's parents later on, Martin finished his university and got his MBA from Duke University.
Today, Caitlin and Martin aren't only best friends, but they also share their story in a book called I Will Always Write Back. They want to encourage(鼓励)readers to look beyond their own lives and do something kind for others, which might greatly change their lives.

I had many good friends when I was a middle school girl. But there is only one of them that I can never forget. Her name is Susan and she lived next to me. Although she was 2 years older than I, we liked each other.
At school, Susan was a star. She did very well in all the subjects, but never seemed to be proud (骄傲的) of that. She was quiet, but she was like an elder sister to all the students in my grade. She was always willing to help us.
Susan was very kind. She was the only child of her family. She was always polite to the old and the poor, and kind to her friends. She often gave her pocket money away to the poor people in streets. She was quiet and it might make her look weak, but behind her smiling face was a strong will (意愿) of her own. So no one at school would think she was a weak person.
