写作： Part one Dear David,
Knowing that you are planning an English debate competition and collecting debate topics, I'm writing to propose the topic “Is technology making us more connected or more isolated ’
In today's digital age, technology influences how we interact with others. This topic allows students to explore the positive and negative aspects of technology in terms of fostering relationships or creating barriers between individuals. By debating, students can gain a better understanding of the complex relationship between technology and human connections.
I believe this topic will engage the participants and the audience, sparking meaningful discussions
Yours， Li Hua

Trying to calm himself, Jeffery decided to talk to her gently. He inquired about her name and why she had left home. “I was going to Grandma’s house. My mom wouldn’t let me go.” Sarah replied, swinging one of her feet and looking at the concrete floor. “Your parents are searching for you, and they’ll be here soon,” he assured her, and the little girl gave him a small smile.
A few minutes later, the police and another car approached them. A woman got out of the vehicle and rushed toward Sarah. The little girl got up and ran to her, yelling, “Mommy!” The police officers approached Jeffrey and he told them the entire story and how he regretted not letting her on the bus, so he came to find her. Sarah’s parents thanked him for what he had done. From then on, Jeffrey helped anyone short on cash who got on his bus, and he always watched out for the kids that were alone because they needed someone like him to do the right job.
