Life in the past and present
Your grandparents' teenage days
When my grandparents were young, they wrote letters to （写信去）keep in touch with others. They used pens and paper. Their letters were sent by post and it took several days to reach people. While they were waiting for the reply, they might feel worried.
Now
Today we write emails to keep in touch with our friends. Our emails can reach others in a second and we can get a reply (获得答复) in a short time. We do not use paper to write emails, so we can save many trees and help protect the environment.
Write an Internet post about the topic. Follow the example.

Exercises
When my grandparents were young, they went to school or work by bike. They also went out on foot. They went to school for more than one hour. And they got everywhere slowly.
Today we go to school by car with our parents. We also go out by bus with friends. We go to school for less than ten minutes. Our transport is much more faster and more convenient than before.
