Who should you write to? Think about a friend or relative that lives far away. A parent or best friend would also love to receive (you) letter.
How do you write a letter? (general) speaking, a letter includes these parts. The date and a greeting (问候语) such as "Dear…" should be at the top of the letter. A closing such as "Love" or "Yours truly" needs to follow the body. End it by (sign) it.
Why should you pick up a pen and write a letter? It is a surprise that may make someone's day. It's good way to show people that you have been thinking of them. Everyone loves a personal touch. It makes (enjoy) memories (回忆). Some people save (letter) and look at them over the years.
