make no doubt of it 毫不怀疑
make mince-meat of me 拿我当肉吃
jeer at 嘲笑
tortoise 乌龟
go off 离开
usual steady pace 平时的稳定的步伐
over-take 超过,赶上
plod on 沉重地向前
in his time 想当年
at length 后来,最后
worn out 累垮了
the weight of years and trouble 长年劳累
seized ... by the ear 咬住 ... 的耳朵
give way 让步
Dear friends,
I'm awfully sorry to hear that a horrible and severe earthquake unexpectedly hit your hometown. Faced with such a rarely-seen disaster, you remain so calm and strong-willed that we are all moved to tears. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Thinking about your present situation, we can not wait a minute to make every bit of our effort to help you. I, as the chairman of student union, on behalf of all my schoolmates, express our most sincere pity and care for you. Besides, we make a donation of 120 thousand yuan to you, expecting that it can help you go through the difficulty. A better hometown can be rebuilt. Therefore, never give up whatever happens. Remember we won’t be far away when you need any help!
Yours Sincerely,
Li Hua
