—____________. Even Tom _____ to the top students failed in it.
A four-year-old boy has become pen pals with Britain's Queen Elizabeth. Tom Stancombe started exchanging letters with the queen after he set free a balloon, carrying his name and address, at a school party and it landed in the grounds of Windsor Castle.
The queen spotted the balloon and asked her personal assistant, Angela Kelly, to write a letter on her behalf.
She wrote,“The queen was delighted to find that your balloon had traveled all the way to the gardens at Windsor Castle.”
Tom, who proudly put the letter on his wall, wrote back to say that his great, great grandfather, the artist Petrus Johannes Arundzen, had been commissioned (正式委托) to copy Dutch masters' on display at Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace.
Angela at once replied that she would contact the Royal Collection to find out what had happened to the art works.She kept her word and two weeks later wrote to Tom to tell him what had happened to the etchings, explaining they now form part of the print collection in the Print Library.
Angela then asked a favor of Tom, writing, "Would you be able to ask your Mummy and Daddy for me if they know anything more about your great, great grandfather.Royal Collection would love to know more about him."
Along with his parents，Tom wrote back to fill in all the gaps about Petrus Johannes Arundzen.
Although Tom's parents don't think there will be any more letters exchanged between the pair, they were touched that she had taken time to contact them.
Tom's father said, "I don't expect we'll get another one, but I think it's incredible they bothered replying at all."

Surfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee, according to an Australian study.
The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive(具有创造性的) than those who do not. Study author Brent Coker said, “Surfing the Internet at times helps increase workers' attention.”
“People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention,” Coker said on the university's website. “Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day's work, and as a result, increases productivity (生产效率),” he said.
According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos. “Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their workers from watching videos, using social networking sites or shopping online,” said Coker. “That's not always a good idea.”
However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation(适度), or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office. “Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without.” he said.
