Dear Tom,
You asked me why I like living in New Mexico.  I like it 21 it is so beautiful.  We havemountains, mesas (平顶山 ), rivers, and forests. Mesa is the Spanish 22 for a broad, flat-toppedmountain. For 12 years, I have 23 across the state several times a month, and I still find newplaces that take my breath away.
24 else do I like about living in New Mexico? I like the sunshine. We have over 300 25 days a year, with deep blue skies. Because we are 7,000 feet above 26 level and the weather isvery dry, the air is very 27 and the nights here are much colder than the days.
The many days of sunshine are a very good thing for our state. Do you know that New Mexico 28 more than 3,200 hours of sunlight every year? With that much sunlight, we are one of thesunniest states in the United States. Some people 29 that if we could use the energy from all of thesunlight here, we could 30 more than enough power for the whole United States!
The weather in New Mexico is good for 31 energy out of sunlight, but sometimes the lack ofrain is a 32 for people living here. Most of the state is desert, and there isn' t enough water 33 drinking, growing food, and other uses. Farming is very difficult here because of the water shortage ( 短缺). There are many laws about water use in New Mexico so that everybody uses just enough. The 34 for water increases as more and more new homes are built.
So, as with all places, there are things that are wonderful and yet others that are35aboutliving in New Mexico. How about you? Do you like living where you are?
Yours,
Anna
