I'm a girl from Guangzhou. I have a pen pal. His name is John. He's an Australian boy. He's twelve years old. He studies in Guangzhou now. John is a good student. He studies hard every day. John often cooks breakfast, lunch and dinner by himself. He likes Chinese food very much. He is interested in cooking. And he's good at cooking.

    Last summer holiday，I took a long trip with my aunt. We went to Australia by plane. It was winter in Australia. But in  Beijing，it was summer. I played with snow. I went skating there and I took many pictures. I bought many presents for my friends，too. I was excited，but I was tired，too.

    My name is Chen Jie. I'm from China. I'm a Chinese girl. I live in a big city. We have spring, summer, autumn and winter here. I like spring best. It's windy and warm. We can fly kites in spring. It's the best time to plant trees, too. I don't like summer. It's too hot. In winter it never snows in our city. So it's not very cold.

   I'm Mike. I like flowers. So I grow some flowers. They are red, yellow, pink and purple. They are beautiful. And they smell good. I water them once a day. I give them a little water. They grow and grow quickly. They are strong. I am very happy. I often listen to music in my garden. My sister and brother like tomatoes. So they grow some tomatoes. They don't give them water or light. They give the plants a little water once a week. They are lazy. So they grow slowly. They will die.
