Hello! My name is Peter. I am a student. I often have busy days. I get up at 6:30 in the morning. I eat breakfast at home. Then I go to school at 7:10. I read books at 7:30. I play sports at 11:45. In the afternoon, we have English class class. After school, I play football with my friends. In the evening, I do my homework or watch TV . I go to bed at 9:00. This is my day.

    Hello,I'm Lily.I come from the USA.I'm ten years old. I get up at 6:30 and I have breakfast at 7:00.I go to school at 7:20.I go home at 5:00 pm.I have dinner at 6:30.I go to bed at 8:40.This is my school. It's big and beautiful. The teachers'office is on the first floor. It's sunny outside.It's 27 degrees. I can swim well.

    Some students are talking about what they like to do after school.

Lucy: I think music is my favourite. I like listening to many beautiful English songs. I need to relax after a day's study, so I often listen to my favourite music after dinner.

Kate: I like music, too. But I only listen to Chinese songs. I like Jay Chou's songs. I also like playing the piano, but I can't play it very well. When I'm free, I also like reading. Reading makes me clever.

Peter: I don't like music or reading. They are a waste of time, I think. I am a good basketball player. I can help our school team win. Don't you think it's cool?

Jacky: I am not a good basketball player, but I play football well. Playing football makes me strong. I feel great when I am on the football field. I can enjoy the World Cup on TV after the exam.

Andy: I am not like most boys. I don't like sports very much. I just think reading is my favourite. I can learn a lot from books. I spend an hour reading books every day.

Amy: Today is Sunday. Let's go to the nature park.

Mike: Great! Is there a forest in the park?

Amy: Yes, there is. There is a lake, too. There are many boats on the lake.

Mike: Are there many birds in the forest?

Amy: Yes, there are. And there are many plants in the forest.

Mike: Yeah! Let's go.

Dear Peter,

Thank you for your letter and some wonderful stamps. I like them very much. I also collect stamps. I'm sending some Monkey King stamps to you think you'll like them.

Now I'm going to answer some of your questions. You ask me about the weather in Beijing in winter. It's quite cold and it often snows in winter. After snowing the ground is white. And I can skate on ice. It's very interesting to skate. I like winter best.

You ask me when the best time to come to China is. I think the best time to come to China is in spring or in fall. It's often too hot in summer and it's cold in winter. I have to finish this letter now. Ask your brother to come to China with you. Welcome to Beijing soon.

Yours,

Li Lei
