I'm Dongdong. I have a pen pal. He's an English boy. His name is Jim. He's twelve. He likes Chinese and he has Chinese lessons every week. He likes flying kites, too. He also likes Chinese kung fu. I like it, too. I'll teach him Chinese kung fu next week. Then we're going to fly kites together. We'll have a good time.

    I'm Tony. I'm a boy. I live in a big house with my family. I have a sister and a brother. My sister likes to draw pictures and sing. My brother likes to play football. We all go to school by bus. My mother works in a hospital. She is a doctor. My father has a farm. The farm is very big. We like to go for a walk together. I love my family.

    My name is Ben. This is my family photo. This boy is me. My father is a doctor. He likes reading newspapers（报纸）very much. My mother is an engineer（工程师）. She likes reading books. This is my little sister. She is five years old. She likes collecting（收集）toys. She has two teddy bears and three toy cats. I like playing football. I often play it with my friends on Saturdays and Sundays.

    Mary is an American girl. She is now in Beijing with her parents. Mary doesn't know Chinese, but she is studying Chinese. She often speaks Chinese to her Chinese friends. Sometimes they don't understand(懂) her because(因为) she can't speak Chinese well. It's Sunday morning. She goes out. She is walking in the street. She is going to zoo to see elephants and monkeys, but she doesn't know how to get there. She asks a Chinese boy. The boy can't understand her. Then she takes out(拿出) a pen and a piece of paper(一张纸). She draws an elephant on it, and shows the picture to the boy. The boy understands now, and he shows Mary the way to the zoo.

Dear Sally,

    How are you?

    I'm in the UK now. It's hot today. I wear my yellow T-shirt and pretty white skirt. I go to the farm with my mother and sister. It's Uncle John's farm. It's big and nice. We can see many vegetables in the garden. We try some red tomatoes. They are so good. Uncle John has a lot of animals on his farm. My sister loves the horses very much. I love the cows because I love to drink milk.

Love

Jenny
