Dear Amy,

    Thanks for your letter. It's always nice to hear from you.

    Today is the last day of my exams. The maths exam is very difficult, but other exams are easy. I'mwaiting for the holidays now, and I'm very anxious to see you and to be with you again. I'm going to spend my Christmas and New Year holidays in New York with my sister. I'm going down town. I'm going to go shopping for Christmas gifts. I'm excited about Christmas, and about seeing you again.

                                                                                                                                                                                                        Yours,

                                                                                                                                                                                                           Jack

    Winter is a beautiful season. My favourite season is winter. It's often snowy in many countries. And the outside is white. In winter, the days are shorter. And the nights are longer. It often gets dark very early. But I like snow, so I often go skiing(滑雪) on Sundays with my family. When it snows, everything turns white. There is thick snow on roads, streets, trees and houses. It's a beautiful world! My friends and I like making snowmen. Sometimes we play with snow. It's very interesting and exciting.

    Hello, I am Linda. I have a garden. There are many trees and flowers in it. I like smelling flowers. Look at the tree. It's a gift from my grandmother on Children's Day. At first(起初), it's small and short. It has two small leaves. I water it every day. The tree grows and grows. It has some big leaves. Now it has three pink flowers. They are beautiful. I like these beautiful flowers very much.
