Dragon Boat Festival is a funny Chinese holiday. Usually, it's in May or June. Both children and adults like this holiday.

    First, there are dragon boat races. Dragon boats are very long. They are painted in bright colours. In each boat, there are many people rowing. There's also somebody beating a drum.The winner of the races can get a lot of money.

    During Dragon Boat Festival, people also eat a special kind of rice dumplings. To make rice dumplings, people always put some meat, vegetables and other things in it. Then they can make different flavors of dumplings. Some are sweet, and some are salty.They all taste good. People give them to friends.

    On the evening of holiday, families have a big meal together. Dragon Boat Festival is a great time for everybody.

Dear Cindy，

    Thanks for your letter. I miss you very much. It's always nice to hear from you.

    Today is the last day of my exams(考试). The math exam is very difficult, but the other exams are easy. I'm waiting for the summer holiday now. I'm  very excited，because I am going to see you and to be with you again.

    I'm  going to spend my summer holiday in New York with my sister. So we can play together again. I will enjoy our time together. I'm  going to watch football games with you. I think we will have a good time.

    I'm  going to the supermarket later on(过一会儿). I'm  going to buy some presents for you. I  hope you will like them.

Yours，

Jim
