Peter：Me，too. I like to go on trips.

    Susan liked watching TV. When she watched TV, she liked eating snacks (零食).“You're getting fatter and fatter，Susan. Your face is round and fat. You're only 110 centimetres tall but you weigh 30 kilograms. You're overweight,” said Susan's mother. “It doesn't matter，Mum. I like being fat,” said Susan.

    At school，some rude classmates called Susan “Fatty” when they saw her plump face and hands. Susan didn't like being called “Fatty”. She began doing exercise during the summer holidays. She skipped and lifted weights. She worked very hard. After the holidays，Susan weighed herself. “I'm 10 kilograms lighter. I'm thinner now. Nobody will call me “Fatty” again，” she thought happily.

    Billy is a student in Grade Two. He doesn't work hard at his lessons. He likes to play. But he thinks he is very clever.

    One afternoon Billy goes home after school. He is very hungry. So he says to his mother, “Mum, I'm hungry. Can I have something to eat?”

    “Supper is not ready. But here are two apples. You can eat them first.” Says his mother.

    Billy takes the two apples in his hands. He looks at the apples and says, “Mum, I have three apples now. Look, this is the first one. This is the second one. One and two is three. Right?”

    “Oh, yes, you are very clever, Billy.” Says his mother, “Now please give me the first one. Give your father the second one. And you eat the third one.”

Dear Mum,

    How are you? Every day I had fun with my cousins. On Monday we went to a restaurant. We ate good food. On Tuesday we went to a park. We sang and danced. On Wednesday we played ping-pong. On Thursday we climbed a mountain. We took many pictures. Tomorrow I'll be back home!

    Miss you and dad.

Love.

John
