Dear Xiaohong,

We will dance there. We will play hide and seek. We will eat a birthday cake. I hope you will enjoy this special day.

    See you at the party.

Yours,

    There are many rules in my family. I am not happy because they are boring. First, I should get up early because I have to go to school. Next, I shouldn't watch TV on school nights. On the weekend, I should do my homework, and then help my mum to do housework. In the evening, I can't go out to play with my friends. I should go to bed early. My parents think that the rules are good for my study. They don't know I'm interested in running, playing basketball and writing. I don't want to follow(遵守) the rules.

    Sally is twelve years old. She comes from the US. Now she studies in a primary school in Chengdu. She can speak English and a little Chinese. She has a good friend named Judy. Judy is one year younger than Sally. Judy is from Australia. She can speak Chinese well. So she often helps Sally with Chinese.

    They have different hobbies. Judy likes playing the violin, but Sally doesn't like playing any instruments. She doesn't like music at all. She likes reading novels. Harry Potter is her favourite novel. She would like to read it again.

    My name is Lily. This is my house. There are five rooms in my house. This is my father and mother's room. There are three pictures on the wall. There is a desk near the window. There are two chairs behind the desk. On the left of the room, there is a toilet. On the right, it's my room. There are four pictures and a poster on the wall.
