My name is Tom. I am ten years old. I want a new friend. I can swim. I can cook delicious food and play basketball. I often play basketball on the weekend. But I can't play the piano. I can't do any kung fu. Do you want to be my friend?

    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.

Dear Bill,

    I like my new school. We have five PE classes and three science classes a week. They are my favourite classes.

    Tuesday is my favourite day. We have maths, Chinese, PE and science on Tuesday.

    What are you favourite day? What classes do you have on that day?

Yours,

Mike

    Hello, I'm Amy. I have got a postcard. It's a picture of the Huangshan Mountain(黄山). It is very beautiful. And it's very famous in China. It is in the south of Anhui. It's more than 1,860 metres high. Every year thousands of Chinese and foreigners(外国人) visit it. It's really a nice place to visit. I will visit the Huangshan Mountain one day.

    Hello! My name is Lucy. I'm ten years old. I am in Class One, Grade Four now. Our classroom is nice. I like my classroom.

Dear Peter,

Thank you for your letter and some wonderful stamps. I like them very much. I also collect stamps. I'm sending some Monkey King stamps to you think you'll like them.

Now I'm going to answer some of your questions. You ask me about the weather in Beijing in winter. It's quite cold and it often snows in winter. After snowing the ground is white. And I can skate on ice. It's very interesting to skate. I like winter best.

You ask me when the best time to come to China is. I think the best time to come to China is in spring or in fall. It's often too hot in summer and it's cold in winter. I have to finish this letter now. Ask your brother to come to China with you. Welcome to Beijing soon.

Yours,

Li Lei
