Dear Alice,
I'm sorry to hear that you are not very well and feel unhappy. Here is my advice about how to keep healthy. A balanced diet can help you to keep in good health. You'd better eat more healthy food. It's good for you to eat a lot of vegetables, fruit(s) and drink milk every day. And you should do more exercise, such as playing ball games, running, swimming and so on. Good food and exercise will be helpful. You also need enough sleep. It's really important. What's more，keep yourself happy. Try to smile
every day. I hope you will be better and enjoy your life.
Yours，

Dear grandparents,
How's everything going? I have just received my report card. I always
feel nervous when I see the envelope from school, but luckily I did OK this time. My math teacher said I was hard-working. She was right. I have really been working hard at math. My English teacher said I was good at listening. My French teacher said I did better than before. My science teacher said I could do better. My geography teacher said I did best. The worst report was from my history teacher. He said that I was lazy, which isn't true, because I'm not interested in it. I only spent less time on it. Well, that's all the news I have now. Mom and Dad send their love.
Yours,

Dear Yang Jing,
I am really busy, but happy here. I have studied in Churchill Language School for two months. I couldn't completely understand the teachers in class, though I have studied English before. Their English is quite different from what we have learned at home. I'm very lucky because my classmates are really friendly to me and the teachers are helpful. After class I often talk with them in English as much as possible. When I have any questions, I ask my teachers and classmates for help. Now my English has improved a lot and I have fewer difficulties in class than before.
Yours,
Chen Fang

Dear Miss Wang,
Teachers' Day is coming. I want to say “Thank you” for your teaching. You always work hard. You are very kind to us, though sometimes you are strict with us. You try to make your every class lively and interesting. You often tell us funny stories, teach us English songs, and play games with us. We also have English parties together. Thanks to your effort, we are all interested in English. All of us work hard at English and have made great progress. We all love you. Thank you for making English fun. Happy Teachers' Day!
Yours,

Dear Mike,
From the TV I know many A/H1N1 flu cases are reported recently in the United States and many schools are closed as a result. I'm so worried about you. Are you alright? Are there any A/H1N1 flu cases in your school? Do you still have
to go to school every day? To stay away from the disease, you'd better stay at home as much as possible and not go to places where there are many people. Wash your hands more often to
keep them clean; Open the window to have more fresh air in the room; And eat more fruit and vegetables to keep yourself fit and strong. So far the disease is not so deadly as it seems to be. Do be at ease! Take care and you'll be OK.
Yours truly,

Dear Li Hong,
I think some of us have the same trouble as you. Perhaps you may do as follows：First of all, you should keep happy, so you may not get angry with your classmates easily. You should be friendly to greet them when you meet them. Take an active part in group games if you are free. Help your classmates when they are in trouble. Don't laugh at them when they make mistakes. Don't disturb them when they are studying or resting. Of course, it is very necessary to learn to work together in your study. I am sure that if you are kind, friendly and helpful, you'll get on well with your classmates. I hope what I said can help you.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Emily

Hi，Sandy! I hope everything is going well. What's your plan for the coming summer holidays？Some of my classmates would like to go cycling. Will you come with us?
We are planning to ride to the mountains around our city. We hope to get away from our school life and get near to the nature and the fresh air. We hope that we

I'm sure we'll have a wonderful time.
Hope to hear from you soon.

May2，2009 Friday Fine
Today I finished my P.E. test. As a boy I had two parts. One is the long jump, and the other is the 1 000m race. I did better in the 1 000m race. It took me 5 minutes and 20 seconds. But I didn't do well in the long jump. I only jumped 4.5 meters. I love sports. I often play football and basketball in my out-of-class activities. So I think I am pretty fit. This time
the P.E. test is part of the Senior High School entrance test. Most of us are serious about it.

April 1st Tuesday Fine
Richard is my foreign teacher's pet. It's a little white dog with long furry ears. It often helps me do many things. This morning I would have been late without its help. I was still asleep after my alarm rang and it was Richard that woke me up. I was glad to see it waiting for me at the door when I came back home from school. It seemed happy, too. After dinner, I said to it, “Fetch me the book!” And it did it at once. While I was doing my homework, it was lying at my feet in silence. What a lovely dog!

I got up early this morning and had breakfast quickly. Then my mother and I went to my grandmother's home by bus. My grandmother was glad to see me again. She gave me some candies and a cup of milk. She was really kind to me. At noon, we had lunch together. The food was delicious. There were lots of people. After that, I talked with my grandmother happily. Then I played games with my cousins. Finally, I went home with my mother, tired but happy.

This evening I went to Li Jiang's birthday party. We sang and danced.We had a good time at the party. When I left Li Jiang's house, it began to rain. As it was so late, I had to walk home. On my way home, a motorbike ran by me very fast. It hit a boy at the crossing. But the motorbike didn't stop. Instead, it ran away. I felt very angry and wrote down its number：FD2819. I telephoned the police at once. Then I sent the boy to the hospital.

Is it necessary for students to do housework at home? Two students of our school did a survey about this. According to the result, some students (about 30%)thought it was not necessary for students to do housework. They thought it was the job of their parents. As students, their duty was to study hard. They had no time to do housework because of their heavy homework. However, most of the students (about 70%)thought it was good for students to do homework. Because they could learn a lot by doing it, and know how hard their parents worked. I think we students should spend some time on housework, no matter how busy we are.

In May I joined in the Loving Travel which was organized by our city. The topic of the activity is loving parents and taking good care of the old people. About eighty senior citizens took part in it. First we went to Wuhan by bus, and then we went to Guilin by train. All the members were attracted by its beautiful mountains and rivers when we visited Lijiang by boat. The travel lasted five days. The old men and women were looked after very well. They are thankful to their children for their love. They hope more people could enjoy such love.

Helping Each Other Makes the World Wonderful
Hello, everyone. I'm Li Zhi. It's nice to speak about help here. In our life we often help others and also get help from others. When we help our classmates with their study and other things, we can develop our friendship. If we give a hand to old people, we can understand the meaning of pleasure. I think we can get much when we help the people around us. As the saying goes, “Giving is much better than receiving.”Thank you for your listening.

Hello, boys and girls, It's my pleasure to stand here for communicating. Some of you may have begun studying English when you were babies, but as for me, when I first touched English books I was already as “old” as you. I like English. Because I like reading fairy tales. I finished my reading on all Chinese fairy tales, however, I need more. So I went to libraries to find Fairy Tales by Andersen. If you want to learn English well, you can follow these ways: write a diary every day. You can record things you have done or useful expressions you have found. This is a very good way to remember words. OK, these are all I want to say, try your best to study English better!

Someone says，“Time is money.”But I think time is more important than money. Because when money is spent，we can get it back by working hard. However，when time is gone，it'll never come back again. That's why we mustn't waste time. But there are still a lot of people who don't know the importance of time. They waste their time playing games，getting online and doing something else. They don't know that wasting time means wasting part of their own lives. We often say，“How time flies!” So even a second is very important[18:40.14] sometimes. We must make full use of time to do something useful. In a word，we must save time，and we shouldn't leave today's work till tomorrow.

Hi, everyone, It's our duty to save energy and protect the environment. We can do some small things in our daily life. When we are leaving a room, we should turn off the lights. We can turn off the shower while washing our hair. When we go shopping, we should take our own bags. We can try to ride bicycles instead of driving cars or taking buses. We should stop using paper napkins and think of good ways to recycle paper. I think there are many other things we can do. If everyone makes a contribution, the world will become more and more beautiful, and our life will be better and better. That's all. Thank you.

Dear schoolmates,
After the terrible earthquake, our government has made great efforts to rebuild houses and schools. But we often think about the children in the disaster area. We should help them as much as we can.If you have many books, you can send some useful and interesting books to them. If you want to make friends with them, you can write letters to them. If you have saved some pocket money, you can share it with them. We hope children in the disaster area can live a happy life as usual.

Dear schoolmates,
We all know that the Middle School Games will be held in our school. I think it is a good idea for us to be volunteers to serve the event. For example, some plastic bags and packages can be seen in our school while holding the sports meeting. We should pick up the rubbish wherever we see it. Or we can do something helpful for the
players when they need help. It's our duty to keep our school clean. It's our honor to help make the sports meeting a success. Liu Dong

Hello, everyone,
In order to create good network environment, I hope everyone can be a civilized Netizen. I have some ideas: First, please get the good information from the net and keep away from the bad net pages. Second, spend your time wisely and don't drop yourself into the net. Third, please chat politely, and don't meet net-friends without your parents' permission. Fourth, please respect everybody, and don't ask things that other people don't want to tell you. Let's make net-friend of our life and study better together. Let's make a good network environment.

Dear Richard,
I am here to give you some cooling ointment, but you are out. I have to leave a message for you. Cooling ointment is a kind of useful medicine. Most of the Chinese
families often use it in summer. If you are unlucky to have mosquito bites and insects stings, just spread a little on the skin where it hurts. You can also use it when you are carsick or have a headache caused by the hot weather. It is not for eating. Be careful not to let it go into your eyes when using it. Make sure to keep it out of the reach of children. Wish you a wonderful time in Anhui!
Yours,
