Dear Zhang Hua,

   Have you ever been to Thailand? It is a country in Southeast Asia.I’ve been in Thailand for a few days with my parents.We are here for a holiday.

  Now we are staying in Bangkok(曼谷).It is the capital of Thailand and it is a very interesting place to visit.Yesterday we visited some places of interest in the city.They are great! This morning we went shopping.Bangkok is a wonderful place to shop for jewelry (珠宝)and clothes.My mother bought a nice necklace(项链).My father and I bought some fashionable T-shirts.

    Thailand is called “Land of Smiles” because people here are very friendly.And it’s true! When we eat in the restaurants in Bangkok,the waiters are really nice and they are always smiling.Thai food is delicious,but it is sometimes a little spicy(辛辣的)for me. You can also get Chinese food here because a lot of Chinese people came to live in Bangkok many years ago.Chinese food is very good,and it isn’t as spicy as Thai food. Our American food can also be found in Bangkok,however,I don’t eat it.You know,I’d like to new things when I travel.

    The weather has been very hot.Yesterday it rained and got a little cooler.But today it’s hot again.

    Yours,

Mary

    I am Steve.I was born and grew up in South Wales.My favorite place to play was out on the hills where my imagination had plenty of space to expand(拓展).

    My family moved out of Wales when I was thirteen.I went to a new school.One of my subjects was French.Because I had never learned any French,my teacher told me to sit in the corner and write anything I was interested in.That’s the time I started writing,just for myself, and I’ve been writing ever since.

    I have always loved BIG IDEAS.and so I enjoy writing fantastic stories.And I also write horror(恐怖的)stories.I think they are like the old fairytales(童话故事),and can teach you important things.

    I am in my forties on the outside,twelve on the inside.I like rock music,Indian and Chinese food.and I enjoy drinking.I live in a small village with my wife Mary,ducks,cats,goats,hens and lots of rabbits.If you’d like to find out more about me and hope to buy my books,go to www. sbowkett. freeserve. co. uk.
