Dear Dave,
I’m not happy. There are too many rules in my house. It isn’t fair. I have to get up at five o’clock every morning. I can’t arrive late for school. I have to be there at eight o’clock. I have to come back home after school because I have to do my homework. In the evening I can’t watch TV because I have to help my mother make dinner and wash the dishes. I have to go to bed before ten o’clock. On weekends, I have to stay at home on Saturday morning. I have to clean my room and wash my clothes by eleven o’clock. On Saturday afternoon, I have to go to the children’s palace to learn the piano. Do you have lots of rules? Are they fair?                                                                   
Your friend,
Alice

Dear Alice,

　　Thank you for your last letter (信). I enjoyed reading it very much. Thank you for telling me about your best friend. In this letter I will tell you about mine. Her name is Trudy. Trudy has long, dark brown hair and green eyes. She is the same age as me, but a little taller. She is always happy.

　　We sit together in class, and help each other with our schoolwork. We always go home together after school and play computer games for an hour. Trudy thinks very quickly and usually wins.

　　Trudy is learning to play the piano. I am learning to play the flute (笛子). We practice together every day.

　　Sometimes Trudy stays in my house for a night, or I stay in her house. We always have a good time. Do you ever stay in your best friend's house for a night?

Write soon,

Love Lily
