Have you ever heard of the Watoto Children’s Choir(合唱团)?It is a music group from Africa. It works to improve the way of life for children in Africa. The choir is traveling all over the world with a team of adults. Their performances mix native African music and dance with modern style.

The choir was started in Kampala, Uganda. Watoto means “children” in Swahili(斯瓦希里语). The choir is made up of people who have lost one or both of their parents.

The Watoto Child Care Ministries(部门)provide care for orphans(孤儿)in Uganda. The Watoto Village is a collection of houses built especially for the orphans.

The children will be looked after with health care and food and get the love that every child needs.

Dennis Kiima is the team leader of the Watoto Children’s Choir. He said,“Our goal is to raise the future leaders of Uganda. We hope they will change the country for the better. We can’t tell what will happen. It’s either good or bad, and we’re hoping for the best. ”

Dear Li Chen,

How are you? Thanks for your letter. History and math are my favorite subjects too. I think they are interesting. l know your school is over(结束) at 5:30 p.m. lt's too late! Our school is over at 3:40 p.m. every day. Then I can do many after-school activities with my classmates.

On Monday and Tuesday afternoon, I have a drawing lesson from 4:00 to 5:00. I'm good at it. My dream(梦想) is to he an artist. On Tuesday afternoon, I have a swimming lesson. I don't like sports, but my mother thinks it can help me keep(保持) healthy. On Wednesday afternoon, I'm free. I usually go to the school library with my best friend, Kate. Our school library is very big. We can read many kinds of books there. On Friday afternoon, I go back home early. Then my parents take me to my grandparents' home and have a big dinner with them.

I'm free on weekends because I don't have too much homework. I usually go shopping with my friends or watch TV at home. I feel happy.

Yours,

Alice
