Subject：My best friend
Dear Alice,
Thank you for your last letter, 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?
