Dear Mum and Dad,

    It was a great idea to send me over to Britain to learn English this summer.I’ve  1  so many students from Sweden.France and other countries all over the world.

    The family I live with are very nice.But they have some  2  habits.They drink tea all(at the breakfast,at the afternoon and at the bed time,  4  they eat butter with salt in it! If I go out in the evening,I often eat fish and chips.the  5   is wrapped up(包)in a newspaper.

    Here on the coast,we travel by bus.I was knocked down by an old lady the 6   day because I didn’t stand in the queue;she  7  me over the head her handbag.English people seem very quiet and reserved usually.If we make a noise on the bus they look 8 and uncomfortable.so I was veryto see how violent(粗暴的)they became about queues.

    Most English people only talk about the  10  .They do have a lot to talk about rain,wind and sometimes fog.Also,if you ask them directions,they suddenly become very chatty and go on for hours.

    I’d like to come back here next year to see all my friends again.Oh,yes,and to learn some British English.

                                                               Your loving son,

                                                                        Hans

    Round eyes,round head,round ears,round body! What is this lovely little animal? He looks like a bear.But he is not a bear.He’s a KOALA.People in Australia love koalas and take care of them.They have set up places for them to live safely.No one can kill them for their pretty fur(毛皮).When a koala is born,he has no fur.And he is not as big as your little toe(脚趾)! The mother koala has a pocket in the front of her body.The baby goes into this warm pocket.There he stays for six months.

    when the baby leaves the pocket,he has much fur.And he is about as big as your shoes.He climbs to his mother’s back.He rides there while she teaches him how to find food.Mrs. Koala is a loving mother.He takes good care of her baby.But when he is bad she beats him! The baby cries just as a small child does.If he keeps on crying,his mother beats him again.When he stops crying.she takes him in her arms.And then both go to sleep for a while.

    The koala could not live without a special kind of tree.The tree gives him both his home and his food.For most of the day the koala sleeps in the tree.

    At night the koala looks for food.He may go miles to find it.He likes only the bark(树皮)and the leaves of the tree.He eats nothing else.And he eats more than two pounds each night!

  Some people say Jacky is the best Chinese singer.I don’t think so! Andy is the best.I went to his concert last year.It was so hard to believe,I almost cried! OK,I did cry,but that’s because Andy is so hand-some!

  I don’t agree at all.Andy sounds like every other singer.His voice is nothing special.On the other hand,Jacky’s voice is different from others,and his songs are so romantic!

   I think they’re about the same.But Andy is really a better actor(演员).I’ve seen almost all of his movies.Remember the one where he was an airplane pilot(飞行员),and his plane crashed near a farm? I love that movie!
