Dear Wang Yao,
　　Hi! I'm Jim. Nice to meet you. It's very exciting to have a Chinese friend!
In America, school starts at eight-thirty, so I usually get up around seven o'clock.
What time does school start in China? I have breakfast at seven thirty, but before
that I take a shower. My favorite subject is history, because I think it's interesting
and I really like my teacher, Mr. Hall. What' s your favorite subject?
　　My last class is at four o'clock, and after school I like to play basketball.
Can you play basketball? I can also play the guitar, but I can't play it very well.
What are your hobbies?
　　Today I want to go to a movie. Do you like movies? My favorite movies are
action movies and thrillers. I don't like documentaries because I think they're
boring．
　　Please write and tell me about your life in China．
                                                                          Best wishes,
                                                                          Jim

     Jim is ten years old. One day, his friend Tom says to him, "I am going to have a birthday party on
Saturday. Jim, can you come to my party?" "I'll be glad to," answers Jim. 　　
     Before Jim goes to the party on Saturday afternoon, his mother says to him, "Now, Jim, don't forget
to be polite. Don't ask for food until someone gives it to you." 　　
     "All right, Mum," Jim answers, and he goes to Tom's house on his new bike. Then Tom's mother
gives them some food. But she forgets to give Jim any. He waits politely for ten minutes and then he
holds his plate up in the air and says loudly, "Does anyone want a nice and clean plate?"
