Dear Mom,
I'm happy to get your letter (信). I'm very good at school. Do you want to know about my afterclass time? Well, the classes finish at half past four. We have different activities (不同的活动) after class. I usually go to the library and read books on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It's relaxing. I usually play pingpong with my classmates on Wednesdays. I'm not good at it, but I like it. On Fridays, I always go to the art club, because I like drawing. I can draw dogs well now. We usually have dinner at six o'clock.
In the evening, we study in the classroom from 7: 00 to 8: 30. We usually do our homework. Science is difficult, but my friend Alan helps me with it. I often either listen to music or talk with my roommates (室友) before bedtime (就寝前). Then we go to bed at ten o'clock.
Remember (记得) to pick me up (接我) at five o'clock on Friday afternoon.
Yours,
Cindy

My name is Lily. I am a Chinese girl but I'm in a middle school in America now. I have much free time every day. So I get a job in my free time. I work in a big store. I don't get much money (钱) but I get some other (其他的) things from the job. I know how to talk with strangers (陌生人) and how to be good with people. On weekends I go to an old people's home. I make my days busy and I don't have time to talk with my family and friends in China. After three months, I meet some difficult things in my life. This time I think of my family and friends so I go back to China. I think they can help me.
After coming home, I meet my family and some of my old friends. They talk with me and help me overcome the difficulties (克服困难). Now no matter (不论) how busy I am, I'll call my family and friends every week.
Dear Yang Jun,
How are you? You ask me about my favorite subjects. I think math and geography are my favorite. They are interesting and useful. Our last class finishes at 3: 30. Do you think it's late or early? We have lots of afterschool activities. For me, I like going to the sports club with my classmates. At about a quarter to five I go home. On school days I never watch TV because I'm busy. I usually do my homework first after getting home. It usually takes me about an hour. Then I have dinner with my parents at about six o'clock. I always take a shower and go to bed at half past eight. But I'm always free on weekends. So I can either go to the library or clean the rooms with my parents. Sometimes we play tennis on Saturday afternoons. I have a happy life. What about you?
Yours,
Karl
