My Special Deskmate
Dear Pansy,
How are you?
Kamil Karih, a new student, sits 1 me this term. We are now deskmates. He has a strange name, right? He has brown skin. He was born in Guangzhou, 2 his parents grew up in Pakistan（巴基斯坦）.
When he 3 came to our class, he didn't look happy. He was very quiet and 4 smiled. Later, he 5 us the reasons. His old classmates thought he was weird （奇怪的） and they never talked to him. He 6 found Chinese very difficult to learn.
We think his old classmates were very unfair（不公正的）. Although his Chinese isn't very natural, it's not his fault. He's very friendly and plays 7 very well. Now the boys always play basketball with him 8 school. The girls help him with Chinese. Kamil 9 a lot now.
Is everything OK at your new school in America?I hope the people there are 10 to you!
Love, Rachel
