Celia's pen friend Li Hua has sent her an email. Part of it says:

Here's Celia's reply (回复).

Hi, Li Hua, 

It's great to hear from you.

Do you know National Space Day? In my country, we celebrate it on the first Friday of May every year. 

It was National Space Day last Friday. My brother Jimmy asked me to go to the museum with him. I didn't want to go at first. But he promised to teach me how to ride a bike, so I went there with him by bus. I thought the museum was just so-so, but Jimmy really loved it.

Now, let me tell you about the museum. It's also called the NASM. It has a history of over seventy years. In 1976, the NASM opened its main building. In 2016, the museum received about 7. 5 million visitors, making it the third most visited museum in the world and the most visited museum in the US.

Jimmy has taken a lot of photos of the museum. Do you want to have a look at them? If so, I will ask him to send some to you. 

Yours,

Celia
