Hi Li Ming,
I have a lot of homework this year! All of our teachers make us study very,
very hard. I am very tired.
Some of my classes are a lot of fun. My favourite class is physical
education (P.E.). Yesterday in P.E. class, I put Brian’s shorts on my head and
his runners on my hands. Everyone laughed except the teacher. “That’s not
funny, Danny,” he said. But I saw him smile. Time for supper! Write to me
soon!
Danny

to use English every day. It is the best way to learn the language. You have
helped me a lot. Ms. Liu gives us lots of interesting projects in English class.
This week, we are talking about our favourite subjects in school.
I like English best. I also like maths. My friend Wang Mei is very good at
maths. She has helped me with my maths homework a lot. We will have a
maths exam this Friday. We are going to study together tonight.
Your friend,
Li Ming
