Folding Paper on Weekends

Boys and girls, what did you do last weekend? There are many things you could do. Some boys went out to play soccer or tennis and some girls just stayed at home and did some reading. Now it's time to do something new on weekends. A French young man Eric Joisel has his own idea about that.

Eric Joisel in Paris, France, is interested in paper folding (折纸). Not like others, he doesn't think it is just for children. He spent many weekends in folding paper. Then he held his first origami show in Paris. The word "origami" is from Japanese. It is the art of folding paper into different shapes (形状) like flowers and animals.

Paper folding is now very popular around the world. Many people love doing it. Would you like to have a try next weekend?

Dear Eric, How is it going these days? I'm having a great time  my uncle in Kunming, China. It's winter, but the weather here is not . Today is Sunday. My uncle doesn't have to go to work,  he takes me and my cousin Tony to the park.

In the park, we see lots of people. Some  are playing games. Some old men are walking  the river. What is my uncle doing? He is  with his friend under a tree. They are very . My cousin is  apple juice. I'm sitting on the grass and  to you. Oh, my uncle is calling me. I have to say !

I miss you!

Yours,

Linda
