Dear Mom,

Today is Sunday. I don't go school. I stay at home. So I can (write) to you now. Every day, I go to school seven thirty in the morning. We have four (lesson) in the morning. We read write in Chinese at school.

There are fifty-five students in my class. Four of (they) are Americans. The other students are (China). Chinese people are friendly. Now I have some Chinese (friend). My classmates (be) all my friends. They teach (I) Chinese. I can speak a little Chinese now. Please don't worry about me.

Yours,
Kate

I work in a bank from Monday to Friday. My house is near a park and is about ten kilometers from my office. I usually go to work by train. I usually get up at 6:30 a. m. and take the train at 7: 00 a. m. It usually takes me about thirty minutes to get to my office. The train is quick and cheap. I am never late for work.

I am a student. My house is near a beautiful lake. My school is across from the lake. I can walk to school across a bridge. It takes me about thirty minutes. But I often go to school by boat, because it is more fun. It takes me about twenty minutes.

I am a waitress. I work in a restaurant from Monday to Saturday. I often go to work by bus. It is about five kilometers from my house to the restaurant. It takes me about twenty-five minutes to go to work. Sometimes I am late for work because the traffic is very busy.
