Dear

Estelle, Saturday, 5th June

I hope you’ re well and not working too hard! I’ ve been revising for my exams now for the last two weeks. That’ s why I haven’ t written for such a long time.

Since the beginning of this year we’ ve been doing a project called ’ World Class’. Have you heard of it.’? Not everyone in the class could take part, but luckily I could. The school chooses a ’twin school’ (姊妹学校) in a different area of the world. Our head teacher chose a school in Uganda. They gave us someone to write to from that school. For three months, I’ve written to a girl called Louisa, who is the same age as me.

It’ s been more interesting to hear about her life. She’ s told me all about her school and described her daily (日常的) life. I can’ t believe that her School doesn’ t. have any electricity. She goes to ’school from eight o’ clock in the morning until six. O’clock. in the evening. I can’ t believe how lucky we are here! She’ s also told me that she often can’ t go to school because she has to look after her baby brother and sister. She’s tried to teach me some of her language and it’ s really difficult. I love it because it’ s the first time I’ ve thought about what life must be like somewhere else. I can’ t believe people miss classes here when everything is so easy for us. I think more people should help out with projects like this. At the weekend we’ re going to have a sports day to help raise money to send to the school. Perhaps one day I’ll be able to go to Uganda and meet Louisa myself--who knows?

Lots of 1ove, Suzanne

Have you read any books by Washington Irving?Now I will tell you a story written by him. The name of the story is Rip Van Winkle, and it is also the name of the hero in this story. There are three characters

第 8 页 共 14 页

in this story, Rip Van Winkle and his wife, Dame Van Winkle and their dog, Woof. Dame Van Winkle is a sharp-tongued (说话尖酸的、刻薄的) woman. Both Rip Van Winkle and the dog are terrified of her, even of her voice.

There is a scene that can describe how Rip Van Winkle and his dog feel in front of Dame Van Winkle: Rip had just one way of replying to his wife's talk: he only put his head back on his shoulders, looked up toward heaven, and said nothing. . . True, in the woods, Woof was as brave as an honorable dog should be, but as soon as Woof entered the house, his head bent low, his tail lay on the ground or curled between his legs. He went around the house with a guilty look, watching Dame Van Winkle out of the corner of his eyes, ready to run from the room at the slightest sign of her displeasure. This was the time when England ruled America. One day, Rip Van Winkle went into the mountain with his dog for an escape of his wife. He drank something given by some strangers and fell asleep. That was 20 years! His wife died and America got freedom from England, and I think that's what the story wants to tell us: both the poor man's independence and nation's independence.

Why does Irving's story attract people? Because he wrote so vividly(生动地). That sets me thinking: How he observed things so carefully? If you read through this story, you can't help smiling or laughing from time to time!

If you have a brother or a sister, you already know you are different from each other. You live together in the same house and have the same parents.________Why is this? One possible reason is the way your parents treat you.

First—born children receive all the attention from their parents. Most families have much more photos of a first—born than any other child. Parents give them more responsibility(责任)________As a result, first—borns are often responsible, hard—working and serious. They often want to do well at school and work.________For example, Gorge Bush, George Washington, and Lyndon Baines Johnson are all first—born.

When a second child arrives, parents are more relaxed. The second child is allowed to be more independent. But he also has to compete with the first—born for the parents' attention and love. These children often choose different sports and hobbies to show independence.________They are often adventurous(爱冒险的), fun—loving, and outgoing, but can be jealous(好嫉妒的)and get angry easily. The youngest child is the happiest. He has fewer responsibilities and more freedom. These children do not feel pressure to do well at school and work, but have to be creative to get their family's attention.________So, many famous talk—show hosts and comedians were born last.
