Hi, my name is Li Xin and I live in Shanghai now. But I was born in a small village and studied in the primary school there. There were many children in the village. Li Ting was my good friend. We were at the same school and we often did our homework together. There was a small river near our village. We often played there in summer. In winter we didn’t go there often. Now Li Ting lives in Nanjing with her parents. We often send emails to each other.

Hello, I’m Martin and I live in a big town with my family. When I was eight years old, we were in a small village. There was lots of grass there. Children in the village liked to play games on the grass. And our dogs were always with us. My sister Lucy was good at drawing. So some of us were always in her pictures. Now there is a picture on the wall in my room. In it, I’m running after a mouse on the grass.
