My name is Bill. I’m an English boy. I’m fourteen years old. I’m a student in a junior high school. I’m in Class 9, Grade 8. I like English very much. Sam is my good friend. He comes from Canada. He is thirteen years old. He is in Class 5, Grade 8. He is tall and he has yellow hair. His nose is big and his mouth is wide. I’m not tall and my hair is brown. I have a small nose and a small mouth. We don’t look the same. Miss Liu is my English teacher. But she is not Sam’s teacher. We don’t know her age. But she looks very young. She looks like Sam’s Chinese teacher, Miss Wen. Miss Liu and Miss Wen are good friends. They often have dinner and go shopping together(一起).

Hello! My name is Bill Miller. Bill is my first name and Miller is my last name. I’m a student in No.11 Middle School in Beijing, China. My favorite color is yellow. My jacket is blue. I don’t like blue, but my friend likes it a lot. My favorite number is eight. My telephone number is 288-3288.

My friend Alan is an English boy. He likes the number eight, too. His favorite color is blue. His jacket, rulers and pens are blue. He also likes white. He has a white cup. Do you have a friend? Can you tell (告诉) me her/his name and phone number?

How is your new school life? Good or bad? My new school life is very nice! Do you want to know something about it? Let me tell you.

Every morning, our class starts at 7:40. And we always have Chinese, English or math for the first class. The first class in the afternoon starts at 2:30. We have four classes in the morning and three in the afternoon. Our school finishes at 4:50. After school, I like playing ping-pong with my classmates. My favorite day is Friday. Do you know why? Because I have two science lessons on that day! Science is difficult, but it is interesting and useful.

Our school also has a basketball game in November. It’s from November 5th to 8th. You can come to watch the game if you want. And we have a book sale next month. That’s all about my life. It’s busy, but I love it. How about yours? Write to me when you are free.

Yours,

David
