dear peter,
we’re so glad you’re coming to join us on sunday. here is how you can find us. we’ll have our picnic in the people’s park. you know where that is, don’t you? after you enter the park by the main gate, walk straight on till you come to a stream. cross the stream and turn right. after walking for a while, you’ll come to a hill. walk round to the other side of the hill. there you’ll see a lake. we’ll have our picnic there in the small woods by the lake. i’m sure you’ll have no trouble finding us. do come.

today we visited a farm. early in the morning, we met at the school gate and went there together the farm workers gave us a warm welcome. then the head of the farm showed us around.
how glad we were to see the crops and vegetables growing well. at noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. after a ten minutes’ break, we had great fun singing and dancing, telling jokes(笑话) or stories. two of us *n played a * of chess. the time passed quickly. before we knew it,we had to say goodbye to the workers.

today is the 16th teacher’s day. this morning, the head* praised the teachers who did well in their teaching work and gave some teachers medals for their having completed thirty years of teaching. our english teacher was among them. this afternoon some of my classmates and i went to visit him in his office and we were warmly received by him. we had a talk with him for some time.
he encouraged us to study hard and be good students. by talking with him we were deeply inspired.
