    Dear John,

    Thank you very much for your letter. We are glad that you enjoyed your holiday with us. We enjoyed having you and your sister here. We hope that you will both be able to come again next year. A week is not really long enough, is it? If your school has a five­week holiday next year, perhaps(也许)you'll be able to stay with us for two or three weeks.

    We have been back to school for three weeks now. It feels like three months! I expect(期望) that you are both working very hard since(因为) you are in Grade One. I shall work hard next year when I am in Grade One. Tom and Ann won't be in Grade One until two years later.

    They went for a picnic yesterday but I didn't go with them because I cut my foot and I couldn't walk. They went to an island and enjoyed themselves there. Do you still remember the island? That's where all of us spent the last day of our holiday.

    Tom, Ann and I send our best wishes to you and Betty. We hope to see you soon.

Yours,

Michael
