Emailing my friend Xiao Ma about visiting her in New York 大家好， love to chat to you all! Please would you be so kind as to check my email to my friend Xiao Ma about visiting her in new york. 谢谢你们！ 小马，你好！ 最近好吗？你爸爸妈妈都好吗？纽约好玩吗？工作怎么样？ 假期的时候，我要去纽约玩几天。因为我以前从来没去大城市。还有，我没去过美国。我听说纽约很热闹。你告诉我那里人多极了，不像小的奥克兰！到了纽约，我打算买东西（贴别试衣服！），看见时代广场和漫步中央公园。 你知道我没有很多钱。请你帮我找一个便宜旅馆。一天一百块左右就可以。还有，一个旅馆离地铁很近所以买东西很方便。 到了纽约以后，我可以去你家玩吗？请你给我打电话。我的打电话是649-4144220。谢谢你。再见！ 伊莎贝拉

Writing about watching a basketball match with friends. 大家好， Sorry long time no see! 最近我很忙。做很多学习 as was coming up to my exams! love to chat to you all! Please would you be so kind as to check my email to a Chinese friend about my daily routine and weekend. Thank you so much! (^.^) 谢谢你们！ 我不喜欢很多运动，可是我爱打篮球。我打得不错，但是我没有我的朋友Carly那么好。她打篮球打得可好了！Carly是我们学校篮球女队的队长。她跑得很快，比男队的队长快！ （she runs so fast, faster than the captain of my schools male basketball team!) 上个月，她请我去篮球比赛因为我们都是球迷。她告诉我新西兰队跟悉尼的Kings队。我说“当然了！” 所以我们去了。那天晚上我们从学校坐公共汽车去城市。下车以后，Carly说“我希望今晚不会下雨。” 我们都没有雨伞所以几步。(neither of us had an umbrella so we walked quickly) 到了Vector Arena体育场,我们去买两张票。 那晚场上观众多极了。比赛很激烈。上半场了，两个队还没有进！我们觉得新西兰队不会赢因为他们没有那么悉尼队强。下半场，新西兰打得可好了。最后，我们新西兰队一比零赢了悉尼的Kings。我们和新西兰球迷非常高兴。 现在，我和Carly看新西兰队一定比澳大利亚队好。(now, Carly and I think the New Zealand basketball team is better than Australian team!)
