书面表达

  假如你叫小华,下面是你收到的你祖父从美国的来信。请你根据来信的内容写一封回信(要求:100词左右)。

May 6, 2007

  Dear Xiao Hua,

  I had a letter from your mother a few days ago, but she didn't give me much news about you. She said you went on an ecology summer camp. When I heard that you had seen a snake, I was worried. I hoped someone killed it! I was sorry to hear that you had hurt your knee. How did that happen? I hope it is better now.

  I know your birthday is coming soon, so I am enclosing (附上) a check for you. Write soon and tell me what you decide to do with the money. I want you to spend it on some-thing nice.

  With lots of love.

Yours,

Grandpa
