1. Dear Tom,

I'm glad to hear from you. As we all know, Beijing is the capital of China and it is not only one of the most modern cities in China but also a city with a long history.

First of all, if you want to go sight-seeing, it’s a good idea to visit the Forbidden City. You might learn a lot about the history of China there. Walking around Bird Nest is also a good choice. You can take some photos of this international stadium. If you want to enjoy the natural scenery, you can climb the Great Wall. The views are really beautiful there. Besides, traveling around the center of Beijing by bus is also very convenient. By the way, be sure not to miss the Beijing roast duck and local snacks. It does taste very delicious.

In a word, enjoy your trip in Beijing. Wish you a good time.

Yours,

Li Lei 初三一班 王思齐

4. I love my school deeply and among all these amazing places, our painting studio is my favorite. It’s a small but warm classroom with colorful pictures decorating the walls. Not only do I love the artistic environment but also I enjoy the harmonious atmosphere. We improve our skills while relaxing ourselves, which becomes my best memory during these days. What’s more, whenever I feel down, both painting and classmates never fail to cheer me up in our little studio. Thus, the studio is like my old friend.

All in all, my favorite place at school is full of our sweet memories, which I will cherish forever. I believe our friendship will be as colorful as the paintings hanging on the walls.

5. There are many places at school, such as the playground, the small garden, the swimming pool and the library. My favorite place is the library. It’s very big, bright and colorful. There are thousands of books, news and magazines. There are even some sofas to make you comfortable.

There are many things to do there. Not only can I read books, but also I can do homework, surf the internet, even sleep. I like the peaceful atmosphere. It makes me feel relaxed. Our school’s library is also a bookstore. If you find some books you like, you can buy them.

In general, the school library is a good place to have a rest. When I am stressed out or feel down, I’ll go there and read books. I’ll lose in my world completely. When I stay here, time goes quickly. Besides, not only can I enrich my knowledge, but also I can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere, so the school library is my favorite place at school. (168 words)

6. I like the reading room best.

The reading room in our school is large. There’re more than 10,000 books in the room. The color of the wall is white. According to the color science, white can make people calm and quiet. It provides a perfect environment for the readers. And personally, I like white very much.

I like reading all kinds of books, but history and science are always my favorite. The reading room has this kind of books that I like. I seems the place is built for me. The first time I came to the reading room, I was attracted by the peaceful place. I saw a boy who was reading a book I like, so I took a book and sat near him. We talked, and I was surprised to find that he has so many hobbies as I do. So we became friends. It seems that the reading room is also a good place to make friends.

I love this beautiful and quiet place. 初三三班 盛维海

7. Time goes by, three years’ school life is drawing to the close all of a sudden. But the garden, a small place of my school, left me a deep impression.

There are lots of lawns and flowers surrounding this garden, which makes it pretty beautiful and full of energy. I bet you will wonder why I like this small corner of the school. First of all, it’s absolutely a good place for me to study in the morning. With the fascinating smells and fresh air of the garden, I can devote myself to studying and going over what I’ve learned heartily and effectively. In addition, I can also relax my mind in so peaceful an environment here. No matter when I feel down or tired, I would like to come here. It’s so amazing that I can comfort myself and forget all my sadness while placing myself here.

In a word, the memories of the garden will be both valuable and unforgettable in my whole life.

8. An Impressive Place

About China, theres just so much to appreciate. In my opinion, among these attractive cities, Shanghai sounds like the best choice of all. I’m willing to visit there again.

The weather there is suitable for the visitors——warm，windless, the sky without a cloud. Also, it’s a perfect place mixture of historic sceneries and modern things. I’m interested in its long and splendid history. For instance, people always visit the Town God’s Temple when they come to Shanghai. On one side you can learn about a lot of touching stories there, on the other side you ought to try the famous food——Small Steamed Bun. In addition, are you crazy about shopping? Shanghai is really a paradise for shopping. It’s always easy for people to get inexpensive goods of best quality.

I’m dreaming of going there for another time! 初三六班 崔婉荧
