Dear Alex,

Hearing that you will return to your country soon, I feel a bit upset. But meanwhile, I want to send my sincere gratitude for your kind help with my English learning.

I still remember what you have devoted to improving my oral English and written English. Besides, you also frankly shared your learning experience with me. Additionally, without your help, I would not have been a top student in English and would not have won the English Speech Contest. All in all, words fail to express my thanks to you.

I do hope that you will have a bright future and that our friendship will last forever!

Yours,

Dear Joe,

Just as you’ve read, in an attempt to prevent the novel coronavirus from spreading, many schools in our country have put off opening, and my school is no exception. However, instead of idling our time away, we attend classes online under the guidance of our school, listening to teachers on the mobile phone or the computer. This is a good way to guarantee that we won’t miss our lessons. In this case, we students stay positive that our country can defeat the disease and our schooling won’t be held back.

Best wishes!

Dear Peter,

How is everything going? In your last letter, you asked me about the garbage classification in my community, so I’m writing to tell you some details about it.

The garbage classification activity was launched in our community last month. People are required to sort household garbage into four categories, each of which is supposed to be thrown into certain bins. Individuals who fail to do so will be fined. Although people were confused with the garbage classification in the beginning, they are much better at sorting garbage now with the help of a special app.

Personally, I’m in full support of garbage classification because it contributes to arousing people’s awareness of protecting the environment. Hopefully my information is of help to you.

Best wishes!

　　Glad to hear from you again. How’s everything going? What about your summer holiday?

Every day in the morning we had classes to learn how to greet guests, how to offer service to them and the knowledge of related sports games. In the afternoon, we took physical exercise.

　　The training was so interesting and useful that all of us devoted ourselves to it. I hope I will perform the task well.
