亲爱的武汉朋友：

你好!

2020年的春节注定是不平凡的，武汉成了新型冠状病毒肺炎的重灾区。为了防止病毒的传播，武汉主动封城，“封一座城，护一国人!”

我想说九八年的洪水没有难住我们，零三年的非典没有打败我们。零八年的地震没有打垮我们，今年的病毒也不会打败我们，武汉加油!中国加油!

疫情发生到现在，做一名小学生，我每天都关注着与疫情有关的事件，当我得知有第一批病人出院时，我也跟着松了口气。

亲爱的武汉朋友，我想对你们说：“你们从不孤独，因为全国各地，千家万户，国内国外，只要有中国人的地方就一份关爱和一份牵挂!”外国的华侨买了成千上万的口罩寄回给武汉，一位七十多岁的环卫工爷爷把自己唯一的一万多块钱捐给红十字会给武汉买口罩，那些医护人员，全副武装坚守在医院的病人身边，他们冒着被传染的危险。全国各地派出最优秀的医疗团队支援武汉。我想说：“武汉加油，中国加油，我们在一起!”

此致

敬礼

吉林省第二实验学校四年一班赵梓良

你们好!

我是一个中国小朋友，我生活在一个和平的环境中。中国是一个可爱、美丽、富裕而又生机勃勃的国家，这里没有仇恨，也没有硝烟，更没有战争。我们在空闲时间外出虽然我们从来没有见过面，也不曾相识，但我非常同情你们，欣赏江南美景、塞北风光，名胜古迹。在今天，我们中国小朋友过得很幸福。

虽然我们从来没有见过面，也不曾相识，但我非常同情你们，在电视上我看到你们那儿不和平，正在发生的战争使你们国家人民的生命财产遭受到了严重损失，尤其是看到少年儿童在战争硝烟中哭泣的画面，我的心在震撼。我们爱好和平的心是相通的，我要尽最大努力来帮助你们，减轻你们的战争苦难。

我们中国有句名言：“家和万事兴”。你们国家的人们要团结一心，努力进取才能把你们的国家建设好，才能不被外人欺负，人民才能过上幸福的和平生活。你们才能够有一个好的学习环境。

我们要再一次向全世界大声疾呼：我们应该一致行动起来，维护和平，制止战争!让二十一世纪已经能够听到的脚步声为和平敲响希望的钟。让明天的世界充满阳光、鲜花和友爱!

祝你们和你们的国家，早日迎来和平的阳光，各民族人民过上美好幸福的生活。祝你们身体健康，天天快乐，愿你们那儿早日结束战争，迎来和平。

Dear Ms. Fu,

亲爱的付老师，

I would like you to know that I appreciate the help and support you gave to

me when I was in junior high school. I enjoyed being taught by you immensely.

You are an excellent teacher and inspired me to continue learning with an open

and positive mind.

我想让您知道我非常感激在我上初中的时候你给予的帮助和支持。我非常喜欢你做我的老师。你是一个优秀的教师，鼓励我以开放和积极的态度继续学习。

I would like to convey my heartfelt gratitude to you for teaching me what

is responsibility. You helped me how to find the best place for myself and look

for the personal values. I remember you gave me a book as a present of the

Spring Festival. You are the first teacher who gave me a present which I was

moved for a long time.

我衷心的感谢你教会了我什么是责任。你帮我找到最适合自己的位置并和个人价值。我记得你曾给我一本书作为春节的礼物。你是第一个给我礼物的老师，这让我感动了很久。

I would further say that you gave me so good memories that I wish I could

go back to that time again. It was you who encouraged me to overcome obstacles.

It was you who cared about my emotions. I appreciate all you have done for me,

which meant so much to me. I hope that this letter brings my best wishes to you

and I once again thank you for giving me those precious memories of my life,

which I shall cherish forever.

我还想说你给了我这么美好的回忆，我希望我能再次回到那个时候。是你鼓励我克服困难。是你关心我的情绪。我很感激你为我所做的一切，这对我来说是很重要的。我希望这封信能给你带去我最好的祝福，我再次感谢你给我的生活带来那些珍贵的回忆，我会永远珍惜它的。

Sincerely yours,

dear teacher,

it has been a long time since i wrote the last letter. nowdays, people

write letters less and less, instead, they make a call or send a sms. however,

it is still a good way for us to communicate with each other by sending a

letter

its my honour to get the chance to write to you. "approachable" is my

first impression of you, because you always keeps smiling. students may fear the

teachers that are serious both in and out of class. smile makes a teacher

popular with his students, you are a teacher of this very kind.

you always arrive at the classroom ahead of any of the students, from which

we could imply that you are a diligent man with regular habit. before the class,

you like to talk to us, at this very time, you are more a friend than a teacher.

to be honest, i was surprised in the first class when i learned a teacher at

your age could speak english insuch a fluent way.(i didnt mean you are old,

youre young at heart.) moreover, you know well how to keep your class

attractive. youve got such an active mind that you can keep talking during the

whole class without a pause. i always appreciated your ideas and enjoyed

listening to you. in your class, i learned not only the writing skills but also

the presentation skills as well as much knowledge of other areas. thanks for

your excellent teaching.

ive got some suggestions for you. it seems that we students have got few

chances to participate in discussion during the class time. most of the time, we

are listening. seldom did we express our own ideas. i suggest that teachers

should interact with students more frequently in the class. besides, id like to

practice writing more, so would you please leave us more assignments?

happy new year.

with every good wish.

yours sincerely dali wang

亲爱的新疆小朋友：

你好!

我来自于浙江省瑞安市的一位小学生，我叫戴天祯。我就读于瑞安第二实验小学五(4)班。我们学校是一个美丽的校园，有长满花草树木的天井花园，也有高大的教学楼。我们的班级，同学们十分友好，是一个文明的班级。

我有一个充满爱的家庭。弟弟妹妹、爸爸妈妈、爷爷奶奶，一家和和睦睦。弟弟妹妹活泼可爱，乱蹦乱跳。我是一个活泼开朗的小女孩，我喜欢运动。我爱画画、书法。虽然我有许多优点，但是我的缺点却一大堆：粗心、丢三落四、懒惰等等。记得有一次数学考试，我说：“我一定会考一百分。”可是没想到，等第二天试卷发下来，我只考了95分，我的心情一下子从晴空万里跌到了乌云密布。仔细一看，原来应用题里数字抄错扣了5分。这是粗心的我。

我爱自己的家乡---浙江省温州市。那里有高楼杨梅，陶山甘蔗，湖岭牛肉......这儿有清清的小溪，高高的山。风景优美的寨寮溪，清晰如镜的飞云江，收藏着许多书的玉海楼。我的家乡物产丰富，家乡人民的感情友好。广场上，大家又跳又玩。如果有兴趣的话，可以到我们这参观参观，玩一玩哦!

我有两只大眼睛，一张能说会道的大嘴巴。也许你也是一个无忧无虑的女孩，或是一个有着远大志向的男孩，不管怎么样，希望你能融如到温州这个大家庭里，与我们一起手拉手，让我们一起等待那一天的到来。

远方的新疆小朋友，我们一起在同一个国家生活，就会创造出更美好的明天。如果你愿意与我做朋友，那你就回信吧。让我们一起创造一个更加美好的21世纪吧!

祝你

好好学习，天天向上!

远方的朋友：

你好!

我是__省__市__区广场路小学的一名学生。你是男是女，是胖是瘦，是高是矮，我都不知道。但是，我们肯定有一个共同点，那就是我们在同一片蓝天下生活,学习。

我生活在__。这里风景十分秀丽，山有“海上名山、寰中绝胜”之誉的雁荡山，水有“天下第一水”之称的楠溪江，街有__旧城商业文化氛围最为浓厚的五马街，岛有瓯江蓬莱之称的江心屿，一副大好山河的画面。

我的脑袋瓜非常灵活，爱好很多，比如，写作文、吹笛子、打乒乓球、玩游戏。我最光辉的一面就是作文了，我的作文曾多次在各种杂志报刊上刊登。我的学习很好，但我也非常外玩。在玩的前提下，我会完成所有的学习任务。

我还对历史方面和武侠方面有着一些小偏好。在我认为，玩不能纯玩，要有知识的玩。比如《瘟疫公司》这款游戏，不仅可以学到很多地名国名，还可以学到很多疾病的名称。

有句话是这样说的“雄心壮志是茫茫黑夜中的北斗星。”这是英国诗人剧作家罗伯特?勃朗宁说的。北斗星是非常亮的，又在茫茫黑夜之中，这就是说人必须要有雄心壮志。这就是我送你的名言。

欢迎你有空来__做客!也欢迎你给我来信!

祝：心想事成有才华，健康快乐学习好!

Dear Zhang,

I am really sorry to tell you that I was unable to attend your birthday

party yesterday evening. That is owing to the fact that my old friends visited

my house without telling me the exact time. I had to entertain those friends

with my passion in the entire evening,and I will continue to entertain them in

the following two days.

I really regret that I havent go to celebrate your birthday personally and

had missed a wonderful chance to enjoy myself with our kind colleages. I have

prepared a pretty gift to you yesterday and will send to you this afternoon to

show my best birthday wishes. Besides, I trust that you will understand me.

Best wishes,

yours sincerely,

Tom

外国的小朋友：

你好，你一定知道中国吧！我就是一个中国的小朋友，我的家乡就是有着“上有天堂，下有苏杭”美誉的苏州。今年，我想邀请你来我的家乡做客。

我家乡的风景名胜那是数不胜数啊！这里有安静的，闭目养神的园林，有被称为中国第一斜塔的虎丘，还有热闹非凡的平江路，山塘街，观前街……。其中，最具有代表性的就是山塘街了。如果你去过山塘街，你肯定会被人山人海的样子吓到吧！走进山塘街，到处都是吆喝声，街的两旁要么就是商店，要么就是美食店。河上还有一艘艘小船，仿佛就像是把人带入仙境似的。

说到美食，肯定会让你垂涎欲滴。最有名的就是我的最爱——阳澄湖大闸蟹。这阳澄湖大闸蟹可是别的地方吃不到的哦！秋风起，蟹脚痒，十月的大闸蟹最是肥美。蟹肉既紧实又鲜美，蟹黄可谓是无法形容的好吃，而且色香味俱全，今年谢霆锋还来我们苏州参加捕捉呢！

听了我的描述，你动心了吗？动心你就来吧！

In the grave yard of Africa, there was an old gentleman that seemed just

like a normal garden, but yet it didn’t seem like it at all.

When the time had passed in order to make the world’s life come true, some

of the famous writers like Todd Marin were provided in the group’s mayor of

Pairs. It was an odd word, but also inside the effects of programming on a

website; I have a funny story.

One day I was going out on the road, I found out that I had left my wallet,

and so I had to go back and fetch it; after that I started away again. But I

found out that going on foot my feet was like very sour, then I had to go back

and ride on my bike. When I road it almost half way to school, I figured out

that my project was at home, I had to go back again; that made me exhausted, but

I prefer that way since my teacher is going crazy the past few days. I went home

and got my project, then I hopped on again; I knew that all of my stuff was

packed up, but my bike tires were out of air; at that time, I was full of anger

and stamped my feet.

I had to walk home and park it, after that I walked to school. When I was

walking and walking, I was wondering what time it was; since I had my watch on

my wrist, I know what time it is. But, when I just lifted my wrist to my face to

see what time it was, Ah! Time gave me the answer that: There was only two more

minutes until school starts!

I rushed to school as fast as my legs could carry me. When I arrived, the

teacher asked me, “Why are you so late?” I didn’t answer, the teacher gave me

extra homework, but it was just like usual. In the noon my dad didn’t question

me about it, and so I was safe.

It was a very funny story, and it was like that I had a very unlucky habit;

it was actually nothing to worry about since I got my grades up my schoolwork

was always finished in time, and so I had nothing to worry about anymore. It was

a very glad day.

But I just wish that life is better than this.

My mother takes care of me all the time, I am very thankful for her

protection. But sometimes I feel like that I need to grow up and I want to do

the things by my own. My mother worries about me and she will ask me do as she

says. I think it is time to let go of me, I want to fly higher and be a great

kid.

亲爱的朋友：

你好啊！

我是一个四川女孩，今年十岁了。我很开朗，不管见到什么人，我总喜欢上去聊一聊，不仅如此，在与他们聊天时，我还能时不时的爆出几个笑话。

首先让我给你介绍一下我美丽的家乡。说起它，那可是大名鼎鼎天府之国——四川成都，这里有神奇的变脸，有动听的川剧，有人间仙境般的九寨沟、峨眉山……，还有一群友善的人。当你需要帮助时，总有好心人，有时还不止一个出面帮忙。城市里，年轻人风风火火的为事业奔忙，老年人们则聚在一起或拉家常或跳广场舞，每个人都过得满足惬意。

今天我最想给你说的还是在乡村过年的快乐。在乡村，每到春节前人们便开始杀猪，准备宴客。别看杀猪看上去只是体力活，但实际上它里面隐藏着好多有趣的小细节。猪头、内脏这些东西看起来不能食用，但其实也有不亚于猪肉的作用。给你举个例子吧，比如说猪的肠子可以用来灌香肠，我们称它为肠衣，你把它取出来洗净后要仔细检查看有没有破洞，这么仔细干什么？别急，你很快就能知道。检查完没有破洞后就可以取出一些猪肉，把他们切成肥瘦均匀的小块儿和小条。然后把肠衣一头套在漏斗上，把猪肉往肠衣里塞，塞的满满的后，你就把肠衣的末端打上个结，这样就做出了香肠，再挂起来晒几天就可以用来做菜了。把香肠在开水里煮透，在切成片，那吃起来可真是回味无穷。而猪头则先用于祭祀，人们把它面朝堂屋摆放。祭祀过后，上好的猪耳朵还能做成一道美味的凉菜，没错，有名的夫妻肺片就是用猪耳朵等制成的凉菜。曾经的杀猪是人们一年中为数不多的一顿肉食，在物质贫乏的当年，辛辛苦苦养的一头猪，就是为了过年宰杀，那是对自己一年辛劳的犒赏。但现在杀猪则是一种对传统的延续，也是过年时气氛中不可或缺的一部分，那是对大自然馈赠的感激，是对祖先的崇敬之情的传递，也是乡里乡亲们之间增进亲密关系的纽带。

很快宴客的日子到了。每桌能坐十人，起码都有三四桌。这么多人来到院坝里一下子就热闹起来了。人们开心地吃着，凉菜、拉面、蔬菜，还有种类繁多的猪肉，应有尽有。人们开心地喝着，饮料、白酒、红酒随时提供。不时有人起身敬酒，主人则穿梭其间，但不论主、客、大、小和男女，人们的脸上都洋溢着幸福的笑容。这不仅是物质上的犒赏，更是人们精神上盛大的节日。

这就是我家乡的年，满是人情味的年，洋溢着幸福的年，你想来嘛，我在这里等着你。

Dear Tom,

I’m so hapy to learn that you want to learn Chinese in Zunyi Teachers’ College here.There is no doubt that to learn Chinese well is by no means an easy thing, but I have some ideas that may help.

Firstly, it is important to listen to the teacher carefully in class and take notes so that you can go over your lessons later.Secondly, try to practise speaking Chinese as much as possible out of class and write down whatever you hear to accunulate more commonly-used words and idioms.Don’t be afraid of making mistakes.And try to communicate with local people to develop your listening ability.Last but not least, you should organize your time and do lots of exercise.

I think the most important thing is that you should believe in yourself.I’m sure that you will suceed after your hard work.

Yours,

Wang Hua

亲爱的黄俊煌：

你好!

去年寒假，我们在一个补习班认识了，并成为了好朋友。后来我们分开了，今年暑假，我想请你来我家做客。

我所在的地方是福建省南安市，我的家乡还有一个别名，叫做武荣。我现在给你说说我的家乡吧。

这里风景如画，比如武荣公园。武荣公园很长很长，比一般的公园长好几倍。那里的树木郁郁葱葱，有时还可以在树的周围找到一只可爱的小蛐蛐。这里的花格外的香，轻轻地摘下一片花瓣，就可以闻到那阵清香味。那里的亭子，就像一把雨伞，始终守护站在那里。要是下雨了，就可以躲在里面避避雨。这里还有小溪，在没下雨之前，小溪是清澈的，经常有青年人在赛船比赛。

我们这里的美食也格外的鲜美。比如红濑鸡爪，闻一下香气扑鼻，再吃一口，口感Q弹，美味极了。整根吃完，回味无穷。

我的家乡就是这样，你想过来玩吗?

祝你生活愉快!

你的朋友：郑培鑫

亲爱的朋友：

你好!光阴似箭，听说你快要参加中考了。我想你现在学习一定非常紧张吧!你的身体还好吗?可以定要注意呀!我也是一个即将小学毕业的学生了。我的学习也非常紧张。我们学校几乎是一个星期进行一次小考。前几次的小考，我考得一团糟，大部分的题都错在马虎上了，分数很低。为此，妈妈没少唠叨我。为了惩罚，并且纠正我的错误，妈妈给我买了许多练习册让我做。每天我都得坐在妈妈规划的“三八”线内，不得迈出一步。那一天，我又坐在我的“七号监狱”里写着小舟，乘风破浪在题海里穿梭，我趁妈妈不注意，想溜出“牢房”。刚迈出第一步，妈妈就在客厅里说：“姑娘，渴不渴啊?"我手心里渗出了许多的汗，急忙回到“老虎凳”上做好，真是惊心动魄啊!“不渴”我不悦的答道。过了几分钟，又开始了我的行动，我溜，我溜，我再溜!终于迈出了房间。我更加小心了，顺着墙根挪着步子，但最终还是被老妈发现了，并批评了我一顿。从那以后，我就彻底放弃了“作战”计划。

孙悟空跳不出如来佛的手掌心。最后这段冲刺阶段，我还是做个乖孩子吧!希望我能去的好成绩。暑假时，我回到你们那边玩，我很喜欢你们那的美景。我还会预习一下初中的课程。为初中学习打下基础。祝：学习进步，身体健康。

Dear teacher

Hello! First of all, I wish you a happy Spring Festival and a happy

family!

Time like water, five years of primary school is fleeting. In these five

years, it is you who have given us the blue sky, let us fly freely in the ocean

of knowledge, it is you who have given us sunshine and let us open like

flowers.

I still remember that on the first day of entering the school, our first

Chinese teacher and the first head teacher of my primary school, Ruan, led us to

visit the campus. I was most impressed by her bright laughter and warm eyes. Mr.

Zhu, a lovely math teacher, is very vivid in class. There is also mis Wang, our

English teacher. She is the spirit of our class. At Christmas, she came to our

classmates with a bag of presents on her back. At this moment, your smiling

faces flash in front of my eyes.

After entering the fourth grade, we have to change teachers. Looking at

each others eyes, we are sad. At this time, a small pink figure on the

platform, a baby face, is a pair of bright eyes. Fashion clothing, bright colors

suddenly lit up our small eyes. This is the second head teacher of my primary

school --- Mr. Zhao Ying. Mr. Zhao teaches us how to be a human being ten

minutes before class every day. Tell us that it is not important to win or lose

once, but to never give up and stick to it. Our math teacher is as quick as a

gust of wind, speaking fast, marking homework fast. My slow temperament is often

confused by this speed.

Our English teacher Mr. Wangs decomposition learning method makes me no

longer hate English.

Dear teachers, over the past five years, you have been making great efforts

to educate us. You are like a big tree, and we are thriving in your shade. You

have given us the same care as our mother, which makes me feel extremely happy

and makes me interested in learning,

Yes, sometimes you are very strict with us, and you are often strict with

us. You also often teach us lessons and be responsible for us. Even if we have a

little bit of mistakes, you will find out. But I know that you are for us to

learn better and deeper, so that we can have great achievements in the

future.

Teacher, thank you for your serious and responsible education, thank you

for your concern for us, thank you for teaching us a lot of knowledge, thank you

for your selfless dedication to us, a thousand and ten thousand "thank you" can

not express my gratitude to you!

I wish teachers:

Healthy and beautiful forever!

Your student: Zhou Kexin

Every student needs to face all kinds of exams. When score comes out, they

just like sitting in the court, waiting for the judge to announce the result.

Actually, my mother never cares about my score, she tells me that all I need to

do is to improve my ability, and sometimes getting the high score doesn’t mean

the ability. I agree with her.

你们好!

我给你们写信，是为了让你们了解我的祖国——中国。以加深我们两国人们之间的友谊!

我的祖国是一个伟大的国家，她在九百六十万平方公里的上，养活了13亿中华儿女;她有5000多年的文明史，是世界上四大文明古国之一;她还拥有壮丽的山河，灿烂的文化。下面我来为你们简要的介绍一下我们的祖国。

我们的母亲河——黄河。黄河长5500千米，流域面积达75万平方千米。我国古代的文人曾这样赞美它“君不见黄河之水天上来，奔流到海不复回”、“九曲黃河万里沙，浪淘风簸自天涯”。她用甘甜的乳汁哺育了我们，我们在她的怀抱里幸福飞生活!

我们的首都是北京，它是一个国际化的大都市。它有故宫，圆明园，天坛等著名的景点。2008年奥运会就是在这里举办的。

下面我再给你们介绍一下长城，它曾是世界八大奇迹之一，是我国古代劳动人民智慧的结晶。长城始建于春秋时期，距今已有2000多年的历史，总长度达5万千米。贯穿我国东西。它象征中华民族坚不可摧的意志和力量，是我们中华民族的骄傲!

我的祖国优美的地方太多了，简直是数不胜数。如果你想知道的更多，那你就亲自来看看吧。欢迎你们的到来!

祝：

身体健康，学习进步!

提示词语：relax, TV, music, think

The Senior High School Entrance Examination is coming. In order to make a success in the exam I think it’s high time for us to relax a little. Or we’ll be too nervous to work well in the exam.

In order to relax ourselves, we can turn to some of our hobbies, different students have different ways --- Some watch TV, some listen to music… But for me I enjoy taking exercise most. Whenever I feel tired, I always spend an hour (in) walking or jogging in the park. Besides, I also play table tennis with my friends after class. In my opinion, taking exercise can not only rest our brains and eyes but also help build our bodies. I think it’s really helpful to both my health and my study. I hope all of my classmates can join me in getting relaxed. I wish you all every success in the coming examination！

[给外国朋友的一封信英语作文

There were actually, valuable animals in the world; they are not only

pandas or other animals sorts; but lizards too.

A lizard can be a very good animal; it can camouflage, and not to be seen,

some like in Africa can even switch color; some are even in China. Besides

camouflaging and color changing, some even have super strength, some stories in

the future, have many stories; like this one:

A boy once found an egg, and didn’t know what was in it, and so left it in

his room to keep it safe. For a short time he thought that it was a chicken, at

another hand it was a duck… Just as he was about to speak up, he found out that

he was wrong, for the egg hatched, and out came a little green guy; and that was

the first lizard in the world.

The boy found out about this of course, and was not pleased at all. He

thought that it was just what was on the TV show, a toy egg, except it can move.

It was an alive toy, but the boy didn’t notice that it was actually an animal:

When he was just about to send him away to sell and earn money, he found only

his regular toys on the ground, but not the lizard; that was when the lizard

used his camouflage.

And so you see, a lizard: Like the one in the story, can use its camouflage

to save his life. Now let us continue this story:

The boy was astonished, then he turned back, and then turned to where the

lizard stood, then he found him; he thought this was a sort of magic trick, at

last he went to watch TV; because he thought that he could find out something

about that lizard. But he found his feet stuck under a big shelf. Suddenly he

found the lizard come here, and lift up the toy easily; that was when he used

his super strength…

There are still many stories of lizards, but now you have noticed the

basics of lizards. Not let us finish the story:

The boy thought that this lizard was amazing, he tickled him, and then he

lay down and squealed. The boy knew at once that this was no ordinary toy, this

was a real life animal. He was more than astonished, for he didn’t actually know

that this was an amazing animal. When he finished school the next day, he went

home. He found a coloring pencil and to color a picture for fun; but he didn’t

realize that this was a lizard, the lizard switched back immediately to save his

own life.
