25、Dear Kate,

It is very exciting that you are coming to our school so soon. Before you arrive, let me introduce to you what our school life is like.

Our school is a good place where we can prepare ourselves well for the future. We have many teachers who are always ready to offer help. Though we pay a lot of attention to how well we do in lessons, getting high scores (分数) is not the only r【1】 to study. The teachers encourage us to try out new ideas and ask questions in class. With their help we have d【2】 all kinds of interests in both Arts and Science. Students can choose to join any school clubs they are interested in. We can choose the s【3】 that we want to study. Last term I chose American Literature, because I wanted to learn about famous American writers. This term I chose m【4】 classes because my father bought me a piano as a birthday present.

By the way, I was elected monitor of my class. Sometimes it can be tiring to be a monitor, because I have to do a lot of work and a【5】 many meetings. However, being a monitor has taught me a lot, such as caring for others and taking responsibilities and so on. When my class was given the title of “Model Class”, I was p【6】 than ever before. So being a monitor an important part in my school life. I’m very pleased with my work.

I love my school and hope that you will have a unforgettable e【7】 here too. I am looking forward to seeing you soon.

Yours,

Li Ping
