A Letter to Vlada

李嬰

Dear Vlada，

I am very glad and excited to receive your letter. I think we both are very busy， it is OK if you are unable to reply very soon.

I hope youve been well recently. It has already been a month since the term started and two weeks later we are going to have our mid-term exam. So you can imagine how busy we are now.

Id like to share my school life with you and I hope you are interested in it. I am now in Grade Seven， and life is completely different from how it was in Grade Six. Besides the basic courses that everyone takes at school， we have to take extra1 courses after school. Usually students take two extra1 courses in a week （of course on different days）. But I take three： IT on Monday （everyone has to take it）， science English on Tuesday （you must pass a test if you want to take this course. And once you take it， theres no heading back， you will have to take it until you graduate）， and English drama on Wednesday （it is a very interesting subject and I love it very much）.

What about there in your school？ What about the classes you take？

Looking forward to getting your letter soon！

Sincerely yours，

Li Ying

致弗拉達的信

親愛的弗拉達：

收到你的來信，我感到非常高興和激動。我想我們都很繁忙，如果你無法立刻回復(fù)也不要緊的。

我希望你最近過得還好。我們已經(jīng)開學(xué)一個月了，再過兩個星期我們就要面臨期中考試了。所以你可以想象我們現(xiàn)在有多忙。

我很樂意跟你分享我的校園生活，也希望你會感興趣。我現(xiàn)在是一名初一的學(xué)生，生活也與六年級時截然不同。除了每個學(xué)生在校必上的基礎(chǔ)課外，我們還要在放學(xué)后上一些額外課程。通常來說，學(xué)生一周要上兩種不同的額外課程（當(dāng)然，不在同一天）。但是我上了三門額外課：周一的信息技術(shù)課（每個人都要學(xué)），周二的科普英語（要上這門課，你得通過一次考試，但是一旦通過了就沒有回頭路可走，直到畢業(yè)你都必須上這門課），還有周三的英語戲劇課（這是一門非常有趣的課，我很喜歡）。

你們的校園生活是怎么樣呢？你上的課程是怎樣的呢？

盼望早日收到你的回信！

誠摯問候！
