• Dear Mom and Dad, I'm doing fine here. Yesterday Kitty's teacher Mr Wu invited me to join their school trip to the World Park. I enjoyed myself! It was a fine warm day. The sun was shining in a clear blue sky. The World Park is quite far away. It took us about two hours to get there by bus. There was a lot of traffic on the way and the journey was a little boring. We finally arrived at the park. All of us couldn't wait to get off the bus. Soon the whole world was there in front of us! There are models of more than a hundred places of interest from all over the world. They are small but wonderful. We became very excited when we saw the model Eiffel Tower. It is made of steel and is really tall. The model Golden Gate Bridge looked as great as the one back home. I couldn't believe my eyes. It was an amazing day because we saw the main sights of the world in just one day. The song and dance shows were also wonderful. We learnt a lot about different cultures. You can see some photos of the trip on the Internet. Kitty's classmate Daniel put them on his home page. Go and see for yourselves! Love, Linda

  亲爱的爸爸妈妈： 我在这里挺好的。昨天，基蒂的老师吴老师邀请我加入他们去世界公园的学校旅行。我玩儿得很开心！ 昨天天气很好很暖和。太阳在明亮的蓝色的天空中照耀着。世界公园很远。我们乘公共汽车过去用了两个小时。路上交通很拥堵，旅途有点儿无聊。 终于到了公园， 我们所有人都迫不及待地要下车。很快，整个世界就在我们眼前了！ 这里有一百多个世界各地景点的模型。这些模型很小很绝妙。 当我们看到埃菲尔铁塔模型的时候我们都非常兴奋。这个铁塔是由钢铁制作的，模型真的很高。 金门大桥的模型看起来就像家乡的一样棒。我都不相信我自己的眼睛了。 昨天让我们很惊奇，因为我们只用了一天时间就看了世界上主要的景点。歌舞表演也很精彩。我们了解了很多不同的文化。 你可以在网上看到这次旅行的一些照片。基蒂的同学丹尼尔把照片贴到他的主页上去了。你们自己去看看吧！ 爱你们的 琳达
