Dear Lin Hai,
My name is Tom White. I am from New York, US. I am fourteen years old. I'm a schoolboy. I want to make some friends in China.
There are eleven boys and nine girls in my class. We come from different countries—Japan, the US,the UK and Canada. But at school we all speak English. My parents are from France(法国). They speak French and English, so I can speak English and French well. But I want to learn Chinese. Can you help me? There are many Chinese people in New York and I want to talk with them.
I can play chess well, and I can play many sports. How about you?
Please write to me soon(很快).
Yours,
Tom
