Lesson 7

Dear Fatty,

Thank you for your seventh message. My comments and corrections follow.

Sincerely,

Dear Professor Susan Garreis,

 

  Thank you for your comments and corrections.

  My favorite summer food is watermelon. Except in the summer, Zhengzhou prohibits t0ractors from driving into the city. But in the summer, farmers can drive their tractors to Zhengzhou to sell watermelon. My family all like to eat it,       Generally speaking, we buy watermelon by the sack and eat them in only a few days.

  My father and mother go for a walk every day for about one hour. Do you go walking or jogging for health?

 >I should walk that much every day, but I don't. It is a very good thing that your mother and father walk that much. They will live long and healthy lives.

>I garden for exercise. In this heat, however, I cannot go outside for long.

 

>What do you do for exercise?

 

Our weather is very hot and humid now. That is typical. We also have sudden intense thunderstorms. That is unusual.

I long for cooler weather.

 

What is the weather in Japan now?

 

A friend has a house in Bethany Beach. She took a few of us to see two gardens.

The grounds were beautiful!

 

The other garden was a private home. The couple have three acres. They planted many trees and flowers. The lilies were especially beautiful.

Some of the lilies are taller than I am! (I am five feet tall - about one and a half meters.)

Here are some  pictures of lilies: http://www.edenbrothers.com/store/perennials-lilies.html?gclid=CKC93MG2jbgCFc-f4AodD0kA6A.

 

When you can relax, where do you like to go?

I like the beach in the winter and the mountains anytime.
