I am happy to get your letter. I know it is warm and sunny in Canada and you are having fun there. I don’t go to the summer camp with you, but I still have a good time in the village. I live in my uncle and aunt’s house. My cousin Jack takes me to visit the farm, and we feed the pigs, the dogs and the chickens. I think it is really interesting. We go swimming in the river in the afternoon and catch some fish. My aunt cooks the fish for us and it tastes very delicious. Sometimes we have a picnic (野餐) in the mountains. On rainy days, we have to be at home. And I either play the violin or watch TV with my cousin. I like my summer vacation and I wish to go there again.
Yours,
Frank

【推荐2】We all waste(浪费) food, you and me, every day, a lot of it. In China, food wasted in restaurants every year can feed 200 million people. And the food wasted by Chinese people is becoming more. So our country is asking people to stop wasting food.
So what should Chinese people do to stop food waste?
Keep a kitchen diary. All of us should keep a kitchen diary, and we can know how much food we waste at home. The first thing for us to do is to stop throwing away food that we can still eat. We should eat everything we buy and if we cannot, we should buy less.
Buy only what we need. We should ask for smaller portions in stores. We should also check how much food we have before buying more. We shouldn’t bring much food we don’t need home even if large posters ask us to do so.
Develop the habit of packing food(打包). Chinese people are nice and friendly. In restaurants, often too much food is ordered(点餐) and served. So when eating out, we’d better not order too much food if we don’t plan to eat it. Eat up the food on our plates and take home what we cannot finish.
Don’t put it off! Let’s stop food waste today!
