八、【参考范文】
Dear Jane,
How’s it going? I hope everything goes well with you!
I finished my final exams last week, and got my report card today. The result is
much better than what I thought it was. My Spanish teacher said I did well in writing.
My PE teacher said I was good at sports and my math teacher said I was hard-
working. But my science failed. My science teacher said I must study harder if I want
to pass the exam next time. My history teacher said I was lazy. But I really worked
hard on it. Your history is very good, maybe you can help me with my history
lessons.
I wish you have a good holiday!
Yours,
Nick
