　　Dear John，

　　Thank you very much for your letter.I'm glad that you enjoyed your holiday with me.

　　We enjoyed having you and your sister here.We hope that you will both be able to come again next year.Perhaps you'll be able to stay longer next time you come.A week is not really long enough，is it?

　　I hope you are both working hard now that you're in Grade Three.I shall have to work hard next year when I am in Grade Three.Tom and Ann will be in Grade Three the year after next.

　　They went on a picnic yesterday but I didn't go with them because I hurt my foot and I couldn't walk very well.They went to an island and enjoyed themselves there.Do you still remember the island?That's where all five of us spent our holiday.

　　Tom，Ann and I send our best wishes to Betty and you.We hope to see you soon.

　　Yours sincerely

　　Michael
