a sample version:
 hello, my name is wang mei. i’m 15 years old and i live in beijing. i’m also in tenth grade in senior high school. my favorite subjects are english and chinese. i like my new school very much.
 i’ve received your email, in which you ask some questions about my memories of my first year at school. i’m very pleased to give you my answers.
 my first memory of school was the fairly big building, the entrance of which was typically wide with some important pictures of historical figures. it was the place where i was most affected, since i re ally started to grow up there. it was like my second home, and i went through so many different emotions there.
 my first best friend is one of my classmates called wang lin. he is sincere, kind, and sociable. we have a lot in common and we both have the same kind of humor. we always support each other. we usually study hard and discuss some questions together.
 my favorite activity in first grade was playing ping-pong. the reason why i liked it was that it got me quite excited and made my reflection quick. also, it was quite a creative game because the secret to playing it well was to use variety of strokes.
 my first teacher was miss zhang guoyan. she looked very ordinary except that she was beautiful inside. she was gentle and friendly. the influence she had on me was very powerful. she taught me that i could be very disciplined and hard working but still be very kind.
