An Unforgettable Rainstorm
Last Friday was an unforgettable day. The weather was fine in the morning, but it changed suddenly in the afternoon.
When school was over, dark clouds were covering the sky and the wind was blowing hard. Soon, the heavy rain started to beat against the windows. I was waiting for the bus at the bus stop when the rainstorm came. Some people were running quickly to find shelter, while others were holding their umbrellas tightly in the wind. The traffic was heavy and cars were moving slowly.
After about an hour, the rain stopped and the sun came out again. Although I was wet and cold, I felt lucky that I was safe. This experience taught me that nature is powerful and we should learn to protect ourselves.

Dear Peter,
I’m so happy to hear that you’re coming to China. Different countries have different customs. Here are some tips for you.

You are supposed to use chopsticks instead of a knife and fork. Also, remember not to point at others with your chopsticks. It’s considered rude.
Finally, if you are invited to a friend's home, it is polite to arrive on time. You can bring a small gift, such as flowers or tea. Unless you know them very well, don’t ask about their salary or age.
I hope my advice is helpful. Looking forward to meeting you!
Yours,
