The ancient Chinese also flew kites to bring good luck and to make their crops（农作物） grow rich and tall. Sometimes they tied long strings (细绳) and hooks (钩) to their kites. Then they would fly the kites over water, letting the hooks hang down to catch fish.

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I want to join in the summer camp. It’s a good way to improve my English and can help me know more about the American culture.

I often surf on the Internet for something new. I love sports and pop music. I do quite well in English and can talk with foreigners freely. I’m very pround of it.

I hope to stay in a large American family with three or four children. I’m sure we’ll have a great time together.

Thank you!

Yours,

Li Jun
