Dear Jane,

Beijing is a busy city with many places of interest. There are many museums, parks and shopping centers. Green trees are on each side of the highway. All these make life in Beijing more comfortable and colorful.

Last month, I invited Uncle Tom to visit Beijing. He is generous and has a good sense of humour. When he arrived here, he couldn’t believe his eyes. He said the buildings became higher. He decided to tell his friends about these as soon as possible.

I hope you can come and enjoy yourself here too.

Yours,

Millie
