Hello Sandy,
We have just returned form our holiday. We went with our friends，Edward Smith and his wife Tina, to the Yorkshire Moors. It is a beautiful natural park. There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills，miles of grassland with no people，just sheep and birds.
Edward had just come out of hospital and he could not walk as far as before. However, this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a restaurant for lunch each day before returning to the place we lived in. Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk. Very pleasant!
I took lots of photos from the place we lived in, across the valley (山谷）below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist(迷雾）in the valley. Also, in England, the old steam-powered trains are very popular. I took many photos of the train.
Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter. It is very early. We usually have snow in January. It rained all day, then snowed in the evening .Today we have bright sunshine! Both Jenny and I are well. I don’t know if I told you, in the last e-mail , that Jenny is now working in a hotel. Although she has to work hard, people there are nice, and she is enjoying the work.
Please write to us to tell us your news.
Yours, Victor

C. Because he was weak then. D. Because his wife didn’t go.

A. Spring B. Winter C. Summer D. Autumn

Nowadays more and more people are worrying about their health. But how to keep healthy？Different people may give different answers to this question. In my opinion, it is important to do the following.
First, we should take exercise every day. Plenty of exercise helps us build a strong body and makes us work better. That is why more and more people are becoming active in different kinds of sports and exercises. In morning many people get up early and take exercise. Some practice running while others walk or dance to music. In the afternoon, there are also many people doing sports. Some play basketball or volleyball, others play football or badminton.
Second, have a healthy diet. Over-eat or too little food is very bad for our health. We should not eat too much or too little for every meal. We should eat healthy food, such as all sorts of grain, green vegetable and fruit.
Third, give up bad habits like smoking and drinking. Because they are also bad for people’s health.
All above are my thoughts about keeping healthy. If we can do as them, we will become healthier and stronger.
