Dear Donna,

Thanks for your letter, I’m glad to hear you had a happy (an interesting/ enjoyable) Mother’s Day.

I received my second semester report last month I got good grades for Geography, Physics and Math but my English and History results were poor

My teacher told me to improve English and History I think I will have to study harder next school year.

In a few weeks, we are going to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival That is an Autumn moon festival in Vietnam This afternoon I’m going to Ha Long Bay with

my aunt and uncle by bus (and I’m going to stay there with them until after the festival) I’ll send you a postcard from there

Write soon and tell me all your news

Love,

Lan
