给朋友的一封信A Letter to a Friend

Dear Petty,

I am happy to receive your letter and I am glad to hear that you have good days recently. I hope you can keep your happiness all the time. But I am not happy these days, because I feel great pressures. Two weeks ago, I caught a cold and then had a fever. I could do nothing in those days. Therefore, I asked for leave for four days to stay at home. I came back to school until the midterm examination. I was not surprised that I did not do well in the exam. It makes me unhappy. I worked so hard to prepare for it. My parents comfort me that I would be better if I had not been ill. I hope I can recover soon. And I hope you can take good care of yourself.

sincerely yours,

Kate

亲爱的贝蒂：

我很开心收到你的来信，得知你最近过得不错我很高兴。我希望你可以一直保持快乐。但是我这些天不怎么开心，因为我觉得压力很大。两个星期前，我感冒发烧，什么都不能做。因此，我请了四天假待在家里，期中考试的时候才回学校。我并不奇怪没有考好。这使得我很不开心。我这么努力准备考试。我父母安慰我说如果没生病的话我一定会考得更好的。我希望我能快点恢复，也希望你照顾好自己。
