牛津版（深圳·广州）2018-2019学年初中英语七年级下学期期末模拟复习卷三

Cloudy    12 July

    Today is an unlucky day for me. In the morning, my brother and I planned to visit our grandparents. They live in a small village, far away from us. I seldom visit them and I decided to visit them today. Before going out, one classmate of my brother's called and invited him to see a film. My brother is interested in films. So he decided to see the film with his classmate. I still wanted to visit my grandparents, so I took a taxi and asked the driver to take me there. Unluckily the driver lost his way. He drove the car around the village for a long time and then left me near a bus station. At that time I didn't find my wallet and I couldn't pay him. It was terrible. The driver asked me to call my grandparents, but nobody answered the phone. I had to go back home to get some money. What a pity! I paid a lot of money, but I couldn't visit my grandparents. Now I hope they can forgive (原谅) me.

Dear Alice,

    Thank you for your last letter. I enjoyed reading it very much. Thank you for telling me about your best friend.  In this letter I will tell you about mine. Her name is Trudy. Trudy has long, dark brown hair and green eyes. She is the same age as me, but a little taller. She is always happy.

    We sit together in class, and help each other with our schoolwork. We always go home together after school and play computer games for an hour. Trudy thinks very quickly(很快地) and usually wins(赢).

    Trudy is learning to play the piano. I am learning to play the  flute(笛子). We practise(练习) together every day. Sometimes Trudy stays in my house for a night, or I stay in her house for a night. We always have a good time. Do you ever stay in your best friend's house for a night?

    Write soon.

Love,

Lily
