This afternoon I joined in the English Corner at the Wuyi Square. There I met Tom, an American boy. He was tall and cute, with blue eyes and brown hair. He was as old as I. We talked with each other for two hours. He told me that his parents had come to China on business. It happened that he was on holidays. So he came with them.

　　He was glad to see that so many Chinese children like English, and we agreed to keep in touch with each other later on. How happy I am to have made a new friend!

　　今天下午我参加了五一广场的英语角。我认识了汤姆，一个美国男孩。他又高又可爱，有着蓝色的眼睛和棕色的头发。他和我年龄相同，我们彼此交谈了两个小时。他告诉我，他的父母来中国出差。碰巧他正在放假，所以他跟父母一起来了。

　　他很高兴看到这么多中国孩子喜欢英语，我们一致同意以后常与对方保持联系。多高兴我有了一个新朋友！
