The summer vacation is over. It’s true that time flies.
In the vacation, the weather was very hot, but I enjoyed myself.
I did my homework in the morning. I got up at 6:30a.m. and took a walk in the garden for half an hour. After breakfast I began reading English and Chinese and did some math exercises. It usually took me three hours or more. I worked quite hard and I made great progress(进步).
I spent the afternoon outside. I went swimming and it was fun. I would not go home until it was about five or six o’clock. Sometimes my friends came to see me and we spent some time listening to music.
In this way I spent my vacation happily. I not only studied hard, but also became a good swimmer. Now I’m in good health and high spirits(精神).

My name is Mary. I have a good friend Lily. In some ways，we look the same, and in some ways ，we look different. We both have big eyes and long black hair. I'm much taller than her. We both like sports, although Lily is more athletic than me. She's more outgoing（外向的）and I'm quieter. I like singing and she likes drawing. However, we both enjoy going to parties.
