Dear Wang Mei,

Thank you for your letter.

You said "Happy Spring Festival!" So it's     1     in China now! Here in    2       it is nearly autumn. It is beginning to get colder. But it     3       gets really cold here.

You asked me     4      is the best time to go to Australia? Australians will tell you "    5     time is a good time!" But many people think the      6      time is in summer. It gets very hot at that time of year. Some people say it       7     too hot. But I like summer best.

In summer I go        8      in the warm sea nearly everyday. It's great.

Swimming is very popular in Australia. The sea is very blue and beautiful. Some people swim   9       the sea all the year round. But I don't swim in July and August. I think the sea is too     10       .

All the best.

Robert
