Hi Jason,
杰森，你好：
Aunt Linda told me you were visiting China and were staying with a host family. How long have you been there? Have you had any interesting experiences?
琳达阿姨告诉我你正在中国参观游览，住在寄宿家庭里。你去那里多久了？你有什么有趣的经历吗？
Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. Have you done anything special for that? What did you eat? Look forward to your email.
今天是龙舟节。龙舟节你做了什么特别的事情吗？你吃了什么？期待收到你的邮件。

Hey Mandy,
曼迪，你好：
Thanks for your email. I've been here for one week. I've enjoyed my stay very much. The host family is very nice to me. They have a son of my age. He took me to the night market. I tried many kinds of traditional Chinese food there. Some of them looked strange but tasted really good! I also tried to order food myself.
谢谢你的邮件。我到这里一周了。我在这儿玩得非常开心。寄宿家庭对我很好。他们有一个跟我一样大的儿子。他带我去了夜市。我在这里吃了很多种传统的中国食物。其中有些食物看起来很奇怪，但尝起来非常好吃！我还尝试了自己点吃的。
You're right. It was the Dragon Boat Festival yesterday. I tried some zongzi but I haven't made any myself. I've eaten both sweet zongzi and salty zongzi. I like the salty ones better. I also watched the dragon boat races. The drums were loud and the boats were very colourful. It was fun.
你说得对。昨天是龙舟节。我吃了几个粽子，但是我自己没做。我吃了甜粽子和咸粽子。我更喜欢吃咸的。我还看了龙舟赛。鼓声很大，龙舟色彩缤纷。很有趣。
I've bought you some zongzi. You can have a taste when I come back next week. I hope you'll like them.
我给你买了一些粽子。下周我回来的时候你可以尝一尝。希望你会喜欢它们。
