Chapter29　　贺年卡Happy New Year　

每当逢年过节的时候,是不是就会开始想起一些许久没有联络的亲朋好友呢？卡片中可以询问他们现在过得如何，再描述一下自己的近况，方便的话可以约下次碰面的时间。一张卡片的祝福不仅胜过千言万语，也可以让收信者感到开心哦！

写作技巧(Tips)

在特别的日子收到朋友的卡片，真得会高兴一整天呢！因为透过卡片，我们会觉得好像朋友亲自跑来我们身边跟我们打招呼。所以在我们刚开始写卡片的时候，也要先问候对方一下哦。

我们第一段的建议开头句就是：It’s been a long time, hasn’t it? 真是好久不见了。接下来我们可以谈一谈自己的近况，好让朋友们了解你的生活过得如何。

我们第二段的建议开头句就是：Recently² I’ve been so busy because I have to prepare³ for my natural⁴ exam⁵ and science project⁶.。最近我很忙，因为要准备段考和科展。

我们跟收信的人是不是很久没见面了呢？我们可以在信件的最后约定下次见面的时间。大家找个时间聚一聚，聊聊天，增进彼此的感情哦。

我们第三段的建议开头句就是：I really want to visit you some day soon, how about the day before your son’s birthday?。我真的很想赶快找一天拜访你，你儿子生日的前一天可以吗？
