We're staying with Lingling's uncle in Hunan Provpnce,and I'm having a wonderful time here in Zhangjiajie. It's a magic land of mountains,forests and rivers. It's very large, about square kilometres. It's famous for the strange shape of its tall rocks. Some of them look like humans while others look like wild animals.
我们同玲玲的叔叔正待在湖南省，我在张家界这儿玩得非常开心。这是片有群山、森林与河流的神奇土地。它（面积>很大，约480平方千米。它以奇形怪状的巨石而著名。一些看起来像人，而另一些看起来像野生动物。
Last night we camped by a small lake. During the night,we heard a noise! It woke everybody up. We thought somebody was moving about. Lingling's uncle said it was an animal. We came out without making any noise,and found it was just a hungry monkey looking for food.
昨晚我们在一个小湖边宿营。夜间我们听到一阵声响！每个人都被它吵醒了。我们认为有人正在四处走动。玲玲的叔叔说那是只动物。我们悄悄地走出去，发现那只是一只饥饿的猴子在寻找食物。
This morning,we climbed Mount Tianzi! From the top we hoped to see the lakes and forests. But it was a pity that it was cloudy. We could only see the mountain tops above the clouds. Then we walked down the path along a river,past trees and other plants and back to the camp I pulled a leaf off a plant, but Lingling's uncle said that it was wrong to pull leaves off plants and that we should protect everything here. I was very sorry.
今天上午我们爬了天子山！我们本来希望从山顶眺望湖泊和森林。但遗憾的是天气多云，我们只能看到云雾缭绕的山顶。然后我们顺小路而下，沿着河，穿过树林和其他植被回到了宿营地。我从一株植物上扯下了一片叶子，但玲玲的叔叔说摘植物的叶子是不对的，我们应该保护这里的一切。我感觉很惭愧。
Tomorrow we're going to Dongting Lake, the second-largest lake in China．
明天我们要去洞庭湖——中国第二大淡水湖。
We'll be back home next week! Wish you were here!
我们下周就要回家了！真希望你们也在这里啊！
Love，
爱你们的，
