Last summer vacation, I volunteered to work at a vet’s（兽医诊所）. There I saw a lot of dogs. Minnie was the funniest-looking dog I’d ever seen. Short thin curly hair covered her sausage-shaped（香肠形）body. Her eyes always seemed surprised. And her tail looked like a rat’s tail.
She was brought to the vet because her owners didn’t want her any more. I thought Minnie had a sweet personality, though.“No one should judge her by her looks,”I thought. Finally, I advertised Minnie in the local paper.“Funny-looking dog, well-behaved, needs a loving family.”
When a boy called, I warned him that Minnie was strange-looking. The boy on the phone told me that his grandfather’s sixteen-year-old dog had just died. They wanted Minnie no matter what. I gave Minnie a good bath. Then we waited for them to arrive. At last, an old car pulled up in front of the vet’s. Two kids raced to the door. They picked Minnie up and rushed her out to their grandfather, who was waiting in the car. I hurried behind them to see his reaction to Minnie. Inside the car, the grandfather held Minnie in his arms and stroked her soft hair. She licked（舔）his face. Her tail wagged（摇摆）around so quickly that it looked like it might fly off her body.
“She’s perfect!”the old man said happily.
I was thankful that Minnie had found a good home.

Dear Peter,
Did you have a good time last summer?I did. I took a trip to Seattle with my brotherHenry. It took us two and a half hours to drive to Seattle from my home. We stayed in a big hotel near the beautiful beach. On the first day, we just stayed in the hotel and watched TV. On the second day, we wen tto a supermarket and bought our favorite things. There were lots of people there. I bought a T-shirt and a sweater. They were both white because I looked very cool in white. Henry bought a green backpack, and he liked green best. On the third day, we went to a zoo and saw many cute animals. I liked the pandas and koalas best. And I took many photos of them.
What about your summer vacation? Was it fun? Please write to me and tell me about it.
Yours, Jack
