I'm glad to hear from you. You asked me how I spent my last weekend. Now I will tell you about it.
On Saturday morning, I got up early and had breakfast. Then I went to the library to borrow some novels. In the afternoon, Peter and Tony invited me to play baseball with him. We had a great time in the park.
On Sunday morning, I studied for my tests for two hours. In the afternoon, my parents asked me to look after my little brother. I played with him happily.
How did you spend your weekend? Please write and tell me soon.
助你愉快学习!
