dear parents,
now i know clearly that you both are expecting me anxiously. i can say nothing but thanks to you both on this special occasion, because words have failed me when i want to express my thanks to you both for the loving care you have shown for me, especially since i went to senior three. these days i have been studying hard and have made some progress. and everything has got along well with my college entrance examination. i have performed my ability in this exam. i hope you both can set your mind at rest.
after this exam, i intend to help you do some housework which i have seldom done before. and i also mean to learn to cook in order to prepare a dinner for you both in person.
my dear parents, everything is going on well with me and do have a rest!
Sincerely,
John Granby
