Dear Simon
How are you doing in Hong Kong? Good, I hope!
Recently I joined a rope climbing club in my school and it becomes my favourite sport.
It ‘s a simple sport. All you need is a rope course and some protective device, e.g. a good helmet. The competitor who can climb up the rope the fastest is the winner. Of course you have to be careful not to get hurt.
I like this sport because it’s really exciting. It makes me strong and healthy. It also helps me to make more friends. I play this sport with my friends once a week.
What’s your favourite sport? How is it played? Why do you like it? Please write back soon. I can’t wait to hear from you.
Bye for now
All the best,
Chris
