What is your all time favorite movie and why do you like it?
That’s a diificult question because there are so many great movies! I don’t think I can name just one but I do have a favorite director, Pedro Almodovar.
I like going to the park the best. It is great to take a walk or go for a picnic when the weather is nice. Sometimes in the summer, they show movies in the park which is great because you can be outside and watch a movie!
Finally,I get your reply. Thank you!!! I ‘ve checked e-mail every day.I think “haiku”
means long time ( in Chinese).
Let me give you a suggestion.You can talk to my teacher,Who’s name is Joe.
