三、作文

I'd like to say thank you to all the teachers in this reading group. Firstly, I hand in my homework later and later, but it seems that they have to check all homework within that day, which makes they go to bed very late. Besides, many tiny mistakes have been corrected. And it help me a lot in my daily writing work. I am really appreciated what you have taught us in the past days. Hope you have a nice night!
