A
I am a very quiet girl named Selena. I was not good at making friends. I wanted to find a penfriend who was of my age and would like to share his or her stories with me, but I didn't know how to find this kind of friend.
Then I asked my teacher Miss Li for help. She has many penfriends and loves to write and receive(收到)postcards. She told me that when she was in high school, she joined a poem-writing group and made her first penfriend.
According to Miss Li, to find a penfriend, the first place to look is within my own family. I can write letters to my cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents. I can trust them,and they know me well. The next place is an old people's home, because people there can be very lonely but they have rich(丰富多彩的)experiences. Writing letters with them can not only cheer them up,but also let me learn many things. Also,to make penfriends with a person from other countries,she advised me to join a penfriend community,and visit websites like international-penfriends.com or globalpenfriends.com. But she told me to be careful when talking to people online.
Now,I have two penfriends. One is my cousin and the other is an Italian girl called Angelica.
