六、书面表达。(共一题，计20分)

Some students in our school are free to choose some special courses according to their interests. These courses will help students relax themselves after school. There are many courses for them to choose, such as football, English drama and model making.

If you want to improve your English, English drama may be the first choice. If you are interested in football, take the football course. It’s good for your health. Besides, you can learn more about teamwork. What about model making? You will be amazed by the science world and become interested in it.

I think painting course can be added, because many students like drawing. I hope these courses will be helpful and everyone can enjoy a colourful school life.
