ure to bring your tennis things, too, because are coming and I’m sure you’ll want to get out on the courts with them.
There’s a very good train ; I’ve marked it in red on the timetable. It gets you here about which is just in time for dinner. You can get a late train back , or there’s an early express that usually takes on .

如果您没有什么活动安排，我希望能同我们一起在共度周末，那里已经鲜花遍地，现正在最美丽的时节。
我想，今年我们能让钓鱼钓得更快活。鱼儿比过去任何时候都爱上钓鱼。请把钓鱼的服装带来，也别忘记带上打网球的用具，因为我们还邀约了夫妇，我想，你们是乐意同他们打网球的。
有一班舒适的火车，我已经在火车时刻表上做了红色记号，火车大约在把你们送到这里，正是吃晚饭时间。你们可以乘晚车回来。或者，在也有一班快车，就是常坐的那一班车。
我们希望没有什么事情会阻碍你们，我们在等待着你们光临……我知道好盼望再次见到你们。准备乘哪一班火车，请一定告诉我们，好让到车站迎接你们。
