Dear Sir or Madam.

One of the teachers at my school in New York tells me that your school has summer course. I am planning to go to Beijing next summer and would like to take a short one-month course.

I am 18 years old and have been studying Chinese for six years. I was born in the USA and have never been to China before. I am going to study Chinese at the university. I think the course will help me improve my Chinese.

Could you send me a catalogue(目录) and application form (申请表)? I would also like information about Beijing and other places nearby. I hope to do some travelling when the course is over.

Thank you! I am looking forward to your reply

Very truly yours,

Jim Green

On April 1 st, China announced that it would build the Xiongan New Area in Hebei Province. This will be of the same importance as the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone and the Pudong New Area.

The area will cover three counties(县) that sit at the center of the triangular(三角形的) area formed by Bejing, Tianjin and Shijiazhuang.

The Xiongan New Area has great potential(潜力) for growth. It has a large space to develop and will expand(扩大) to cover 2,000 square kilometers. The transportation of the area is convenient, with only an hour’s drive to Beijing and Tianjin.

The new area also has a wonderful natural environment. It is home to Baiyangdian, one of the largest freshwater wetlands in North China. With more than 140 lakes, the wetland is known as the “pearl(珍珠)”of the North China Plain.

Onece built, the area will lower the heavy burden(负担) on Beijing. For example, many companies, universities and scientific research centers will move from Beijing to the area.

International experts and media also think highly of this new area, saying that it will set an example to developing countries.

The Sunday Mail magazine interviewed some parents about whether children should do chores at home. Different people have different opinions.

Ms Miller thinks that kids these days already have enough stress from school. They do not have time to study and do housework, too. Housework is a waste of their time. ①They should spend time on schoolwork in order to get good grades and enter a good university. When kids get older, they will have to do housework. So there is no need for them to do it now. She thinks that doing chores is not so difficult.

However, Mr. Smith disagrees with her. He thinks it is important for children to learn how to do chores and help their parents with housework. It’s not enough to just get good grades at school. ②现在的孩子太依赖他们的父母。 Doing chores helps to develop children’s independence and teaches them how to look after themselves. ③ It also helps them to understand the idea of fairness. Everyone should do their part in keeping the house clean and tidy. ④The earlier kids learn to be independent, the better it is for their future.
