Dear John,
I was
excited to hear that you would come to China next month. Now let me tell
you something different you may meet here. To begin with, the weather here is
totally different from that in your place. It hardly ever rains but whenever it
does, it rains heavily. So you’d better bring a raincoat and overcoat.
Another big
difference is food. The Chinese food is quite different from yours. You have to
try to get used to it, and learn how to use chopsticks. I’m sure you can do it.
Finally
please bring me a big American map if possible. Thank you very much.
I am
looking forward to meeting you.
Yours
Zhang Nan

what he said.

the West Mountain.

After the
lunch we went down the mountain. We got home at four, all of us almost gave

Hi, Mr. Li,
Could you please check on the car
to take me to the airport? Please remind the car driver of this. I want to be
sure of this car, because it will be too early in the morning to call a taxi if
the school car doesn’t show up. I am sorry to trouble you again. Here I thank
you again for all you have done for me during my stay in your school. I really
enjoy teaching here, and will never forget the day I spent with my students.
Probably I will come back some day. I leave some English books to your library.
I hope they will be useful to your students.
Yours

Dear sir,
Last year I
bought a refrigerator in your store on Chang An road. We all like the shape and
colour of the refrigerator. But recently I find something is wrong with it. It
begins to make noise when it is turned on. At first it is low but gradually it
becomes louder and louder. To make the matter worse, it even stops working
sometimes. We all feel disappointed with. I am writing to you to ask for help.
Would you please send somebody to repair it. I will be at home this weekend.
Please call me before you come. My telephone number is 6606.5531. Thank you
very much.

Ladies and gentlemen,
Welcome to
our English Corner. This Corner was set up three years ago. Every Sunday
morning, students from
different schools gathered around here. Many college students and some
foreigners often join us, We practice spoken English by talking about everything we are
interested in. We also
exchange our experience in English study. We all have a good time here.
Thousands of people have been here since it was set up.
We think
that we have learned a lot by taking part in activities here. It is a real
supplement to our English class and it is welcomed by students. Their parents
and teachers. They all think it is helpful. If you want to know more about the
corner, you may talk to the students here.

Well, the
first place I suggest that you visit is the Great Wall, the longest wall in the
world, which is said to be one of the wonders in the world. It has a history of
more than twenty centuries. It is amazing to see such a huge wall was made
entirely by hand.
The other place worth visiting is
the Palace Museum, which was built in 1406.
Twenty-four emperors once lived there. from there the ruling emperors issued
orders. You can learn a lot about Chinese history by visiting this Palace.
What a pity
that you can’t stay longer, otherwise, you could visit many other historic
places and beautiful scenes such as Summer
Palace, Bei Hai park..
and so on.

Now let me
say something about Beijing Opera. Beijing Opera is very popular in China. It has a
history of more than 200 years. During the reign of the Qianlong emperor in the
Qing dynasty, Qianlong had a interest in the local opera. In 1790, to celebrate
his eightieth birthday, he summoned opera troupes from different places to
perform for him in Beijing.
Four famous troupes from Anhui
province remained in Beijing
after the celebration. In 1828, A Hubei troupe came to Beijing and often performed together with the
Anhui
troupes. The two types of singing mixed together and gradually a new type came into
being known as Beijing Opera. Now is the performance. I hope you will like it.

Dear Jack,
I was very
glad to receive your letter on the tenth of February. You ask me something
about Lu Xun and his works since you began to study Chinese literature. Now let
me tell you something about him.
Lu Xun was
a well-Known Chinese writer, he was not only a writer, a thinker, and
translator, but also a founder of modern Chinese literature. His novels have
been put into many languages and some of novels have been made into films, such
as The True Story of AH Q and The New Year’s Sacrifice which expose sharply the
old society. The late Chairman Mao spoke highly of him. Some of his novels have
been collected in high school and college textbooks. Since you are learning
Chinese literature, I think reading Lu Xun’s novels will benefit a lot.

My hometown
is an economic-open-zone. It is a town on the sea with a population of three
hundred thousand. Before the liberation it used to be a fishing village. Most
people lived on fishing. There was no industry. And there were only few primary
schools here.
Since the
open-door policy, a lot of foreign businessmen invested here. A lot of
factories have been built. Economics have developed rapidly and big port has
also been built, which is connected with many ports of other ports both in and
out of our country. A new university now has been founded. Three thousand
students have already graduated from it. I am sure in the near future our
hometown will become more modern.

Dear Paul,
How are
you! I think you have come back to school now.
I have had a wonderful winter holiday.
During the holiday, my father and I went to hometown, In the countryside in HeBei Province.
I was astonished to find that great changes had taken place in the village in
recent years. Almost every family in the village had colour TV set, many
families had their houses newly built, or rebuilt, some of them had motorcycles
or cars.
One of the villagers proudly told me that he and some other
villagers were going to a tour and
join travel abroad. How I admire them!
I said to
my father that I would go back to my hometown after I graduated from college.
Father also expressed he would go back as soon as he retired. Both of us were
disappointed when the holiday ended so soon, and we had to leave.
What did
you do in your holiday? Are you busy now?
Here are my
best regards to you and your family

Dear Xiao Lin,
I have had
a busy holiday these winter because I will take part in the entrance
examination this September.
I almost
buried myself in the books every day. I had to go over every required subject
and did a lot of exercises. I worked very hard, more than 10 hours a day. When
I was tired I watched TV for a while and listened to music, but I never went to
the cinema or theater. I had to refuse several invitations from my relatives
and classmates. I only called them to greet them on the eve of the Spring
Festival. How I wish there were no examinations at all, but of course it is
impossible. I will try my best to get better results and go to were no
examinations at all, but of course it is impossible. I will try my best to get
better results and go to Qing
Hua University,
which I have been longing for. How is your vacation? Best wishes to you and
your family!
Yours
