People in English-speaking countries now understand more Chinese words and their spellings in pinyin, according to a recent report by the CFLPA (中国外文局).

The CFLPA studied 50 media platforms(媒体平台) in eight English-speaking countries, including the US, the UK and India. The report listed the top 100 Chinese words that people in these countries use most.

“Shaolin”, a temple in China that is famous for kungfu, was at the top of the list. Other popular words include “yinyang”, “gugong”, “renminbi”, “majiang”, “dama” and so on.

【题目】Dear Emma

Your problem is like a circle. It is because you spend less time with them. The harder you study, the less time you have to spend with friends and the less friendly you look to your classmates. So you should spend more time with them.

Look at your classmates. Are there any people with whom you feel you have a lot in common or trust? You can make friends with them first. The advice is as follows:

First, smile at your classmates. Do this as often as you can, until your classmates become used to your smiles and smile back. Next, talk to your classmates. Do this between classes or during your lunch break. You may find it easier to start by talking to people when they are alone. Perhaps you could ask a classmate about your studies.

They are likely to respond (回应) in a very positive way. People like to feel important and helpful.

There must be someone else in your class who is also quiet. It might be easier to try to talk with him or her. Your problem is mainly about confidence. Smile first, talk next and slowly you will make friends. The most important point is that: Unless you have more confidence, you can’t make as many friends as you want.
