Dear Editor, Hong Kong

　　I've always been interesting in your

magazine. I find them very helpful in

increasing my knowledge of English.

　　However, as there was a big gap(差距)

between beginners and advanced student, I

suggest, you put out a special edition(版)for

beginners, something as your“Beginners'

Corner”, which middle school children enjoy

very much. The public library in Hong Kong

have childrens' reading rooms where every

type of books are prepared for children of

different levels.

　　I hope my suggestion is practical and

much people will like it
