①Dear Terry,
How are you doing? Learning that you are about to pay a visit to a Chinese friend and confused about theChinese customs, I am writing to put forward some advice.
Firstly, I would 1ike to suggest that you arrive 5 to 10 minutes earlier, which is common in Chinese traditionalculture. Secondly, if I were you I would bring some appropriate gifts with me, such as souvenirs from my owncountry. Besides, table manners are also what you should pay attention to. For example, you are not supposed tostick your chopsticks into your food. Instead, laying them on your dish is a smart choice.
If you have any other problems, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
②Notice
Boys and girls,
May I have your attention, please? Recently, an outstanding movie will be shown in our campus. Welcome to join us end enjoy it! Here are some relevant details about it.
To begin with, the name of the movie is Growing together, which is about the development of our beloved school; as a result, it will be not only meaningful but also interesting. Besides, it will be in the library from 2:00 to 4:00 in the afternoon on June 9th . What’s more, everyone of you will be welcome to take part in it, enjoying the movie, having a heated discussion afterwards and giving your own comments.
Hopefully, you would make it to our activity. I have the confidence that you will have a great time.
The Student Union
③Dear Bob,
I’m sorry to say that I cannot go to the bookstore with you on Friday afternoon. I have just found that I have to attend an important class meeting that afternoon. I hope the change will not cause you too much trouble.
Shall we go on Saturday morning? We can set out early so that we’ll have more time to read and select books. If it’s convenient for you, let’s meet at 8:30 outside the school gate. If not, let me know what time suits you best. I should be available any time after school next week.
Yours,
Li Hua
④Planning Is Good ,But Doing Is Better
Planning is good as it decides in detail how we do.However,a plan can bear no fruit without being actually carried out.
My experience in the English speech contest last October is a case in point.A month before the event,I spent hours working out a schedule outlining my goals and practical steps.After that,I set out to read widely for an inspiring topic,wrote a speech,and practiced its delivery in beautiful pronunciation with good public speech skills.I finally came out of the contest as the first prize winner.
I know how I achieved my success. It came from good planning and better doing combined.
