Writing Practice
Dear Peter,
I am glad to share with you one of my favorite movie. My favorite movie is Hero, an action film, which is directed by famous director Zhang Yimou and starring Li Lianjie, Zhang Ziyi, Chen Daoming and so on.
The film is set after what happened in the late period of the Warring States and it mainly tells us a story that the King of Qin, the largest of six Chinese states, is trying to conquer an empire. To resist him, three men try to kill the King of Qin. For one thing, the beautiful language in this movie may contribute to your study of Chinese in listening, speaking and writing. For another thing, the cultural elements will equip you with foreign cultural background and, above all, enrich your daily life.
Yours,
Li Hua
