Last year I went on holiday to southern Spain with my best friends, Jenny and Alice.
The Spanish people are very warm to visitors. Although I suggest you should know a few simple words in Spanish to communicate with local people, the Spanish people are willing (乐意的) to speak in English. When we arrived, we didn’t know where to find a hotel. I came to an old man and asked him for help politely. With his help, we got to a cheap but wonderful hotel, which even had a swimming pool. There we really enjoyed ourselves.
This year, Jenny is going to the UK with her parents, so it will be just Alice and me. Alice wants us to go on an adventure (冒险) holiday in Africa. That means we have to go walking in the desert and sleep out in the open. She says it will be better than having a lazy holiday, because we will learn about the world around us and see some wild animals. I’m not sure whether I want to go to Africa. For me, a holiday means relaxing on a beach not walking all the way. Alice says that we will see elephants and have some amazing experiences. I think she’s bored with lying in the sun all day. I have to make up my mind by next Monday so that she can buy plane tickets. It will cost 1,400 each to go to Africa but for two weeks in France, less than half that money will be enough.

Xiong has been blowing sugar figurines (吹糖人) for twenty years. Blowing sugar figurines is a Chinese traditional folk art with a history of over 600 years.

People, especially little kids, are interested in his skills. To make young people closer to the art, he also stops by universities. Many university students are interested in the art. Among them, Simon, a foreign student, also wanted to make one sugar figurine by himself. However, he couldn’t get the wanted shape though he tried several times. “It looks easy, but actually it’s very difficult to have the skill.” he said. Thanks to Xiong’s help, Simon finally saw a horse coming out slowly. “I can’t believe I can do this.” he said happily.

A little pine tree (松树) disliked its needles (松针). It said, “I don’t like needles. I want better leaves. I want gold leaves.”
Night came and the little tree went to sleep. A fairy (仙女) came by and gave it gold leaves. When the little tree woke up, it had leaves of gold. It said, “Oh, I am so pretty! No other tree has gold leaves.” A man came by. He took all the gold leaves away. The poor little tree cried, “I don’t want gold leaves any more. I want to have glass leaves.”
When the little tree went to sleep, the fairy came again and put the glass leaves on it. “How pretty they look in the sunshine! No other tree is so bright,” the little tree said happily. Then a wind came up. The glass leaves all fell and got broken. Again the little tree had no leaves. It was very sad, and said, “I don’t want gold leaves or glass leaves any more. I want green and flat (平的) leaves like others.”
And the little tree went to sleep. When it woke up, it had green and flat leaves. A sheep came by. He was so hungry that he ate all the leaves. Then the little tree said “I don’t like green and flat leaves, nor glass leaves, nor gold leaves now. I like my needles best.”

Dear Tim,
I am glad to hear that you are invited to a Chinese friend’s house. Now, I am writing to tell you something about Chinese traditional customs.
First, it is proper for you to arrive early so that you can help the family prepare the dinner. Then you can greet each other by shaking hands. Besides, you’d better bring some meaningful gifts, such as a book or a Chinese knot. Finally, avoid making noises while chewing food, or you will be considered impolite. Don’t talk when eating. And you shouldn’t stick your chopsticks into the bowl.
I believe these suggestions will be of some help to you. Meanwhile, hope you have a good time.
Yours,
Li Hua
