Critical thinking
Do you think tai chi will get more popular among teenagers Why or why not
I think tai chi will get more popular among teenagers because:
tai chi is good for physical and mental health;
tai chi brings about a state of physical and mental balance;
tai chi broadens horizons and enriches knowledge on the ancient Chinese culture.
I think tai chi will not get more popular among teenagers because:
tai chi isn’t to teenagers’ taste because of its slow pace;
tai chi takes much time;
tai chi is not practical for teenagers with heavy study pressure.
Tai chi is the treasure of Chinese culture. We should have the cultural confidence to spread the voice of China and tell the story of China. We are responsible for its inheritance and innovation.
Homework
Write an essay (120 words) to introduce and promote tai chi as a Chinese cultural ambassador.
