Let’s Read
Knowing that during “Reading Month” in our school English Society will hold an activity named “Let’s Read” on Wechat, I’d like to share something about my own experience and feeling with all the students.
I have been crazy about reading since I was a child. My favorite type of book is always science fictions. Science fiction is based on the latest technology and discovery and telling us a fantasy story that will possibly happen in the future. In the past decades, science fiction has been more and more popular with teenagers. Therefore, it has come into a new style and even a culture. While reading science fictions, I not only feel shocked and amazed about the unknown future made up by the author but also know more knowledge and information about the development of science.
I’m sure every teenager will like science fiction and benefit from it! Looking forward to getting you to take
part in “Let’s Read”!

Dear Caroline,
Learning that you are scheduled to participate in your school’s cultural festival and introduce Chinese culture, and that you are at a loss which theme to choose, I believe traditional festivals are my top recommendation.
For one thing, traditional festivals are an important part of Chinese traditional culture, which plays a significant role in China as well as in the world. For another, traditional festivals, such as the Spring Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, the Double Ninth Festival, and the like, carry an abundance of historical and cultural heritage, since China has a history of more than 5,000 years.
The introduction of Chinese traditional festivals, will definitely bring British students a cultural feast. I wish your presentation a great success!
Yours sincerely,

【答案】
Dear Ross,
Learning that you take a great interest in Chinese movies, I'd like to recommend one of my favorite to you.
Farewell My Concubine is definitely my top preference. Focusing on the grief and joy of two Peking Opera actors in half a century, the film sees the thinking, understanding and inspiration of traditional culture, as well as the existence and nature of human beings. Widely acknowledged as one of the most rated films ever in the film
history, it enjoys great popularity. Even more impressive is the superb acting of the leading actor Leslie Cheung, which has never ever been surpassed up to now.
I'm convinced that his film, which will bring a feast for both your eyes and ears, will not fail you. (124 words)
Yours,
Li Hua
