As a result, you can rely on me.

Dear Editor,
I’ve read your discussion on how to behave properly while traveling. Every year, a great many holiday makers go out for sightseeing and relaxation. While they are enjoying themselves, some of them behave rudely, which causes a big concern. How to be a civilized tourist has become a heated topic.
In my opinion, it is necessary to watch our manners. First, we must respect and follow local customs. Besides, we’d better not talk loudly in public places to avoid disturbance to others. Also, be aware that queue jumping is unacceptable in many countries.
More importantly, if we travel abroad, we should bear in mind that we are representing our country, so we need to be cautious about how we act. Only in this way can we enjoy our trips and have beautiful memories as well.
Yours truly

Dear Jim,
I’m writing to tell you more about the new form of sharing bike mobike mentioned in your latest letter.
It’s very convenient to use if you have a smart phone. What you do is find a nearest mobike through the APP, scan the QR code on the bike, and enjoy your trip. Compared to other forms of sharing bike, the greatest advantage of mobike is that you can easily find one and never worry about where to park it. It is becoming a new trend as a means of transportation, which relieves the traffic pressure and does good to the environment as well.
Hope to ride a mobike with you in China.
Yours,

· 成语故事 ·
假如你是李华,你的美国笔友Mike来信向你询问汉语成语“揠苗助长”的含义。请你根据下面的汉语提示用英语给Mike写封回信,向其解释该成语的由来和意义。

3.开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。
Dear Mike,
It’s great to hear from you. I feel proud of knowing your interest in Chinese literature. The set phrase you asked me means Trying to help seedlings grow by pulling them up. There is a story behind it.
A man in the Song State was anxious about the slow growth of his seedlings. One day, he went to the field and pulled them upward one by one. He came back tired and said to his family, “I’m exhausted today, for I have helped the seedlings grow much taller all at once.” Hearing this, his son ran to look at the seedlings. To his horror, all of them had dried up and died.
This set phrase means that growing against the law of development in things and being overanxious for quick results will make things worse.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours,
Li Hua

In China, these knots stand for friendship, love and good luck. People can either give them as gifts to friends or hang them in their houses.
They are only 12.99US each.If anyone wants to know more about the knots,let them write to me.Also,do let me know if you need further information.Thank you!

Here are a few suggestions. First, it is important to take a Chinese course, as you'll be able to learn from the teacher and practice with your fellow students. Then, it also helps to watch TV and read books, newspapers and magazines in Chinese whenever possible. Besides, it should be a good idea to learn and sing Chinese songs, because by doing so you'll learn and remember Chinese words more easily. You can also make more Chinese friends. They will tell you a lot about China and help you learn Chinese.
Try and write to me in Chinese next time.
Best wishes.

Dear Tom,
I’m glad to hear from you. I feel proud knowing you are interested in Tang poems.
As for my favorite poet, it must be Li Bai. Living in a golden age of Chinese poetry, Li Bai is best known for his rich imagination and striking imagery in his poety, as well as for his great love for liquor. Many of his poems will remain today. Li Bai is regarded as the greatest romantic poet of the Tang Dynasty.
What I appreciate most are his landscape poems, which are clear and natural in words with profound messages. They convey his strong love for nature, friends and the people.
Best wishes.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Dear David :
How's everything going?As your birthday is drawing near,I've prepared a gift for you.It's a Chinese painting "bamboo",which I specially drew for you.
In Chinese culture, bamboo carries many best wishes and excellent qualities. On one hand, it stands straight and stays green all year round, so it’s always full of life. I wish you as strong and energetic as a bamboo. On the other hand, it’s hard outside but hollow inside. If compared to a bamboo, one is usually considered to be strong-willed and modest. All in all, we use bamboo to represent a noble and gentle person.
I hope you like the gift and wish you a happy birthday.
Yours,

Hi! Tom,
I’m glad to hear that you are interested in traditional Chinese festivals.
My favorite festival is the Mid-Autumn Festival. It usually comes in September or October. On that day, our family members usually get together and have a nice meal. After that, I always admire the moon and share mooncakes with my families.
I love this festival because I like eating mooncakes. They are in the shape of a full moon. They carry people’s wishes to the families they love and miss.
In short, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a day of pleasure and happiness. I hope that my letter will help you know more about Chinese festivals.
