Letter One

Dear Editor (编辑),

After I finish my homework, I often go online and chat with my friends and play Internet games. But my parents hate to see me playing games on the computer. Maybe they have heard too much news about how QQ and Internet games harm (伤害) children. Once I went to a net bar (网吧) to play games after school. But after that I told my parents that I was playing basketball at school. I said so because I didn’t want to make them unhappy. I feel bad about it. However, I need to rest for a while by playing computer games after studying for a long time. I really want my parents to understand that. Do foreign parents do the same to their children? Please help me.

Yours,  

Li Ping 

 

Letter Two

Dear Li Ping,

I think it’s not strange for parents to keep their children away from anything bad. Foreign parents will do the same as your parents! They may not let their children watch TV for a long time, or like your parents, they don’t want their children to play computer games.

Talk to your parents and be honest (诚实) to them, I think. Tell them what you are doing and why you are doing so to make them understand you. It’s never good to do things behind your parents’ backs. They aren’t fools as you think sometimes! Our parents seem to know what is the best for us. Remember: to be honest is the best way.

Good luck!

Yours,  

Zhang Yu

B

Get ready, China. The world is coming! Every day lots of foreigners come here as business people or tourists. And even more people will come in 2008 for the Beijing Olympics. When they come to China, we should do something to help them enjoy themselves and like China and the Chinese people. But there are some things they may not like:

1. Traffic problems. Cars park on sidewalks (人行道). Bus drivers drive so fast that they make people who are trying to cross the street afraid.

2. Queue jumping. At the post office, or even at McDonald’s, people push to the front of a line instead of waiting.

3. Bumping. Too many people are crowded onto buses and trains. This makes people feel terrible, and it is not safe, either. On a bus in North America, people try to make themselves smaller and they’ll say “Excuse me” or “Sorry” if they knock into someone. In China, people make themselves bigger with no “Sorry” or “Excuse me”.

4. Littering. I notice this everywhere. Some people throw rubbish onto the ground even when there is a rubbish bin (箱) right next to them.

Most Chinese people are just as unhappy with these kinds of things as I am. And, certainly, the government (政府) has known the problems and is trying to do something about them. China is on her way!

C

New rules and behavior standards (行为规范) for middle school students came out in March. Middle school is going to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students won’t only have high marks, they will also be kids who don’t dye (染) their hair, smoke or drink. The following are some of the new rules.

Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else’s work on an exam? Don’t do it again! That’s not something an honest student should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room, don’t tell your parents you have done homework.

Do more at school. Good students love animals and care for other people. April is bird-loving month in our country. Is your school doing anything to celebrate? You should join! That way, you can learn more about animals and how to protect them. When more people work together, it makes it more fun for everyone. Have you ever quarreled with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others, not only yourself.

Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Perhaps you’ll discover earth II someday. Don’t look down on new ideas. Everyone’s ideas are important. You should welcome them, because new ideas make life better for everyone.

Protect yourself. Has someone ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don’t let it happen to you. If you have to go home late, you should let your parents know.

Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet aren’t for kids, so try to look at web pages that are good for you. You can use the web for fun or homework. Can’t you find any good web sites for children? Here are some:
