Protecting Traditional
Chinese Culture
Protecting traditional Chinese culture is of great importance to China"s cultural diversity, economic prosperity, and social development. The government in Guangdong province has made it their mission to protect Chaoju (潮剧), a local form of drama that began in Chaozhou in eastern Guangdong.
In my opinion, specific measures should be taken to protect traditional Chinese culture. To start with, we should make appropriate laws for everyone to follow. Also, we should educate people about the need to protect traditional culture. The more the public knows about it, the more support we can get.
It"s time that we start treasuring our own valuable culture.

Dear Bill,
I"m glad Ireceivedyour letter.Thank you for caring aboutthe weather and my health.Now,I"d like to tell you something about smog.
Since winter last year,there has been a lot ofsmog.It has done great harm to our daily lives.Many traffic accidents happened just because of the heavy smog.Quite a few flights hadto be rescheduled, and many people had to go tothe doctor because of serious diseasescaused by the smog.
People have realized thatsmog causes great harm, andpeople all over the country know thatprotecting the environmentis the most important thing to do.The government suggests that people go to work or schoolonpublic transportation, such as the bus and the underground.Also we should plant more trees.
As to me,I always go to school by bike or on foot, and I neverthrow garbageanywhere.In addition, I will tell everyoneI meet to protect the environment as much as they can.Would you like to tell me some good ideas?I"m looking forward to your reply.

Dear Mrs. Zhang,
I"m writing to express my sincere gratitude to you. You gave me a hand when it was very necessary.
One month ago, with the College Entrance Examination around the corner, I was nervous and in low spirits. I was afraid of letting my parents down because of my average academic performance. When I was at the point of giving up, you asked me to go to your office. Instead of blaming me, you comforted me and discussed with me my reasons for failing the exam. You managed to help me with my studiesand always inspired me. Gradually, I learned how to makemy own adjustments. Thanks to you, Istayed calm duringthe College Entrance Examination.
Mrs. Zhang, I"m extremelygrateful for what you have done for me. I will always have hopebecause of you. I wish you happiness and goodhealth.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua
