Dear Linda，
I’m very glad that you’ll come to China to watch the Olympic Games. I know it isn’t easy to learn a foreign language， but I have some ideas that may help. Firstly， it’s very important to listen to the teacher carefully in class and make some notes so that you can go over your lessons later. Secondly， try to catch every chance to practice speaking， both in and out of class. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Then try to listen and read more in Chinese. What’s more， you’d better plan your time well and study it regularly every day.
Above all， you should be confident in yourself（有自信） and don’t give up（放弃）whenever you meet with difficulty（遇到困难）。 I’m sure you will succeed through（通过…而成功） your hard work.
Best wishes and looking forward to meeting you in China.
Yours，
Li Hua
As a middle schoolstudent, my study burden is heavier than before. Therefore, I must make a goodplan for my study to make the effort effective and set sometime aside forplaying. Firstly, I will make a big plan for this term and set a goal for it. Iwant to be the top three of my class in the final exam, so that I must workhard for it.
In addition, I will make plans for several short periods, such as monthlyplan and weekly plan. By doing so, I can clearly know what my major task ofdifferent. Finally, daily plan is necessary, too. Write down my tasks foreveryday and finish them strictly. Remember not put tasks until tomorrow. With thesedifferent plans, I can arrange my time reasonably and get sometime to play.

Paper Cutting
Paper cutting is the most popular traditional skills in china. People frist start making paper cutting in the 6th century. They used scissors and paper to make the paper cutting. Animals,plants and chinese characters for health or good luck often are used in paper cutting. When the Spring Festival and wedding coming, people will stick the paper cuts to the windows.But todays, few young people are interested in paper cutting. We should protect the paper cutting.
