四、写作练习
假如你是李平,是美国中学生Steve的笔友。你收到了他的来信,请你写一封回信,根据中国人的性格特点和风俗习惯告诉他在中国家庭居住时应该注意的事情。词数80左右。
Dear Li Ping,
I'm going to China in April. I will study in Dalian for half a year and I will live with a Chinese family. I have never been to China and I know little about the Chinese way of life. Can you tell me something about it so that I can get on well with them? I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours,
Steve

One possible version:
Dear Steve,
I am glad to hear that you will come to China soon. Chinese people are very friendly. But there are some differences in daily life between China and America. You need to pay attention to them.
First, don't call the mother or the father's name. They will be glad if you call them aunt and uncle. Second, prepare a small gift for the family. But you mustn't bring a clock, because it means bad luck. Third, eat together. Remember, don't start eating before the parents do at meals unless they ask you to do so. Above all, tell them ahead if you can't arrive on time. If you know these well, there will be no problem with your stay in a Chinese family.
Take it easy. I'm sure you will get on well with them and have a good time.
Yours,
Li Ping
