In the United States, people like to say “Thank you” when others help them or say something kind to them. People of many other countries do so, too. It is a very good habit.
You should say “Thank you” when someone passes you something on the table, when someone opens the door for you, when someone says you have done your work well, or you have bought a nice thing, or your city is very beautiful. “Thank you” is used not only between friends, but also between parents and children, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives.
“Excuse me” is another short sentence they use. When you hear someone say so behind you, you know that somebody wants to walk past you without touching you. It's not polite to interrupt (打断) others when they are talking. If you want to speak to one of them, say “Excuse me” first, and then begin talking. You should also do so when you want to cough or make any unpleasant noise before others.
Let's all learn to say “Thank you” and “Excuse me”.

In the past, people used to travel to foreign countries because they thought they would be different in many ways - the buildings, the food, the national dresses and so on. At present, however, one large city is similar to another. They all have their Hilton or Sheraton Hotels everywhere. They all have their McDonald's, their KFCs and their Pizza Huts. Office buildings look the same everywhere, and most city centers are full of office buildings. And of course, people are driving the same brands (品牌) of Japanese or European cars.
Then what is the foreign travel for? What do tourists hope to experience in a foreign country that they cannot experience at home? The answer could be that people are very interested in the past. It is a nation's history and culture that are the main attractions. Most people travel overseas to find out what foreign countries' history and cultures used to be like, not what they are like today. Tourists try to learn the history and culture of foreign countries by visiting different kinds of museums.
Every country also has its own beautiful places for tourists to visit. Their own special scenery (风景) would certainly attract tourists from other countries.
Finally, there is perhaps a country's attraction - its people. A country is not just its old buildings, its works of art (艺术品) or beautiful places, it's also the people who live in it. This is why a country such as Thailand attracts millions of people. The tourists come mainly because of the friendliness (友好) of the people there. It is why the Pacific islands are also so popular. The friendly, smiling people make visitors feel welcome.

Dear Tom,
How are you? You said you were interested in the Spring Festival in China. Now let me tell you something about it.
The Spring Festival is the most important traditional festival in China. It usually comes in January or February. Before the festival, people clean their houses, buy new clothes and prepare all kinds of delicious food.
On New Year's Eve, families get together and have a big dinner. They also watch the Spring Festival Gala on TV. It's really a great time for family reunions.
On the first day of the new year, people wear new clothes and visit their relatives and friends. They greet each other and children can get lucky money. During the Spring Festival, there are also many other activities, such as dragon dancing and lion dancing. They are really exciting.
I like the Spring Festival very much. It's full of joy and happiness.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
