Dear Chris,
I hope this email finds you well. It’s my honor to invite you to the Inner
Mongolian Food Festival. The festival is a celebration of the unique flavors of my
hometown, featuring well-known lamb dishes, traditional dairy products, and a kind
of wine made of mare milk. The highlight of the festival is the live cultural
performance, which will give you a taste of the local traditions and music.
Join us this Saturday from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm at the Inner Mongolian Cultural
Park. We’ll meet at the school gate at 10:15 am and take a bus there.
Looking forward to sharing the taste of Inner Mongolia with you!
Yours,
Li Hua

W: How was your trip?
M: It was really fun, but I don’t think the family that I visited will invite me back.
W: Why not?
M: Well, I guess I asked some embarrassing questions while I was visiting.
W: What do you mean? What did you ask?
M: I asked the father how much his car cost. And I asked the mother how much money she made
in her job.
W: Oh, yeah. That’s considered to be personal information.
M: I know. I’m not sure why I asked those questions. I guess I was just nervous.
W: Why don’t you send them an email and explain that you didn’t mean to ask inappropriate
questions, but that you were nervous? And thank them for letting you stay with them.
M: That’s a good idea. At least it will make me feel better.

W: When studying English, don’t you think an electronic dictionary is necessary?
M: I can’t agree more. So I bought one last Sunday.
W: Really? It is considerably expensive.
M: Will you buy one, too?
W: Yes, I will. I went to a department store last Saturday. But I didn’t buy one, because it was too
expensive for me.
M: A department store? Everything is expensive there.
W: Well, where should I go and buy one then?
M: I bought mine at the Young Electronic Mall. That place offers low priced goods, and has
various sorts of electronic dictionaries to choose from.
W: Well, then I could make a careful comparison of them and see which one is better. How about
going shopping with me at the Young Electronic Mall?
M: Of course, I will!

W: The United Nations says over 250 million children of primary school age cannot read,
write or do basic maths. 120 million children have spent little or no time on school. Countries are
poorer when children do not go to school. Each year, countries lose up to $130 billion. The UN
says there is a global “learning crisis”. In one- third of countries, 75% of primary school teachers
do not have enough training. The UN says it is important “to focus on quality”.
Most children not going to school are girls. Countries get richer if girls go to school — up to
25% richer in 40 years. Almost two thirds of girls in Arab countries and parts of Africa may never
go to school. In Yemen, just 36% of girls can read and write. Reuters says poorer girls in
developing countries won’t be able to read or write until 2072. The good news is that in Laos,
Rwanda and Vietnam, the number of children not going to school has fallen by 85% in the last five
years.
