My Favorite Classic Story
My favorite classic story is Yu Gong Moves the Mountains.
Once upon a time, there was an old man named Yu Gong. There were two huge mountains near his house, which made it hard for his family to go out. So Yu Gong decided to move them. Although many people laughed at him, he and his family kept digging day after day. As soon as a god heard about this, he was deeply moved and sent two gods to take the mountains away.
I love this story because Yu Gong’s spirit of never giving up encourages me. It teaches me that nothing is impossible if we keep trying.
【译文】

Dear Lisa,
You said you’re interested in Chinese mythological stories. Let me tell you about the Monkey King from Journey to the West.
The Monkey King, also called Sun Wukong, is a magic monkey with great powers. He can make 72 changes to his shape and size, turning himself into different animals and objects. He has a magic stick that can be big or small. He keeps fighting bad people to protect his master and friends. Unless he hides his tail, he can’t turn into a person.
I admire him because he is brave and never gives up. I hope you’ll like this story too!
Yours,

Once upon a time, there was an emperor who loved beautiful clothes more than anything else.
Two cheats came and said they could make clothes that only smart people could see. The emperor asked them to make the clothes. As soon as the cheats finished, the emperor and his ministers pretended to see them because they didn’t want to seem stupid. The emperor wore the “new clothes” to parade.
