（一）My pleasant day

A few days ago, I got up very late; my parents were not at home because of business. I ate the delicious food that my grandma cooked. I could go out with my friends after lunch. We had fun playing table-tennis. At four p.m. We went to the supermarket and bought a lot of things, such as snacks and decorations. And then we had dinner together. In the end, we took a walk and played hide and seek.

This is my pleasant day. What do you think of it?

Dear Alice,

As a teenager. I met the same problem as you. But now I can get on better with my mother. Here are some ideas for you.

Your mother talks much, because she cares about you. Maybe it’s not a good way, but it shows your mother’s love. So I think you should listen to her. If your opinions are different from your mother’s, you can communicate with her, and tell her what you’re thinking about.

If your mother doesn’t take your advice, just keep silent and give her a smile.

I hope what I say her can help you a lot.

Good luck!

Yours,

GaoYupu

Dear Tony,

How is it going? Let me tell you how to learn Chinese. I think you may go to Chinese classes, make Chinese friends and talk with them. You can listen to the radio or watch TV. You’d better read more Chinese stories. You should have a dictionary. It’s very useful. When you have difficulties in learning, you can ask Chinese teachers or friends for help.

Chinese is not very difficult. I believe you can learn it well.

Good luck!

Yours,

GaoYupu
