Dear Michael,
Just a short letter to say “Hi,” and to tell you about a fascinating website I visited recently. It’s called the “StudentZone” and the address is http://www.studentzone.org.cn. It has information about entertainment, universities, news, hobbies, health and sport.
I know you love surfing the Internet, so I think you’d enjoy exploring the site. It’s well-organised and easy to follow. The information on the NBA is fantastic and you can get updates from it. It also provides information for choosing a suitable university, which could be very useful, since we’re taking the entrance examinations next year.
Well, that’s all for now.
Love,
Li Hua
B) One possible version:
I do not believe that books will be replaced by modern media, such as films, radio, TV and the Internet. Firstly, we have more leisure time than we used to, and people are generally living longer, which means there is more time to read. As well as this, there is the strength of the book as a tradition. We are usually not aware of the role of traditions in our modern world, but they can have a very strong pull on us. Added to this, the book is such a practical tool: it doesn’t cost very much, it is usually small enough to carry around, and it can easily be revisited. In conclusion, we will never go without books, because they have served us so well for so long.
