Answer 1

【答案】Dear Tom,

With grateful thanks, I’m writing to extend my sincere appreciation for all your care and concern, which is undoubtedly a great encouragement and support for our ongoing anti-coronavirus epidemic campaign.

To check the quick spread of the deadly virus, home quarantine is the top priority for all Chinese. Every family in our city is allowed to do some shopping outside their neighborhood once every two days. As for us students, thanks to various online communication apps, Tencent Class for instance, we interact with our dear “cyber celebrity” teachers through live-streaming classes, but the prolonged screen time takes a heavy toll on my eyes, so I’ve come up with creative indoor relaxations such as dancing, singing and drawing to keep up my health.

I’m definitely convinced that with joint efforts of the whole nation, China will win the battle and make a quick recovery. Thanks again and I will be exceedingly delighted to repay your kindness by showing you around my city in the coming summer vacation.

Yours,

Li Hua
