Question

Dear Wang Ming,
I received your email yesterday. You asked me what I was doing recently. To tell you the truth, I am learning Chinese by myself. I want to go to Beijing this summer, but I don’t know how to learn it well. Could you give me some advice?
I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
David

Answer 1

Dear David,
I’m glad to know that you’ll come to Beijing.
As we all know, Chinese is a very useful language and many people in the world are learning it now. If you want to learn it well, you have to remember as many Chinese words as possible. It is also important for you to do some reading and writing. I think you can watch TV and listen to the radio to practice your listening. You can learn Chinese not only from books but also from people around you. Do your best to talk with people in Chinese. If you have any questions, please write to me.
Looking forward to seeing you in Beijing.
Yours,
Wang Ming
