Dear Linda,
I have been in England three months now, and it’s my first time to be here. I hope you don't think I've forgotten you. There have been so many places to see and so many things to do that I've not had much time for writing letters.
I shall soon be starting my studies at King's College. So far I've been learning about England and British ways of living. I won't tell you about London. There are plenty of books you can read and plenty of pictures you can look at. I'm sure you'll be more interested to know what I think about the life here.
I find some of the customs (风俗) new and interesting. People here do not shake hands as much as we do in Europe. During the first few weeks I was often surprised because people did not put out their hands when I met them. Men raise their hats to women but not to each other.
Yours
Alice

Dear Dongdong
I have been in Hong Kong for a whole week. I will stay here for another week.
Hong Kong is really a great place to visit. There’s so much to see and do here. And I’ve done so many wonderful things.
I’ve taken the cable car(缆车) to the Peak Galleria (山顶广场). I’ve been to Hong Kong Racing Museum. I’ve known a lot about horse racing. I’ve also visited Ladies’ Street. In the street I bought some beautiful clothes for my mother. Last night I went to a concert. Chinese traditional music has always been my favourite. This morning I went to Ocean Park and watched the dolphins perform. Dolphins are so clever. They can jump from the water to touch a ball, sway (摇摆) their bodies to music, kiss people and even do math. Mr Host is going to take me to an Italian film festival in Hong Kong Cultural Centre tomorrow. I’m so excited because I have never seen an Italian film before. But some people say they’re boring.
That’s all. Best wishes!

Besides the language, I’m trying to learn about the culture as well. British people are quite different from the Chinese. Do you know the people here do not shake hands as much as we do in China?

　　Dear Jamie,

　　I have been in Hong Kong 1 three days now, and I'm having a great time. It's a very exciting place, and very 2 from London. Yesterday my friend 3 me around Hong Kong. It was a very 4 day, but I saw many interesting things. The first place 5 we visited was Hong Kong Park. We took exercise in the morning and saw many old people doing exercises. We also saw many different kinds of birds in the park.

　　After that, we walked to St John's Cathedral(圣约翰大教堂). I think it is 6 very old church in Hong Kong. It was very 7 there. Then we went to Victoria Peak(扯旗山). From the 8 , we could see all over Hong Kong. It was really wonderful.

　　After leaving the Peak, we had lunch in a restaurant, then we caught a bus to a supermarket. I did some 9 (and bought you a present). When we had finished shopping, we sat on the seaside for a watch. On the bus back to the hotel, we both felt tired 10 very happy. We enjoyed ourselves very much.

　　See you soon.
