Dear Jianhua,

I’m very glad to have received a letter you sent me two                    1．       

weeks ago. I had been thinking about the question you asked                  2．       

me. In my opinion, you should go back here after you finish                    3．       

your studies in abroad. For one reason, what you are studying                 4．       

is badly needed nowadays in China. That will be quite easy                      5．       

for you to find a good job. As a matte of fact. I know a little                    6．       

big companies in our city hopes to hire people like you. For                    7．       

another reasons, I think it will be much more convenient for                    8．       

you to look your parents as they are getting old, so I think it’s                 9．       

a good idea for you to return. So what are you waiting for?                     10．       

Best wishes.

Minghua
