Subject: | A visit to China |
Dear Carla, How are you? Welcome to No. 1 Middle School next Friday. In the morning, our teachers and students will give you a warm welcome when you get to our school. Next you will have a Chinese folk music class in the music room. I'm sure you'll like a piece of music named Erquan Yingyue. Then our art teacher will teach you how to make Chinese paper cutting. The most common pictures are flowers, animals and things about Chinese history. They are very beautiful. During the Spring Festival, they are put on windows, doors and walls as symbols of wishes for good luck. In the afternoon, you will watch a movie called Monkey. The Monkey King or Sun Wukong is the main character in the traditional Chinese book Journey to the West, which was written by Wu Cheng'en. I think you will like it. Have you eaten Chinese food before? In the evening, you will enjoy delicious Beijing Duck. I'm sure you'll have a great time in China. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon. Annie |
Service on the 102-km high-speed railway between Shenzhen and Guangzhou started on December 26, 2011. A non-stop trip between the Guangzhou South Station and the Shenzhen North Station takes 35 minutes at full speed.
The train runs at the highest speed of 300 km per hour. All 36 pairs of trains run every day. A one-way first-class ticket costs 100 yuan. A second-class one costs 75 yuan, 5 yuan cheaper than a second-class ticket on the slower line.
A high-speed train has 556 seats, including 16 seats in the VIP rooms and 50 in the first-class carriage (车厢). It offers more advanced facilities (先进的设施). For example, the seats are more comfortable, there are toilets for the disabled (残疾人), and there are power outlets (电源插座) in the first-class carriage.
The high-speed service between Guangzhou and Shenzhen will be a convenient choice for many people. “I won't need to travel to the Guangzhou East Station to take a train to Shenzhen,” said Wang Yi, who lives in Panyu district in Guangzhou.
Many people still prefer the slower trains, because the terminals (终点站) of the high-speed trains are far away from the centres of both cities. “I would not like to take a high-speed train to Shenzhen. I live in the centre of Guangzhou. First I have to get to the Guangzhou South Station. It is a waste of time for me,” said Zhang Lu.
