Dear Susan,

    I'm glad to hear from you. I'm happy you're learning Chinese. Now I will give you some {#blank#}1{#/blank#} on learning Chinese.

    As we know, Chinese is one of the most beautiful languages all over the world. Chinese words are more beautiful {#blank#}2{#/blank#} any other languages. Chinese culture is rich, such as poems, handwriting, songs and so on. Chinese has the largest number of speakers in the world. And nowadays more and more foreigners want to learn Chinese. But it's not {#blank#}3{#/blank#} for them to learn it. So when you're learning Chinese; listening, speaking; reading and writing are important.

    First of all, you should pay attention to listening and speaking. You'd better {#blank#}4{#/blank#} your best to speak while you do much listening. Don't be afraid of {#blank#}5{#/blank#} mistakes, even though someone laughs {#blank#}6{#/blank#} you, just speak as much as possible.

    {#blank#}7{#/blank#}; you can choose something short and interesting to read, because maybe you can more or less understand it.

    Third, if you want to {#blank#}8{#/blank#} your writing skills, you should increase the number of your Chinese words. I think making sentences, keeping a {#blank#}9{#/blank#}in Chinese every day. Writing notes or letters are also good ways. Oh, remember: {#blank#}10{#/blank#} Chinese dictionary is very useful for you. It helps a lot.

    Best wishes!

Yours,

Meimei

    If you are tired of making human connections, Lover can be a great choice for you. A Japanese company {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (发明) it in December, 2018. It is a friendly robot which can make {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (孤独) people feel the love.

    The {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (名字) "Lovet" comes from the two words—"love" and "robot". With two bright eyes and a {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (柔软) body, Lover moves around your house and asks you for hugs. It doesn't talk. but chirps (作唧唧声).

    Lover follows you with the help of a  {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (照相机) on its head. It also has abilities to tell who you are by reading your face. It can {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (甚至) remember up to 100 faces.

    The robot cannot help you with housework, hut it will {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (发展) your ability to love. It moves around on three wheels and waves its two little {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (手臂) to show surprise and love, or to ask for a hug. It sleeps when it's hugged and it follows you when it is called. It is {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (害羞的) around strangers. When you open the door, it will hide {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (在……后面) you. If you want to make it laugh, just touch it.

    Lover will do all it can to fill you with joy.

    When people ask me what I want to be when I grow up, my a{#blank#}1{#/blank#} is to be an engineer. That is my dream j{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. And I am sure I can be a good one.

    I am always interested in different kinds of m{#blank#}3{#/blank#} . When I am free, I like to find out how they w{#blank#}4{#/blank#}. Of course, I am good at f{#blank#}5{#/blank#} small things. You can come to me if your radios or watches don't work.

    I won't be a common(普通的) engineer. I hope I can d{#blank#}6{#/blank#} the coolest appliances (家电) in the world, for example, a flexible(可接叠的) TV set. It may be a wonderful d{#blank#}7{#/blank#}, right? But I'll work hard to make it come t{#blank#}8{#/blank#}.

    After I leave high school, I hope I can go to a c{#blank#}9{#/blank#} to study mechanism(机械). My parents think it is a good i{#blank#}10{#/blank#}and they both hope I can enjoy what I choose(选择) to do.
