Before arriving in China, I had read lots of books about China. Therefore, when I arrived, I was excited to be living in this huge historically and culturally rich country. It was so greatly different from the UK. The food, the landmarks, the big cities and everyday life一I couldn't wait to explore.

However, learning Chinese hadn't even entered my mind, not because I was lazy, but because I had no confidence to learn the most complex language in the world. Besides this, once I moved to China, I lived in Shanghai. It is an international city, with many people speaking English as a second language. So I thought English would besufficient.

But after a year in China I found many expats() spoke Chinese. Perhaps it was achievable after all? I felt uncomfortable because so many Chinese people could speak English while I couldn't even speak the most basic Chinese. To face the challenge, I decided to begin my language journey and my only regret is that I didn't start earlier.

In the two years since starting to learn I have made great progress. Now, I am able to talk in Chinese on many topics(话题). Learning to speak Chinese isn't as difficult as I once expected. When I speak to Chinese people in Chinese, they almost always understand me. The most challenging thing is listening since Chinese people talk at such a speed. I can't always understand what's been said, but my weekly online language exchanges help with this. Learning Chinese has taken a lot of hard work. But there is still a long way to go before I reach my goal of fluency(流利).

 Learning Chinese not only helps me in day-to-day life, but deepens(加深) my cultural understanding of such a great country. So, to all my non-Chinese friends I say this, don't be afraid, face the challenge and be confident.

Let me tell you why I did volunteering. The main reason was to help create a better future for people, no matter who or where they are. In this big world, so many people need help. . They felt scared and lonely facing all the difficulties since their parents also had other kids to care for. So, why not try to help as many people as possible? That was my thought.

 . And volunteering at the hospital showed me a side of the world I did not know about before. I met people from all over the world, each with their own ideas, experiences and dreams. We got to share so much with each other.

阅读下面的语篇材料,根据所读内容,完成下列各题。

John Smith is an exchange student from New York. Here is a letter to his friend in his hometown.

Dear David,

How time flies! It's been 3 months since I came to China. I'm having fun on my student exchange program here. I am used to life here and have known a lot about traditional Chinese culture. I will share some with you.

In China, there are many different kinds of traditional art forms, such as paper cutting. Chinese clay art, kite making and so on. Among them, the kite interests me most. The first ancient Chinese kite appeared more than 2,000 years ago. Then flying kites spread to Japan, Korea and Malaysia during the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. Kites are regarded as the earliest craft(飞行器). They played an important role in the process of inventing the plane.

Tea culture is important in China. Tea was discovered as a kind of drink by accident about 5.000 years ago. It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. It didn't appear in England until around 1,660. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. Now tea has become one of the most popular drinks around the world.

Lastly, I'd like to tell you something about the Mid-Autumn Festival Chinese people have been celebrating it and enjoying moon cakes for centuries.

If you'd like to know more about traditional Chinese culture, I will talk about it in the next letter.

Best wishes!

Yours,

John
