These drugs are safe and have few side effects. Besides, they do little damage to livers and kidneys.

Dear Leslie,
I am very glad that you have written to ask about the symbolic meaning of the dragon.
Long ago, China was a developing agricultural country that badly relied on abundant rainfall or irrigation. Thus, ancient Chinese imagined there must be a powerful God in the sky who was in charge of rainfall and any other forms of water on earth. Later, we Chinese people, called ourselves the descendants of dragons, meaning agriculture fed us and hoping that we were brave, flexible and powerful enough like dragons to control our own fate from generation to generation.
Dragons are considered evil and dangerous in western culture. This suggests westerners and Chinese have different understandings of the world. Don’t you think different experiences can lead to different beliefs? It is always okay if we respect and tolerate cultural differences.
Hoping you can share your ideas on this.
Yours
Li Hu

I’m writing to tell you that the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and I’d like to spend this traditional Chinese festival with my best friends. Would you like to come to my house and celebrate together on lunar May 5th? Some of my friends even plan to take part in the Dragon-boat race, for which they have been preparing carefully. You know, the race is to commemorate the great ancient Chinese poet Qu Yuan. Finally, we will enjoy some delicious Zongzi made by my mother. During this time you are able to experience the excellent traditional cultural of China.

Dear Bob,
I‘m glad to hear that you’re interested in traditional Chinese culture. I‘m writing to tell you something a bout the study group for traditional Chinese culture.
As scheduled, the members of the group have lessons in the school hall every afternoon from Monday to Thursday. Up to now, forty students have joined us, ten of whom are exchange students from different countries. We learntraditional Chinese art such as Beijing Opera and Chinese shadow play under the guidance of professional teachers. The group provides a good opportunity to learn about traditional Chinese culture, especially for exchange students. I believe you‘ll like it the moment you join it.
Looking forward to your early reply.
