Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirtyminutes to write a letter.

Suppose you are Zhang Ying. Writea letter to Xiao Wang, a schoolmate of yours who is going to visit youduring the week-long holiday. You should write at least 120 words according tothe suggestions given below in Chinese.

 1.表示欢迎
        2.提出过度假安排的建议
        3.提醒应注意的事项
          

DearXiao Wang,

Isit really true? Are you coming to visit me for the upcoming holiday? We havenot seen each other for such a long time and I have missed you. 

Doyou have any plans for what you would like to do? Since you are not familiarwith where I live, I can make some recommendations. There are many scenic spotsin the suburbs. When you first get here, we could plan a camping trip with someof my classmates. We can also visit the museums which are very interesting.And, we can go shopping! The shopping malls downtown are large and many havediscount promotions during the holidays.

Whatdo you think of my recommendations? I should tell you that the weather here ismuch colder so you should bring a warm overcoat. Please also take care of yourbelonging during your travel here as there has been much theft reported.

I  am looking forward to your visit. 

Mybest wishes.
