“Remember your parents' birthdays and express your best wishes to them; say”hello“to your parents when you see them returning home; and tell your parents where you go when you leave home.”
The programme has been successful, and has won praises from parents and other sides of the society. People say this is what we should have done earlier!

How to Protect Your Eyesight
It is important for everyone to keep good eyesight. But do you know how to protect your eyesight?
First, don't keep your eyes working for a long time. You'd better have a rest by looking in the long distance after you have studied an hour or so.
Second, pay attention to the following: Don't read in the sun or in a poor light; don't read in bed or in a moving bus. And when you read you should keep the book away from your eyes for about a foot.
And third, do eye-exercises every day. It will also help you keep good eyesight.
If you obey the rules above, I think, you may prevent your eyesight from becoming short-sighted.

Dear Anna,
How glad I am to hear from you and to know that you are getting on well with your Chinese study at Beijing University.
To learn a foreign language, one should not only study the language itself, but also study the everyday life of the native speakers of the language.You've been in China for only half a year. I don't think you have known much about our life at home. Why not come to my place and spend the Spring Festival with my family?
My parents and I are looking forward to seeing you. We'll surely meet you at the station.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hong

Time is important to everyone. Lost time will never come back. We must keep this in mind in our daily life and make the best use of our time. Only in this way can we succeed in life.
How can we make full use of our time? First of all, we'd better make a plan. We should arrange our study, work and rest. We can know what we should do next so that we can save as much time as possible when we study or work, we should put our hearts into it. We should spend every minute on it.After a period of time's study and work we can take a good rest.
I think that all of us should emphasize using our time effectively.

Fine
I went out to see a film after supper. On my way to the cinema, I met an Englishman named John, who had lost his way. I gave up the chance to see the film and took him to his hotel. While going there, I told him the great changes that had taken place here in the past few years and John told me something about his country.
Though I had missed the film, I felt very happy, for I had not only helped John get out of trouble, but also practised my spoken English. If I had not worked hard at English, I would not have been able to help John.
