1 . Months ago, a woman named Du Bo shared a short video online. In the video, she walks slowly through a forest covered with snow, as the song “Let It Go” is played. The woman is not an actress but the director (局长) of the Culture and Tourism Bureau of Tahe, Heilongjiang. In the short video, Du wears the traditional clothes. It looks very beautiful.

Though the video lasts (持续) less than half a minute, it took Du about two hours at -20℃to shoot the video. Du had to drink two pots of ginger (姜) tea to warm herself up after the shooting. She said she hopes to show the beauty of her hometown with the short video.

As short videos are becoming more and more popular in China, many tourism officials (官员) choose to make creative short videos to show traditional Chinese culture and invite tourists to visit their hometown.

People like these tourism officials’ short videos, and they think they’re helpful, because it helps people know more about sights in small places. It also helps local farmers sell their products through live-streaming (直播). Anyhow, it is good to see that tourism officials think out of the box.

4 . Dear Zhang Hua,

Have you ever been to Thailand? It is a country in Southeast Asia. I’ve been in Thailand for a few days with my parents. We are here for a holiday.

Now we are staying in Bangkok. It is the capital of Thailand and it is a very interesting place to visit. Yesterday we visited some places of interest in the city. They are great! This morning we went shopping. Bangkok is a wonderful place to shop for jewelry (珠宝) and clothes. My mother bought a nice necklace; my father and I bought some fashionable T-shirts.

Thailand is called “Land of Smiles” because people here are very friendly. And it’s true! When we eat in the restaurants in Bangkok, the waiters are really nice and they are always smiling. Thai food is delicious, but it is sometimes a little spicy (辛辣的) for me. You can also get Chinese food here because a lot of Chinese people came to live in Bangkok many years ago. Chinese food is very good, and it isn’t as spicy as Thai food. American food can also be found in Bangkok. However, I don’t eat it. You know, I’d like to try new things when I travel.

The weather has been very hot. Yesterday it rained and got a little cooler. But today it’s hot again.

Yours,

Mary
