Prctice 向朋友推荐学习中国传统文化
假定你是学生李华,外国友人Sam看了2022年初的北京冬奥会开幕式后对中国产生了极大兴
趣,想向你询问学习中国传统文化的好方法,你回信给他建议。
内容主要包括:
1. 表示荣幸和开心并为他简介中国传统文化的特点;

Dear Sam,
Due to the fact that Chinese traditional cultures extremely appeal to you at present, my heart is
filled with so much excitement that I can’t wait to offer relevant information.
Traditional Chinese culture constantly impresses generations with its extensive, abundant and
profound history. Diverse cultural forms have been created with representatives such as calligraphy, Tai
Chi, and solar terms. For a starter like you, Chinese calligraphy is highly recommended because it’s a
natural combination of beauty, history, culture and technique. In the process of systemic calligraphy
courses, you might as well firstly choose Chinese characters from the well-established Three Character
Primer(三字经), which can inform you of the most frequently used characters, as well as the
fundamental traditional cultural elements, like “kindness, righteousness, , courtesy, wisdom and trust”.
Additionally, by imitating works of famous calligraphers, you’ll not only improve your Chinese, but also
benefit your mental health.
I sincerely hope my advice and recommendation can be of benefit. Expecting your reply at your
earliest convenience.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二部分 中国智慧
范文3中国传统文化--汉字介绍
Chinese Characters
The legend of Cang Jie inventing writing is mythological. Chinese characters were not created by Cang Jie
alone; he probably only undertook the tasks of regulating and recording them. The invention of Chinese characters
marked the beginning of Chinese civilization. Thanks to the writing system, the wisdom of the Chinese race hasbeen passed down from generation to generation.
Chinese characters are unique with a long history. Of the world’s four major ancient civilizations in the world,
while the characters of the other three have fallen into disappearance, Chinese characters have not only been
preserved but are still widely used in modern society. Each character in the written Chinese ideographic system
has its specific connotation.Chinese characters have undergone more than 5,000 years of changes, and the
evolution process is: Oracle (Shang) → Bronze (Zhou) → Xiao Zhuan (Qin) → Official script (Han) → Regular
script (Wei Jin) → Running script.
In a word, Chinese characters have impressive effects on politics, economy, culture, history and so on at home
and abroad,which has a great impact on the development of world civilization..
范文4 向外国友人介绍文房四宝—毛笔
假如你是李华,你的美国笔友 Tom来信, 告知他对中国传统文化尤其是文房四宝非常感兴趣,请你
给他写一封邮件进行介绍,内容包括:
1.概述文房四宝笔墨纸砚;
2.选取其中一种详细介绍(起源、形状、材质、使用方法、地位等);
3、欢迎他来中国体验。
注意:1.词数100左右; 2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯;
Dear Tom,
How are you doing? I’m so glad to know that you are fond of “Four Treasures of the Study”. It’s my pleasure
to introduce one of them,the brush pen to you.
“Four Treasures of the Study” refers to the brush pen, inkstick, paper and ink stone. The origin of the brush
pen can date back to the ancient Xia and Shang dynasties. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, it had been
already produced and put into use.
The original pen was just a stick or piece of bamboo, which made writing on thin silk very slow. Its present
form was created by Meng Tian, a general of the Kingdom of Qin. He improved it by tying rabbit’s fur to the
stick. After that, it has been improved by many scholars and calligraphers. Materials for the brush include the hair
of goat or wolf , and the body can be made of bamboo or ivory. Without the writing brush, Chinese painting and
calligraphy could not have achieved such distinct features.
That’s all about the brush pen. Isn’t it fantastic? Welcome to China to experience it by yourself.
Yours ,
Li Hua

Dear Jack,
I’m glad to know you’re interested in Chinese Calligraphy. It’s my pleasure to tell you how to
learn Chinese calligraphy.
As we all know, the four treasures of the study are writing brush, ink, paper and ink stone, which
are essential to learn Chinese calligraphy. As to the way to learn it, I think, for one thing, you may study
the basic structure of each Chinese character step by step;for another, choosing a good model book to
copy is of great benefit to you. What’s more, If I were you, I would learn different types of Chinese
Calligraphy, which has developed into various categories over centuries. Only in this way can you have a
full understanding of it.
Chinese calligraphy is a fine art of the excellent traditional cultures in China. Not only does it do
good to health, but also it can cultivate morality and purify our souls.
I hold the firm belief that you will succeed eventually as long as you put your heart into it.
Hopefully, my suggestions are useful to you .Looking forward to your coming to China to enjoy it
personally.
Yours,
Li Hua
Four Inventions of Ancient China
范文6向外国友人介绍中国古代四大发明—造纸术
假定你是李华,你的英国朋友Peter 对中国古代四大发明造纸术很感兴趣,发来邮件向你咨询,请回
复邮件。
要点如下:1.简要介绍中国四大发明;2.介绍造纸术(起源、发展和影响等)。
注意:1.词数100次左右;2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。
Dear Peter
How’s everything going? I'm more than glad to know that you are interested in the Four Great Inventions of
Ancient China, especially paper-making and as your best friend, it’s my pleasure to share relevant informationwith you.
At first, “the Four Great Inventions of Ancient China” refers to paper-making, the art of movable-type printing,
gunpowder and the compass. The origin of paper-making can date back to the Eastern Han Dynasty, two thousand
years ago and it was Cai Lun who invented paper.
Before his time, people had used natural materials such as tortoise shells, animal bones, bamboo slats or
expensive silk to write on. Apart from their high cost, these things were not easy to carry around or to store. To
deal with these problems, Cai Lun used pieces of tree bark(树皮), sodden flax(烂麻), rags(破布) and
scraps of fishing nets (破渔网)to make paper successfully. After that, it gradually replaced bamboo and silk as
the medium for writing and painting, which has a great impact on the development of world civilization.
That’s all about paper-making. Isn’t it fantastic? I hope what I have mentioned is of great help.
Yours,
Li Hua

要点如下:1.简要介绍中国四大发明;
2.介绍活字印刷术(起源、发展和影响等)。
注意:1.词数100次左右;
2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯;
Dear Peter
I'm more than glad to know that you are interested in the Four Great Inventions of Ancient China, especially
movable-type printing and as your best friend, it’s my pleasure to share relevant information with you.
At first, “the Four Great Inventions of Ancient China” refers to paper-making, movable-type printing,
gunpowder and the compass.The origin of movable-type printing can date back to the Northern Song Dynasty.
Following Cai Lun’s invention of the paper-making technique in the Han Dynasty(206BC-220AD), the
material for writing books on became much lighter and more economical than before, but the process of recording
written works was very labor-intensive(劳动密集的).
It is Bi Sheng who was a woodblock printer in the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127)that created movable-
type of printing. Its emergence caused woodblock printing to develop into typesetting printing, greatly increasing
the efficiency of printing and lowering its cost. It was a great revolution in the history of printing and it quickly
spread to every country in the world. The development of printing spurred the emergence of the mass-productionof books and documents. It also made a great contribution to the spread of knowledge and culture.
That’s all about movable-type printing. I hope what I have mentioned is of great help.
Best wishes!

The Four Great Inventions of Ancient China—Gunpowder
Good morning boys and girls,
My name is Li Hua, coming from Class 10 Senior 3. It’s my great honor to make/deliver a speech here and
today my topic is “The Four Great Inventions of Ancient China—Gunpowder”.
At first, “the Four Great Inventions of Ancient China” refers to paper-making, movable-type printing,
gunpowder and the compass. Among them, gunpowder gradually emerged in the course of the smelting of
cinnabar(炼丹过程) , in which the fire and explosions led to the discovery of gunpowder. After several similar
incidents, people gradually realized that a mixture of saltpeter(硝石), sulfur (硫)and charcoal (碳)was very
inflammable(易燃的), and so they called it “fire powder”. It was not until the Tang Dynasty(618-907) that
gunpowder began to be used as a kind of weapons in actual warfare.
In the Ming Dynasty, it was Wan Hu who was the first person on earth to conduct experiments with man-
carried “fire arrows”, which could be said to be the forerunners of modern rockets(现代火箭的雏形).Following
the invention of gunpowder in China, it gradually spread to other parts of Asia, then Africa and Europe, and then
to every part of the world. It promoted the development of military science and progress in the history of
mankind.
Gunpowder is a crystallization of the wisdom of the ancient Chinese people and its invention had a great
impact on the development of world civilization.Therefore, it is one reason we are proud of China.
That’s all about my speech and thanks for your listening.

The Four Great Inventions of Ancient China—The Compass
Good morning boys and girls,
My name is Li Hua, coming from Class 10 Senior 3. It’s my great honor to make/deliver a speech here and
today my topic is “The Four Great Inventions of Ancient China—The Compass”.
At first, “the Four Great Inventions of Ancient China” refers to paper-making, movable-type printing,
gunpowder and the compass. For the origin of the compass, there are several different versions and one of them is
related to the Yellow Emperor inventing a “south-pointing chariot”(指南车). Another one is that Ma Jun of the
Three Kingdoms Period (220-280) invented it.
According to records, people discovered a kind of stone with the property of mutual attraction and aligning
in a south-north direction(一种彼此吸引和指向南北方向的特性) and these stones were natural magnets. During
the Warring States Period(475-221) ,they were shaped into the form of a spoon, and placed on a polished bronze
plate. The spoon could then revolve into the south-pointing position, and it was called the “south governor司南”
(compass). After that, it was developed and improved gradually.
The compass was already being used for maritime navigation(航海事业) in the Northern Song Dynasty(960-
1127). In the following Southern Song Dynasty(1127-1279) the compass was introduced to Europe by Arab
traders. The invention of the compass was an important condition enabling global voyages, and gave a powerful
impetus(促进) to the development of international trade, and economic and cultural exchanges.(指南针的发
明,对实现环球航行提供了重要条件,对世界贸易的发展和经济文化的交流起到了巨大的推动作用)
That’s all about my speech and thanks for your listening.

The Origin of the Lantern Festival
There are many different beliefs about the origin of the Lantern Festival. But one thing for sure is that ithad something to do with religious worship.
One legend tells us that it’s history can date back to as early as the Western Han Dynasty(206BC-AD25).
Emperor Mingdi (明帝)advocated Buddhism(佛教), and he heard that Buddhism monks lighted lights to
show their respect to the Buddha on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. They believed that the power
of Buddha can dispel darkness.(他们相信佛陀的力量能驱散黑暗)So Emperor Mingdi ordered his
subjects(臣民) to display lighted lanterns during what was to become the Lantern Festival.
The Origin of Tomb-Sweeping Day/ Qingming Festival
It dates back to the Spring and Autumn Period. People celebrate it in memory of one of the prince‘s faithful
followers, Jiezitui(介子推). To save his master, he cut a piece of muscle from his own leg and served it to his
master, Chong’er(晋文公重耳).
Qingming is popularly associated with Jie Zitui, who lived in Shanxi province 600B.C. Legend has it that Jie
saved his starving lord’s life by serving a piece of his own leg. But, finally died in a big fire put by the lord. To
commemorate Jie, the lord ordered that fires could not be lit on the day of Jie Zitui’s death. From this comes Hanshi
Day that occurs on the eve of Qingming and is often considers part of the Qingming festival.
The Origin of Dragon Boat Festival Qu Yuan jumped off river
Qu Yuan, an honest, upright, loyal minister of the Kingdom of Chu who is said to have committed suicide by
drowning himself in the Miluo River. In order to avoid his body to be eaten by fish and shrimp, people cast many
of bamboo rice into the river, and compete to row, hoping to rescue and recover the body of Qu Yuan.
Starting from that time to this day, people commemorate patriotic poet Qu Yuan dumplings, and several other
activities on the anniversary of his death.
The Origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival Chang’e flew to the moon.
According to Chinese mythology, the earth once had 10 suns appeared together, scorching the earth with their
heat. The earth was saved when a strong archer, Hou Yi, succeeded in shooting down 9 of the suns, Yi got the
elixir(长生药) of life. But his wife, Chang’e drank it. Thus started the legend of the lady in the moon to whom
young Chinese girls would pray at the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The Mid-Autumn Festival
The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th of the eighth month of our Chinese lunar calendar.
As one of the traditional Chinese festivals, it has been enjoying great popularity in our country. Usually, no
matter how far away or how busy we are, we will try to come home for the celebration. The moon that night
looks the brightest in the whole lunar month. What we love most is the time we enjoy the full moon together.
With the beautiful moon up in the sky, we sit together and eat moon cakes and fruit, sharing our stories. In
addition to these traditional activities, we have a wider range of choices such as travelling and visiting our
relatives or friends.
Such is the Mid-Autumn Festival, a traditional but colourful festival.

Dear Peter,
Knowing that you express a keen interest in Chinese culture, I’m more than glad to tell you something
concerning the Double Ninth Festival.
The Double Ninth Festival, a traditional Chinese festival, falls on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month.
In fact, it is a festival for the elderly. On this day, some pay a visit to their parents or grandparents, sending them
their best wishes and spending some fun time with them. Others may do some voluntary work in a nursing house.
They sing, dance, play games with these senior citizens and keep them company. In my opinion, this festival is of
great significance because it reminds the young to have a sincere respect for the aged.
I hope you have a deeper understanding of Chinese culture after knowing more about the Double Ninth
Festival.Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

misunderstanding, and enhance a friendship or relationship with another person. If a person steps on
your foot and apologizes by saying “sorry”, you may forgive him with a smile.
Polite words make a person feel more appreciated and helpful. If a person says “thank you” after
you have done something nice for him, you know that he values you. On the contrary, if someone
doesn’t say “thank you” after you have done him a favor, you will think that he is ungrateful.

Dining Customs in China中国饮食习俗
As a country that pays great attention to courtesy, our cuisine culture is deedly rooted in Chinese history.
Before starting to eat dinner, the host may offer some words of greeting. Guests should not start to eat until the
host says “Please enjoy yourselves.” or something like that. Seating arrangement is also one of the most important
parts of Chinese dining etiquette.
Chinese use chopsticks instead of forks and knives. China is the hometown of chopsticks. A pair of
chopsticks, though they look simple, can nip(夹), pick, rip(撕) and stir (搅拌)food.
Food plays a crucial role in Chinese life. At an everyday home meal, we often eat a bowl of steamed rice, or a
large bowl of noodles, or several pieces of steamed bread as staple food(主食), accompanied by several meat or
vegetables dishes, and the dishes are placed in the middle of the dinner table to be shared by all. A soup may also
be served as one of the dishes. Everyday meals are usually cooked by Chinese themselves.

Last week, we took the foreign students in our school to experience Chinese tea culture, which
turned out to be extremely meaningful.
On arriving at the tea house, the foreign students were impressed by the unique tea pots and tea cups.
I gave them a vivid and informative introduction of tea culture, including its profound history, its rich
variety, and procedure of making tea. In order to help them have a better understanding of the whole
procedure, I made tea in person. Absorbed in every move of mine, the foreign students were once again
amazed by this unique culture and they couldn’t help taking pictures form time to time.
The highlight is that they had a try themselves. Under my guidance, they washed the tea pots, added
tea leaves and poured water into the cups. The tea house witnessed a really enjoyable time for all of us.

relies on natural products and has been playing a significant role in health protection and disease control for
thousands of years.

假定你是李华,你校英语俱乐部即将举行主题为“My Favorite Chinese Classical Garden”英语

My Favorite Chinese Classical Garden
Good morning boys and girls,
My name is Li Hua, coming from Class 10 Senior 3. It’s my great honor to make/deliver a speech
here and today my topic is “My Favorite Chinese Classical Garden”.
As we know, there are many kinds of architectures at home and abroad, but my favorite is the
Chinese classical gardens. It’s not only because of their charming design in shape, but also due to its
unique design concept—the idea of nature-human integration.
The Chinese classical garden is a precious treasure of our ancient Chinese architecture. It is a kind
of environment art, which systematically combines artificial mountains and rivers, plants and buildings
with the natural landscape. The construction standard of a Chinese classical garden is “Artificial as it is,
the garden must look ingenious and natural.” 中国园林把人造的山水、植物、建筑等与自然地貌有
机结合的环境艺术,是我国古代建筑艺术的珍宝。其建造原则是“妙极自然,宛自天开”。
Known as the “Venice of the East”, the elegant city of Suzhou is famous for its classical gardens in
China. Gardens there are considered classic examples of Chinese landscape architecture, in which, the
designers pursued the harmony of the man, the architecture and the nature. When you go sightseeing there,
you should be able to appreciate its artistic concept which “makes use of the natural landscape to create the
real fun of mountains and rivers for viewers.” 当你(在其间)游赏时,能充分领略“假自然之景,创
山水真趣”的园林意境。
Of the world’s three major garden systems, the Chinese classical garden is hailed as one of the
origins of the world’s garden due to its long
history and abundant connotations. Therefore, that’s the
reason I like it most.
That’s all about my speech, thanks for your listening.
