给英语老师的一封信 A Letter to My English Teacher

Dear Miss Zhu,

亲爱的周老师，

How time flies! It has been a fewyears since I left high school, but I still remember you in my heart, becauseyou’re the best teacher in my mind. It’s not only because you taught meknowledge, but also you taught me how to study. I have really benefitted a lotfrom you. So I would like to express my great thanks to you, and share my lifein college with you.

时间飞逝！我高中毕业已经几年了，但我仍然把你记在我的心里，因为你是我心目中最好的老师。这不仅是因为你教与我知识，而且你还教我如何学习。从你身上我真的获益匪浅。所以我想向你表达我的感谢，并与你分享我的大学生活。

Now I’m studying in Hunan FirstNormal College, which is Chairman Mao’s former school. I major in English,because I find it so fun and interesting. As far as I’m concerned, our EnglishDepartment is the best department in our college. The teachers in ourdepartment are knowledgeable, experienced, and warm-hearted. And my classmatesare nice, friendly and helpful. Thus, I have a good atmosphere to study. When Ihave difficulties in study, I always ask my teachers for help or discuss with myclassmates. Through their help, I have made great progress in my English study.

我现在在湖南第一师范学校学习，这是毛主席之前呆过的学校。我的专业是英语，因为我觉得它很有趣。我觉得我们英语系是我校最好的学部。我们系的老师知识渊博，经验丰富，热心肠。我的同学们也很和蔼，友好，乐于助人。因此，我拥有一个很好的学习氛围。当我在学习上遇到困难时，我总是向我的老师寻求帮助或与同学讨论。在他们的帮助下，我在英语学习上取得了很大的进步。

College life is much differentfrom high school life. In college, we should acquire knowledge as well asimprove our integrated abilities. There are a lot of English classes for us tolearn, such as Basic English, Oral English, Listening, Reading, Writing,Translation, Grammar, English Literature, and so on. I enjoy these classes verymuch. Except English, we have many other subjects to learn. Life seems so busyhere but it’s so fruitful for me.

大学生活与高中生活有很大的不同。在大学，我们要获取知识也要提高我们的综合能力。我们要上很多的英语课，比如，基础英语，英语口语，听力阅读，写作，翻译，语法，英语文学等。我非常喜欢这些课。除英语外，我们还要学习很多其他科目。在这里生活是如此的忙碌，但这对我来说是如此丰硕的收获。

After class, I usually go to theEnglish Corner. There I can practice my oral English by talking with foreignersor chatting with my schoolmates. Now, I’m able to communicate with foreignerswell. Sometimes I also take part in some social activities. For instance, lastweekend I attended an interesting play. As it was my first performance, I felta little nervous at the beginning. But when I appeared on the stage, I madeevery audience laugh happily. I was so proud of myself at that moment, becausethis was my first achievement.

下课后，我经常去英语角。在那里我可以通过与外国人或我的同学聊天来练习我的英语口语。现在我可以很好的和外国人交流了。有时候我也可以参加一些社交活动。例如，上周我参加了一个有趣的表演。因为是我第一次表演，所以一开始的时候我觉得有点紧张。但当我出现在舞台上时，我让每一个观众都开心的笑了。在那一刻，我为我自己感到骄傲，因为这是我的第一个收获。

What about your present life? Ihope to hear from you soon.

你目前生活怎么样呢？希望很快能收到你的回信。
At last, I hope everything goeswell with you. Please give my best regards to your family.

最后，我希望你一切顺利。请代我向你的家人问好。

Sincerelyyours,

Jason
