　　Dear Mr Heppell,

　　I am Sabrina Akhtar studying in a high school and I've noticed that forests are disappearing(消失).

　　You know, forests are disappearing around the world each year. This is because of many different reasons including farming, tourisms pollution(污染), etc. If we stop doing these things, there will be a good future for people of tomorrow.

　　Now I'm writing to ask you to help stop forests from disappearing. You can help by getting shops to stop selling paper made from trees and changing to tree-free paper(paper not made from trees). This will help forests so much. There are many, many things we can do to help forests. If you would like to know more, please visit http://www.Rainforestweb.org/. By changing the little things, we can make a big difference.

　　If you would like to contact me, please see the above address or e-mail me at shazadinol@hotmail.co.uk.  Thank you for taking your time in reading this letter.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Sabrina Akhtar

Did you travel abroad during the National Day holiday? As it is becoming easier

to get visas(签证)to foreign countries, more and more Chinese people are traveling abroad during

the holidays. However, some countries are not so welcoming to Chinese tourists.

　 A recent survey of 5,600 people from five countries showed that the Chinese people are the

second most unpopular tourists, just behind the US citizens. What’s wrong with us ?

　 “The Chinese always like staying together and talking very loudly,” Dai Bin of the China

Tourism Academy told Chinese media .

　 In fact ,this is just the tip of the iceberg .Chinese tourists have a bad reputation(名声)

abroad for many reasons .

　 Zhang Minjie, a tour guide, was embarrassed when he led a group of Chinese tourists to Singapore . “A young man spit his gum out .When he was about to leave, the police caught him and fined him 20 Singapore dollars(102 yuan) ,” Zhang told Qianjiang Evening News.

　 Some Chinese also litter everywhere and jump queues .Some like to write on famous buildings .In Hong Kong ,many local people complain that tourists from the Chinese mainland spit and smoke in non-smoking areas .None of these problems help the reputation of Chinese people traveling abroad .However, there are still plenty of thoughtful Chinese tourists ,who behave respectfully when visiting famous places ,taking a few photos before moving on to the next spot .

　 Although we spend money to enjoy ourselves, it doesn’t mean we can do anything we want .All travelers should respect local customs and take care of the environment .
