I’m more than happy to hear you. You told me you were having trouble learn Chinese and wanted some advices from me.
Firstly, why not to learn to sing Chinese songs? It’s a good way to learn Chinese and can make you feel relaxing. Secondly, you can make some Chinese friends. Although you get along well with it, they will help you to learn Chinese. Beside, it will be helpful if you watched some Chinese TV programmes and read some Chinese novels. Finally, joining a club is also the good way to learn Chinese. In this way, you will get more chances to practice Chinese.
I hope the suggestions will be useful.

Cold blesses us all
It's November, the time of year when people often get blessed more. This is not because God likes cold weather, nor because others are fee ling generous with Thanksgiving just around the corner. 1.
Colds and the flu are the most common illnesses people get in autumn and winter as the weather gets colder. They are all caused by viruses, but colds are generally milder—you'll feel annoyed but not as if you want to die.
Teenagers catch average six to ten colds a year, according to statistics from the M inistry of Health, while adults average two to four. More than 200 viruses cause cold symptoms. 2. You can be contagious（传染的）one day before symptoms develop and for up to five days after becoming sick.
The signature symptom of a cold is a runny nose. The flu will make you burn with fever, ache all over, feel extremely tired and cough intensely. The flu can sometimes lead to more serious diseases, such as pneumonia.
3. A doctor can test you to see whether you have the flu in the first few days of the illness. But some treatments for both are pretty much the same:
● 4. Many doctors consider water a weapon against the common cold. It helps your blood drive off viruses and flood them out.
● Keep warm. You might be cold one minute and hot the next, and wearing several layers is very important.
● Wash your hands frequently. You don't want to make it worse by spreading the flu to everyone else. Also, avoid sharing cups and eating utensil s(餐具) with other people.
5. But if your flu symptoms get worse, go to a hospital or clinic right away.
A. You can pass on the flu before you even know you have it.
B. Drink lots of water.
C. Taking medicine on time is a good way to prevent the illness.
D. "Bless you!" is a common response to sneezes, the symptom of catching a cold or the flu.
E. Get lots of sleep and take it easy.
F. Sometimes, it's hard to tell a cold from the flu based on symptoms alone.
G. Most people who catch the flu get better without having to see their doctor.
