Dear Mike,
How is everything going with you? Hearing that you have a plan to learn Chinese, I’m writing to recommend a university that you can have a fruitful learning experience. My recommendation is Peking University, a well-known university suitable for language learning in China.
The reasons account for my recommendation are as follows. To begin with, being a first-class university with the best equipments and the finest teachers, Peking University is capable of offering professional guide and systematic training to you to master Chinese. That I think will impress you must be the resources you can have access during the whole process. Furthermore, locating in Beijing, which is the capital of China, this university has had profound historical culture. Thus, not only can we get to know those who speak standard Mandarin, but you will experience the power of Chinese culture.
All in all, I really hope you can pay a visit to Beijing. I’ll wait for you here and offer help wherever you need.
Yours sincerely,
Jane

I come from one of those families where you have to yell at the dinner table to get in a word. Everyone has a strong _________ and talks at the same time, and no one has _________ leading to heated arguments. My aunts and uncles are lawyers. Discussions on politics are considered polite conversations. We’re that kind of family.
_______ a family like mine has made me more _________ about the world around me, making me tend to question anything anyone tells me. But it has also made me realize that I’m not a good listener. And when I say “listening”, I’m not_________ the nodding-your-head-and-_________-answering-Uh-huh-or-Ooh-I-see variety. I mean the kind of listening where you find yourself deeply _________ with the person you’re speaking with, when his story becomes so _________ that your world becomes less about you and more about him. No, I was never very good at that.
I spent summer in South Africa two years ago. I worked for a good non-profit _________ called Noah, which tirelessly __________ children affected by AIDS. But __________ you asked me what I really did in South Africa, I’d tell you one thing: I listened, and I listened. Sometimes I __________, but mostly I listened.
And had I not spent two months __________, I might have missed the touching __________ when a quiet little girl at one of Noah’s community centers, orphaned at the age of three, whispered after a long __________, “I love you.”
________ that summer, I knew how to hear. I could sit down with anyone and hear their __________ and nod and respond at the __________ time but most of the time I was __________ about the next words out of my own mouth.
