Dear editor,

    I'm a Senior Two student in a high school. I'm writing to tell you about some symptoms of anxiety among us students before exams. ……

Yours,

Li Hua

Dear friends,

    The recent success of children's books has made the general public aware that there's a huge market out there.

    And there's a growing need for new writers trained to create the $3 billion worth of children's books bought each year… plus stories and articles needed by over 650 publishers of magazines for children and teenagers. Who are these needed writers? They're ordinary people like you and me.

    But am I good enough?

    I was once where you might be now. My thoughts of writing had been pushed down by self-doubt, and I didn't know where to turn for help.

    Then, I accepted a free offer from the Institute to test my writing ability, and it turned out to be the inspiration I needed.

    The promise that paid off

    The Institute made the same promise to me that they will make to you, if you show basic writing ability: you will complete at least one manuscript (手稿) suitable to hand in to a publisher by the time you finish our course.

    I really didn't expect any publication(出版) before I finished the course, but that happened. I sold three stories. And I soon discovered that was not unusual at the Institute. Since graduation, I have written 34 nationally published children's books and over 300 stories and articles.

    Free test and brochure

    We offer a free ability test and will send you a copy of our brochure describing our recognized home-study courses on the basis of one-on-one training.

    Realize your writing dream today. There's nothing sadder than a dream delayed until it disappears forever.

    Sincerely,

    Kristi Hill

    Institute of Children's Literature

    Last Friday we have a discussion about whether it is the only way out for senior students to go to college.

    The majority of us considering it very necessary to go to college. They think it can be widen their knowledge and improve their qualities. Only in this way can they find better jobs before graduation. Very few students think it no use go to university. Moreover, it's rather hard for graduates look for satisfied jobs. Thirty percents of the students believe it doesn't make some difference whether they go to college or not.

    In my opinion, we can better themselves through college education so that we can serve society better in the future.
