3. How often do you write letters?
I hardly ever write letters to anyone．I use my mobile phone a lot, and I call my
relatives or my family to keep in touch with them, or wish them a happy birthday. I used
to write New Year cards every Spring Festival, but I don’t anymore; I simply call or visit
everyone. In addition, I frequently talk to my friends using Instant Messenger（＝like QQ)．
There’s no real need for me to write emails, but I might start next year if I get to go abroad
to study.

Most difficult letter to write…That’s a tough question…I suppose it must be hard to
write a break-up letter to someone you care about. It must be very difficult too to pass on anykind
of bad news, or to react to bad news. Writing a letter of condolences when someone has died) must
be difficult. For young people, writing a resume and a cover letter can be challenging when you
don’t have any experience.
5. Which language do you prefer to write in?
Naturally my native language, Chinese！I already find it difficult to write smoothly
in Mandarin, so in English you can guess how difficult it can be to write in an elegant
manner and to be able to change from a casual style to a more formal one depending on
who you are writing to. From my experience, it’s extremely challenging to write in a second
language.
