Question

Dear Li Ming,

   I've been in England for two months now. I hope you don't think I have forgotten you. There are so many places to see and so many things to do that I've not had much time to write letters.

   I will soon be starting my studies at King's College. So far iVe been learning about England and British ways of living. I will tell you about London. One great thing about it is that it has lots of books you can read and lots of pictures you can look at. I am sure you’ll be more interested to know what I think about the life here.

   I find some of the customs (風俗) new and interesting. People here don't shake hands as much as we do in Germany. During the first few weeks I was often surprised because people didn't put out their hands when I met them. Men raise their hats to women but not to each other.

Yours,

Wang Gang
