<Subject: I’m puzzled>

Dear Li Yong.

   How are you?

I hear that 2009 is the year of the bull in the Chinese lunar calendar, I am so curious about this , You know that we New Zealanders keep millions of bulls throughout the coutry here, yet many of us don’t know much about the bull in the eyes of the Chinese people . What’s the symbolic significance of the bull? Would you please tell me something about it / Waiting for your reply

Best wish !

Yours,

Jessie

Dear Jssie.

   How are you doing these days? I ‘ve received your letter and now I’m writing to tell you something about the year of the bull(牛)．   

 The bull in Chinese culture has some symbolic significance．First，the bull is full of strength，so it helps farmers plough the farmland．Next，the bull is willing to devote itself to people．It offers us milk to drink，beef to eat and even fur to make cIothes and bags with，but it never complains．Besides，the bull also stands for a great determination，and it will never change its mind until it achieves its goal．What’s more the hull is a symbol of honesty，which is one of the best qualities of human beings．  

  Now the New Year has already come．Wish you a“Happy牛Year”．

Take care!   

                                                                       Yours

LI Yong
