An Australian Boy in Beijing
809 West Chang’an Street
Beijing, China
December 21, 2003
Dear Peter,
I’ve been here in Beijing for half a year now. Beijing is in the north of China, so it’s quite cold in winter. It has just snowed twice here.
I’m going to have the first “White Christmas” in my life! It’s hard to believe, isn’t it –so warm in Australia and so cold here?
Thank you for the wonderful stamps! I’ve collected over 300 Chinese stamps since I came here. I’m sending some Monkey King stamps to you. I think you will like them.
Now to answer some of your questions. Yes, I’m learning Chinese. Chinese is quite a difficult language for me. Last time Mum asked for some quilts（被子） in a shop. They showed her some cups. Dad and I had a good laugh over that. I’ve learned about 500 Chinese words. I can even write a little Chinese now. Have you looked at the words on the Christmas card? I wrote them myself!
No, I’m not swimming. Instead, I’m learning to skate on real ice! I’ve had so many falls that I’m black and blue all over. But I’m learning fast.
I’ve traveled to several places in south China with Mum and Dad since we came to China. I’ve seen a lot of interesting things. I’ve made quite a few good friends, too.
I have to finish the letter now. Ask Uncle John and Aunt Alice to bring you, too, when they come in August, We’ll have a good time together then.
Yours,
Mike

Many American presidents in the 19th century were born in poor families. They spent their childhood in little wooden rooms. They got little education. Washington and Lincoln, for example, never went to school and they taught themselves. Lincoln once did jobs of worker, shopkeeper and post-master in his early years.
A large number of American presidents had experiences in the army. The two best known were Ulysses Grant and Dwight D. Eisenhower. Grant was a general in the American Civil War and Eisenhower was a hero in World War II. It happened that they graduated from the same school----West Point Military Academy（西点军校）. One may be surprised to learn that both of them did not do well in the school. Eisenhower, for example, was once fined （punished to pay money） because he broke the rules of the school.
The jobs of the US presidents are tiring. He must keep an eye on anything important that happens both at home and abroad. Every day, a lot of work waits for him to do and he has to make many important decisions. When Franklin Roosevelt was a child, he was once brought to visit President Taft. The old president said to him, “When you grow up, you should not be president. It’s a tiring job.”
