Peter: Hey Yaming! What are you up to
Yaming: Hi Peter. I'm doing calligraphy.
Peter: It's beautiful! What are you writing
Yaming: It’s a poem by Li Bai. My grandmother taught me how to write it.
Peter: What’s this character
Yaming: It’s yue. It means “moon”.
Peter: It’s nice! I like watching you write like that. But it looks difficult.
Yaming: Well, the first step is always the hardest. When I started to do calligraphy, I spent hours practising single strokes.
Peter: I know how that feels! My dad’s teaching me to play the guitar. It’s difficult, but he always encourages me not to
give up.
Yaming: Exactly. Now I do calligraphy to relax. I even like how the ink smells! Why did you choose to play the guitar
Peter: I think playing the guitar is cool. Will you teach me to write a poem I can teach you to play a song in return.
Yaming: It’s a deal!

Thinking
5. How do you usually feel when you manage to do something difficult
Give an example.
I usually feel happy and proud/ confident when I manage to do something difficult.
成功做成某事
= succeed in doing sth.
For example, when I first learned to ride a bike, I kept falling down and it was really hard. But after weeks of practice, I finally rode it by myself. I felt so proud of myself and glad that I didn’t stop trying.
For example, making paper-cuts was quite difficult at first. Later I spent a lot of time practising. Now I am good at doing it. When I see the beautiful paper-cuts on the window, I feel happy and proud of myself.

I love doing Chinese calligraphy in my spare time. It makes me feel happy to write beautiful characters with a brush. It helps me to relax. It's a great way to learn more about our traditional culture. When I started to practice calligraphy last year, I thought it was a little difficult, but now I really like it.

I like to play the guitar when I’m free. It makes me feel happy to play pleasant musics with a guitar. It helps me to express how I feel. It's a wonderful way to feel the beauty of music culture. When I began to practice playing the guitar last term, I found it quite challenging at first, but now I really love the feelings it brings.
