假如你是李华,你的英国笔友Bob来信说,他不明白为什么许多中国父母喜欢用古代诗歌启蒙孩子。请你写一封回信对中国古诗进行介绍和评论。内容要点如下:

1.古代诗歌有一定的韵律,语言简洁,具有易学、易记的特点;

2.古代诗歌富含感情,且富有想象力,深受孩子们的喜爱。

注意:1.词数80左右;

2.可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。

参考范文

Dear Bob,

I was glad to hear from you.In your letter,you asked me why Chinese parents liked educating their children using ancient poems.

As you know,the ancient poem is a form of rhythmic language,and ancient poems often describe complex things in simple ways.These two characteristics especially appeal to children,who can learn and recite poems without too much difficulty.Once a poem is memorised,it’s hard to forget.What’s more,poems are both emotional and imaginative,which again makes them appeal to children.For all these reasons,parents love to use poems to teach their children.

Best wishes.

Yours,

Li Hua
