91. A Letter of Farewell 告別信
August 18, 2001
Dear Xiao-gang,
I'm afraid that I won't be able to meet you again before I leave Beijing, so I am now writing to say good-bye. My stay in Beijing has been an unforgettable experience. I have visited many famous and interesting places, such as Tian'anmen Square, the Summer Palace, the Great Wall and the World Park, etc. I have had a happy time here. I have written down what I saw and felt in my diary. I'll tell all of that to my classmates, who have never been to Beijing.
I'll go back to my home town tomorrow morning, but I would like to take this chance to thank you for your friendly and kind reception. I hope we'll meet again in the near future.
With all my best wishes!
Yours sincerely,
Hanlin
親愛的曉剛:
離開北京前恐怕不能再見你了,所以寫此信告別。我在北京的經歷令人難以忘懷,我訪問了許多名勝古跡,天安門、頤和園、長城、世界公園等。我玩得很高興。我在日記里記下了我的所見所聞,我會將我這一切告訴我的同學,他們曾未到過北京。
明天我將回家鄉(xiāng),借此機會感謝你的友好和款待,希望我們不久能再見。
順致祝愿!
您的真誠的
漢林
