Dear Tom,
Chinese students celebrate birthdays just like other people do. We have parties! At a party, gifts are given to the person whose birthday it is. There are many activities, like singing and dancing, as well as giving good wishes. However, I think a more meaningful way to celebrate would be to thank the person who gave birth: the mother. On our birthdays, we could buy a bouquet or make a nice meal for our mothers, to thank them for their love and dedication. What do you think?
Your friend,
Hua Li
