With the support of our readers, China Today has become successful in helping1 the world learn about China, and has built a bridge of friendship between the people of China and the rest of the world.

Every day we receive many letters from our readers expressing their admiration2 for China, their appreciation3 of our work, and suggestions for improving the quality of the magazine. Some letters are published in “Postbag” while others are kept for reference4.

Many readers have suggested contests to develop closer contact (联系) between readers and editors. We held a History and Tourism Contest in 1995 and a China Travel Contest in 1996. We received warm responses to both.

This year, China Today is holding a Reading Contest. Questions, chosen from articles published this year, will appear every three issues6 (期). Entrants (参赛者) must mail their answers before January 31, 1999. Fifty entries (参加) with correct answers to all the questions will be selected as prize winners. All the winners will be named in the April 1999 issue5. Please address your entries to:
