A 290-word composition on weekly diary

This week is Mandarin Promotion Week. I have a fulfilling and happy life, and I have gained a lot!

During this event, I heard a joke: A Cantonese man went on a business trip abroad and walked into a restaurant. A waiter saw him and came to him. He tried his best to communicate with the Cantonese in Mandarin: "Excuse me, what are you going to eat?" The Cantonese didn't understand what the waiter said, so he scratched the back of his head and then said : "I want to eat steamed buns." The waiter heard this and mistakenly thought that the Cantonese people wanted to read the newspaper. She quickly took out the current issue of the newspaper and handed it to the Cantonese people. When the Cantonese people saw it, they knew something about it and couldn't laugh or cry. The Cantonese man shook his head and said, "I want a big fat chicken." The waiter said, "It's still early to take a flight!" The Cantonese man smiled bitterly.

China is a powerful country. Mandarin is the main language of our country, the most spoken language in the world, and one of the most developed languages ??in the world. As students in the new century and young people across the century, in addition to mastering cultural knowledge, we should also learn Mandarin well. Language is a tool for communication, as well as a tool for social struggle and development. As the saying goes: "Learn Mandarin well, and you won't be afraid of traveling all over the country!"
