Writing exercise

Hello everybody, I am Tina. I disagree Chinese students should come back to China during this special period. There are three reasons.

Firstly, the Novel Coronavirus is spreading around the world, we need to prevent ourselves. So we should avoid traveling, such as airplane, bus and train.

Secondly, now China is more saver than other countries, if the oversea students come back to China they may be have got the Novel Coronavirus, and they will spread to us. It is dangerous.

Thirdly, the Chinese students can stay at other countries to teach them how to wear a mask properly and what is the seven key steps to wash hands. Because other countries help us before , now they are in trouble , so we need to help them.

That is all my opinion, thank you.

That is all of my opinion about this topic. Thank you.
