3. People in China couldn’t believe it! They were angry and there was a big hunt to find the person responsible.They could find him easily because the message wasn’t very imaginative or clever. It was basically ‘Ding Jinhao was here’. That was enough for Internet users to find this particular Ding Jinhao, a teenager in Nanjing.

Interviewer: What exactly does a graphic designer do? Julia: Well, we create visual concepts to deliver a desired message. We develop graphics for production illustrations, logos, websites. We also develop overall layout and production design for advertisements, brochures, magazines, corporate reports, etc. Interviewer: So it’s mostly involved images? Julia: We work with text as well. We use different types, fonts, sizes, colours, styles etc. to create special effects. We also decide how images and text will go together on a print or webpage, including how much space each will have. 5

Julia: Graphic designers usually need a bachelor’s degree in graphic design or a related field. Candidates for graphic design positions should demonstrate their creativity and originality through a professional portfolio that features their best designs. Interviewer: And?

The A Level, however, is not compulsory like the GCSE. Interviewer: So who would take the A Levels? Dr. Green: Usually students who want to progress to college or university. Interviewer: How long does it take to study for the A Levels? Dr. Green: Students have to take A level courses for two years, typically between the age of 16 and 18, and sit for an exam at the end of each year. Interviewer: What subjects can they take? Dr. Green: There is a wide variety of subjects to choose from really. Top three most popular subjects in 2016 include Mathematics, Biology, and Chemistry. Interviewer: Is it important what subjects you take? Dr. Green: Oh yes, definitely. What subjects you take will decide what you will continue to study at the college or university. For example, A Level history is a popular entry way into social science and history fields at university. Interviewer: Do you have any advice for the students who are taking the A Level? Dr. Green: Give a thought on what you want to do. 28% of the students surveyed in 2016 said they wished they had taken different A Levels. Then just study hard and get ready for the exams.

We were taught how to make banh bo – my favourite dish. I have the dish every weekend. The ingredients are quite simple. You just need some rice flour, sugar, coconut milk, tapioca starch and some brown yeast. It takes quite a long time to make it, but it’s worth waiting because the flavour is great. I like it because it reminds me of sweet childhood memories. Please come over to my home this summer holiday. I’ll make some banh bo for you. Love, 8
