参考答案：
1.As is known to all, Chinese painting is a crucial part of our traditional cultural; therefore, with great honor and curiosity, I paid a visit to the Chinese painting display exhibited in our school lecture hall at 9 a.m. yesterday.
During my one hour and a half’s visit, I was fully exposed to a world of art. The visit includes three parts, first of which is a brief introduction of the history of Chinese painting, traced back to 7000 years ago. In this part, many works painted on pottery, ground and rock wall in pictures are shown. The second part is tool display. The basic tools used are brush and ink and mineral pigments. At first, Chinese painting was painted on pottery, ground and rock wall, and gradually developed into painting on wall, silk and paper. In the third part of this exhibition, many paintings by famous arts are appreciated and discussed by students and teachers.,
Through this visit, I fall in love with Chinese painting and I would like to recommend my fellow students to have an amazing experience to this art show as well. And you won’t regret it.
2.Dear Chris,
How is everything going with you lately? A class meeting will be held in my school about Chinese traditional cultural and it will be displayed on the English website. I am writing to ask some advice from you on what kind of Chinese conventional cultural attracts the foreigners like you most.
As we all know, Chinese traditional culture includes calligraphy, Chinese knots, martial arts, Chinese paintings, ancient painted pottery, paper cutting, terracotta warriors and horses and so on. Besides, Chinese cultural also includes various cultural thoughts and spiritual concepts in the national history, which is mainly composed of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. How much do you want to know about each part, and would you please tell me which part you are curious about. What type of introduction will help foreigners to have a much clearer knowledge of their interested section?
Your prompt reply will be highly appreciated and thank you for your help. You can also collect some tips from your friends there. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
3.Dear George,
Knowing that you have a great passion for Chinese culture, I’m writing to invite you to participate in the Chinese Speaking Competition organized by our school.
Scheduled to be held on January 20 in the school’s lecture hall, the competition focuses on the theme of “first impression of China”. Undoubtedly, your fluent Chinese, excellent speaking skills, and especially profound knowledge of China will never fail to impress the audience. So, if you’re interested, please sign up on the school’s website before January 15.
Looking forward to your wonderful presentation.
Yours,
Li Hua
4.Dear Terry,
How are you doing? In your last letter, you asked me about being a guest to a Chinese friend’s home. Now, I am writing to inform you of some relevant details.
To begin with, according to our tradition, you are supposed to arrive early, so that you can help the family prepare the dinner, which is meaningful and interesting. Besides, you’d better bring some gifts, like a book or a Chinese knot. What’s more, when you are enjoying the meal, you need to avoid making noises while chewing food.
Hopefully, these suggestions would be helpful for you. I have the confidence that you will have a great time.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
5.Hi Leslie,
I’m writing to tell you about the Chinese class next week.
Let’s meet at two Tuesday afternoons at the coffee shop near my school again. I plan to help you study some poems of the Tang Dynasty, which is an important part of Chinese civilization. Many of the Tang poems have greatly influenced Chinese literature. And we learned them at a young age. I’ll help you read and understand the selected poems before we have a discussion of them. To make it easier, I suggest you study and get some knowledge of the Tang dynasty in advance.
See you then!
Best,
Li Hua
6.Dear Henry，
I ’m Li Hua, one of your students in your cultural class. I know you’re interested in one of Chinese traditional art forms — papercutting. So I invite you to attend an exhibition of it.
It’ll be held from June 10 to July 10 this year and the opening time is from 9：00 am to 7：00 pm from Monday to Saturday and the place of the exhibition is at the City Gallery, which is located at 118, Jian Guo Road, Hai Dian District. Shall we go there together this Friday afternoon? I will meet you at 2：00 pm at the teaching building gate if you like.
You know we Chinese have a lot of traditional art forms, of which papercutting is one of the most popular. In the exhibition, you will enjoy many special kinds of papercuttings. Maybe you can learn one or two skills of the cutting.
Looking forward to your early reply.
Regards,
Li Hua
7.Dear Mr. Hall,
I’m writing to invite you to come to my home to celebrate the Spring Festival on January 19.
It’s traditionally a time for family reunion, so my parents and my brother will all be there. We’ll make dumplings together and have a big dinner. We’ll also play card games and watch the Spring Festival Gala on TV. You may even get a gift from my parents.
If you’re able to come, I’ll go and pick you up at your place.
Best,

8.Dear Chris, From your letter, I learn that you are very much interested in Chinese Poetry Competition and hope to know more about it. Meanwhile you also expressed your hope to have more access to chinese culture.I deeply appreciate your love for Chinese culture.
After Chinese Poetry Competition was aired, it triggered a strong reaction nation-wide. Students from both middle schools and universities are enthusiastic about poetry. They are trying to learn not only the moder poetry but aslo the ancient poetry from Tang and Song dynasity. Even my parents are reading poems after their everyday work. As to the ways to learn Chinese culture, there are many access to it. You can either borrow the relative books from library or seach them online. You can also join the discussion on social media or even set up a forum of your own.
I hope the information in this letter is helpful to you and sincerely wish you could make great progress in your study on Chinese culture.
9.Dear Jim,
It’s great to hear from you. I feel proud knowing your interest in Chinese history.
As for my favorite figure in Chinese history, it must be Wei Yuan, a great thinker in the late Qing Dynasty. He, in his book, Haiguo Tuzhi (Maps and Records of the World), introduced modern technologies and ideas to China. That opened our eyes to the world. In fact, he inspires me to major in English in college, to be a bridge between China and the world.
Interested in knowing more? I can find you some books! Just let me know.
Yours,
Li Hua
10.Dear Lucy,
I’d like to invite you to join us for a visit to the nearby nursing home next Saturday for the Double Ninth Festival.
It is the day for the elderly in our culture. We’ll go and make dumplings and cakes with the elderly people there. We’ll also spend some fun time together singing, dancing and playing games, which we hope will make them happy. We should be back around 4 o’clock in the afternoon. If you are able to come with us, please let us know and we’ll wait for you at the gate at 9 in the morning.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
11.Dear Jim,
I’m writing to tell you my exciting plan for the summer holiday. I want to join a Dragon Boat Training Camp. I wonder if you’d like to go with me.
This camp will open on July 20th.It offers teenagers like you and me a chance to enjoy sports and learn about Chinese culture. If you are interested in it, let me know and I’ll send you more information.
Hope to meet you at the training camp this summer.
12.Dear Tom,
How are you? I wonder if you could sell some Chinese knots for me.
I made them myself with red silk threads, cloth and other materials. They look really beautiful in the shape of a diamond, about 5 inches long and 4 inches wide. In China, these knots stand for friendship, love and good luck. People can either give them as gifts to friends or hang them in their houses. They are only 12.99 US dollars each.
If anyone wants to know more about the knots, let them write to me. Also, do let me know if you need further information. Thank you!

13.The Mid- Autumn Festival
The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th of the eighth month of our Chinese lunar calendar.
As one of the traditional Chinese festivals, it has been enjoying great popularity in our country. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy we are, we will try to come home for the celebration. The moon that night looks the brightest in the whole lunar month. What we love most is the time we enjoy the full moon together. With the beautiful moon up in the sky, we sit together and eat moon cakes and fruit, sharing our stories.
In addition to these traditional activities, we have a wider range of choices such as travelling and visiting our relatives or friends.
14.Dear Chris,
I have good news to tell you. A Shaoxing Opera named Butterfly Lovers will be on show in Tianjin Grand Theater, which was just completed, at 2:00 p.m. on August 5th. It is because I know you like the culture of China, especially drama, that I would like to invite you to admire it.
As we all know, Butterfly Lovers is a traditional drama, telling about two young person’s moving love story. After watching it, shall we visit some places nearby, such as the art museum, in which lots of rich art will appeal to you enormously?
I would be very glad if you come. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Jin
15.Dear Jane,
Glad to hear from you and you’re welcome to China in July. The following are some Chinese customs.
Firstly, we greet each other by saying “Hello” or asking such questions as “Where are you going?” or “Are you busy?” to express our care. Secondly, when praised, we reply with “Oh, no!” or “I’m over-praised” to show good manners. Next, when receiving a gift, we usually say “It’s unnecessary” besides “Thanks” to show politeness and then put it away. Finally, at dinner parties, we talk loudly and touch glasses when drinking to someone’s health or success to show that we’re warm. Anyhow, different cultures, different customs. If you “Do as the Romans do when in Rome”, you’ll enjoy more of your stay here.
I hope what’s mentioned above might be helpful and wish you a good journey.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
