Dear Chris,

I’m glad to hear from you. Knowing you are interested in the program broadcasting in CCTV 1, I would like to simply introduce it now.

Enjoy the Beautiful Chinese Scenery, which claims to encourage people to know more about traditional China has been successfully held on CCTV and has attracted lots of people who are interested in China. The program introduces the beautiful scenery, geographical culture and customs all over the country. In your letter, you mentioned that you were eager to know more about Chinese culture. 

I think the best way is to read some relevant books and to use media resources. I’d like to recommend a book called Read Poetry and Learn History which is suitable for the foreigners to know more about Chinese geography, history and culture. The poems of the books can give readers vivid pictures of the life of the ancient Chinese and they can also improve your appreciation of Chinese.

I think the book is a good choice for you. I believe you can improve your understanding about language and culture easily and efficiently, In addition, I suggested that you should visit some places of China to feel the Chinese culture personally. As the ancient Chinese saying goes, man who travels far knows more.

I’m looking forward to your coming.
