参考范文
Dear Tom,
It is nice to receive your e-mail. Now I’d like to tell you something about the
Palace Museum.
The Palace Museum, also referred to as the Forbidden City,is a fascinating
tourist attraction. It dates back to the Ming Dynasty. It took nearly 14 years to build
and was completed in 1420. As the largest museum in China, the Palace Museum
holds precious treasures which have a history of thousands of years. It’s not
surprising that its temples and palaces amount to 9,999 because nine is
traditionally considered as a lucky number by Chinese people. Middle school
students from all over our country now can visit it free of charge every Tuesday.
I do hope you can come to China and take a look at this museum with your
own eyes. I’m sure you are more than likely to be attracted.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
