假定你是李平，请用英语写一封e-mail给美国的朋友Tom, 就Tom的来信作答：
Tom的来信如下：
Dec. 20, 2006 Dear Li Ping,
Recently I saw a Chinese film called Shao Lin Temple. It’s very interesting. I’m attracted by the Chinese Wushu in the film and want to learn it myself. But I have some questions that need your help.
First, I’ve heard that it is very difficult to learn Chinese Wushu, is it true? Second, now I’m 18 years old. Is it too late for me to learn Chinese Wushu? Third, in America, there is no Wushu master, so I’ve decided to go to China to learn it. Will you please find me a real Wushu master to teach me? And last, how long will it take to learn Chinese Wushu? Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours, Tom 注意e-mail的格式。
One possible version:
Date: Jan. 20, 2007 From: Li Ping To: Tom Subject: Learning Chinese Wushu Dear Tom,
Glad to hear from you. Chinese Wushu is indeed very interesting. If you often practise it, it will keep you healthy.
Just as people say, Chinese Wushu is difficult to learn. If you really want to learn it, you should have a strong will and be ready to go through many hardships. It’s better to learn Chinese Wushu at an early age. But as the saying goes “it’s never too late to learn”. So I think you can learn it though you are 18 years old. I’ve heard that some Chinese Wushu masters have been in America to teach people Wushu. You can learn from them. If you’re determined to learn it in China, I can find you one
or two good masters. I think it is really hard to answer your last question. Some people can learn to practise it in just two or three years. But some will spend over ten years to do so. It all depends.
Hope my answers will be of some help to you. If you have any more questions, write to me and I’ll try my best to help you.
Best wishes.
Yours, Li Ping
