答案

Dear David,
I’m writing the letter to apologize that I can’t go to America to see you this winter holiday. I promised to visit you and bring you some traditional things of China such as paper-cutting and Beijing Opera Facial Masks. But I’m afraid I can’t keep my word. One reason is that my cousin’s wedding is planned for this Spring Festival. Of course, I can’t miss it. Another reason is that there will be an important English speech contest. I will participate in it on behalf of my school. I have to prepare for it.
To express my sincere apology, I will send the paper-cutting and Beijing Opera Facial Masks to you by airmail. And if you are free, nothing will be better if you can come to China to attend a traditional wedding. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.
I do hope you can forgive me.
Yours sincerely
Li Hua
