【Writing 1】
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,
