Dear Mike
I'm glad to learn that you have passed the preliminary competition of the "Chinese Bridge"Chinese Proficiency Competition for Foreign High School Students,but regretful to hear that you intend to quit the semi-final.
It's true that only a few can compete in the finals,but no one will doubt that they all benefit from the competition itself.I believe by competing,you'll open your mind and build up your self-confidence,which in turn will contribute to your all-round development.
It's a good chance to challenge yourself and show your talents.By making full use of your spare time,seeking aid from teachers,and practicing over and over again,you'll surely stand out in the competition.
Now that you've proved yourself to be better than most of the other candidates.never miss out on any possible success.
Looking forward to your good news.
Yours
Li Hua
