Answer

Dear Tom:

I am writing to invite you to attend a lecture about the cultural differences between the western and the eastern countries.

This lecture will be held by our school at the lecture hall on Friday evening, from 7 pm to 9 pm. Since the lecture is about the similarities and differences between western and eastern cultures, I’m sure you will be interested in it. What’s more, the professor who gives the lecture will set aside 30 minutes to answer all the questions raised by us students, which will make you have a better understanding of cultural differences.

Would you please drop me a line to let me know if you can come? Look forward to your early reply.

Yours,

Li Hua
