参考范文
Dear Prof. Smith,
I am extremely honored to accept your invitation of giving a presentation to a host of foreign students on Chinese culture.
Here are the key points of my presentation. First of all, compared with Westerners, the Chinese people paid more attention to the harmonious relation between human beings and nature. “Nature and Man are one” is a familiar statement in traditional Chinese ideology. In addition, much emphasis is laid upon the moral cultivation and temper refinement as well as the spiritual enlightenmenton the part of individual rather than upon the logic reasoning.
My appreciation to you for your generous help is beyond words. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming

尊敬的史密斯教授：
我非常荣幸地接受您的邀请，为一些留学生进行一场关于中国文化的报告。
下面是这次报告的要点。首先，中国人注重人与自然的和谐。在中国传统思想中，“天人合一”是一个著名的话题。其次，中国传统思想更注重个人修养的提升，更关注“修身养性”，更为重视智慧的体悟而对逻辑推理不是特别在意。
我对您慷慨帮助的感谢难以言表。盼即赐复。
您真诚的，
李明
