　　Hello, Tom,

　　How are you doing? I'm honored to be invited to my foreign teacher's this weekend.Invited to pay a visit to a foreigner for the first time, I'm worried that some of my manners may appear impolite in her eyes due to cultural difference. So I'm asking for your advice.

　　Would you please tell me some rules of etiquette needed to obey? As a student of hers, I think it's good manners to bring a gift for her. I'd appreciate it if you could tell me what kind of present I should take. Additionally, do you think it's necessary for me to dress up for the visit?

　　Under your guidance, I believe I will have a good time.

　　Looking forward to your early reply.

　　Yours truly,

　　Li Hua

　　你好,汤姆,

　　最近好吗?我很荣幸这个周末被邀请到自己外教家做客。因为第一次被邀请去拜访一个外国人，所以我担心由于文化差异，自己的一些举止可能在她的眼中显得不礼貌。因此我需要征求你的建议。

　　你能告诉我一些需要遵守的礼仪规则吗?作为她的学生，我认为给她带礼物是最基本的礼仪。如果你能告诉我应该带什么样的礼物，我将不胜感激。另外，你认为我有必要打扮一下去拜访吗?

　　有你的建议，我会很开心。

　　期待你早日回复。
