Dear_Chris，

　　I_have_good_news_to_tell_you．The masterpiece of the famous Shaoxing Opera-Butterfly Lovers will be put on at 2 o'clock p．m., Aug.5th in Tianjin Grand Theater. I'm looking forward to your showing up in the theater, for, as far as I know，you are enthusiastic about Chinese traditional culture, particularly Chinese opera. I'm certain that you will devote yourself to watching it at that time and be attracted by its wonderful and moving plot.

　　After the performance，I'm eager to show you around some places of interest, or some culture centers of Tianjin, such as the museum and the art gallery.

　　I will appreciate it if you immediately make an reply to me. And I sincerely long to meet you early.

　　Yours，
