Dear Tom，
I'm more than happier that you're interested in Chinese culture．Now let me tell you something about a Dragon Boat Festival．
It's a traditional Chinese festival falling in the 5th day of the 5th month of the Chinese lunar calendar．It's widely believed that the festival held in memory the great poet Qu Yuan，who lived in ancient times．Disappointed with the government，he drowned him in the Miluo River．
The festival is celebrated by boat racing，with the boats building in the shape of dragons．Competing teams row their boats forward to the drumbeat，race to reach the finishing end first．We also have the custom of eating zongzi，wrapped with bamboo leaf．It's very popularly among Chinese people．
If you will want to know about other Chinese traditional festivals，just write to me．
Yours，
Li Hua．

解析：
1．happier改为happy 考查形容词．more than 在形容词前，意为"非常"，后接形容词原级．
2．a改为the 考查冠词．专有名词Dragon Boat Festival用定冠词the修饰．
3．in改为on 考查介词．表示特定的某一天用介词on．
4． 加is 考查动词语态．主语the festival 和谓语动词held 之间是被动关系，且表示一般事实，用一般现在时的被动语态，且主语是单数，助动词用is．
5．加of 考查固定搭配．in memory of意为"作为对某人的纪念"，是固定搭配．
6．him改为himself 考查代词．drown oneself in a river意为"投河"，是固定搭配．
7．building改为built 考查过去分词．the boats与build之间是动宾关系，用过去分词作宾语补足语．
8．race改为racing 考查现在分词．competing teams与race之间是主谓关系，用现在分词作状语．
9．leaf改为leaves 考查名词复数．leaf是可数名词，根据上下文语境，要用复数形式．
10．popularly改为popular 考查形容词．be动词后用形容词作表语．
11．去掉will 考查动词时态．在条件状语从句中，从句用一般现在时代替一般将来时．
点评 高考短文改错题的形式有说明文，短文故事，书信等，具有很强的实用性．短文的内容和语言都符合高中学生的实际，从表面上看类似一篇学生习作．首先，通读全文，了解短文大意，把握全篇的时态、人称及行文逻辑，在通读全文时把一些容易的错误先改好，再进行逐句改错．其次，要进行逐个句子的改错．这是要对文中的词法、句法和语篇着重分析和特别注意．最后把改好的短文再阅读一遍，检查答案是否正确，感觉是否还有不妥之处，最终形成定稿．

The person's name is just too long and difficult to remember．Let's be honest，Madonna Louise Ciccone is not as easy to remember as just （35）F"Madonna"．And short names are easier to remember．William Bradley became Brad Pitt and Edson Arantes do Nascimento became Pele．
Sometimes names are changed for marketing purpose．For example，if a name sounds too foreign，it may be changed to something that is more （36）I in a market．So in the film world，Ramon Estevez （37）C the name Martin Sheen．Or maybe the artist's real name doesn't sound very attractive---Chad Everett does sound a lot better than Raymond Cramton!
Artists sometimes choose the name of someone they admire．Robert Zimmerman changed his name to Bob Dylan because of his （38）Bfor the Welsh poet，Dylan Thomas．
Another reason may be （39）G：in the past，women found it very difficult to become a well-received writer．To avoid this situation，they sometimes gave themselves men's name，so the English author Mary Ann Evans consequently became George Eliot，and she did get her books （40）H!
