【答案】Dear John,
I am writing to reply to your email regarding the Chinese idiom story competition you are going to participate in. It would be my great pleasure to help you prepare for the contest.
I would like to offer some suggestions before we meet. Firstly, as there are a great number of idioms to choose from, I recommend the most commonly used ones that come from interesting stories. Additionally, many idioms found roots in ancient myths or historical facts. Thus, I advise fully researching their meanings and origins to gain an instructive and fascinating insight into the cultural history of China. In this way, your storytelling will be highly impressive and appealing.
I hope the suggestions above can be of some help to you. Could you please tell me when and where you would like to meet? I look forward to further discussion with you.
Yours,
Li Hua
