　　Dear Jack,

　　Thanks for your congratulation! Since you asked for advice on translation, I’d like to offer several conducive proposals as follows.

　　First of all, while quite a number of students think they’re forced to learn translation——merely for English test, you should learn it for some other purposes like the usefulness other than examination itself. What is more, for purpose of becoming an outstanding translator, it is vital to not only appreciate the beauty and perfection of the language and literature in both English and Chinese, but also arouse your great interest in exploring something deeper in this field.

　　I’m sure you’ll be an excellent translator. Looking forward to your reply!

　　Yours,

　　Li Ming
