亲爱的.杰克，

　　我很高兴知道你对中国书法感兴趣。我很高兴告诉你如何学习中国书法。

　　As we all know, the four treasures of the study are writing brush, ink, paper and ink stone, which are essential to learn Chinese calligraphy. As to the way to learn it, I think, for one thing, you may study the basic structure of each Chinese character step by step;for another, choosing a good model book to copy is of great benefit to you.

　　众所周知，文房四宝是笔墨纸砚，是学习中国书法必不可少的。至于学习的方法，我想，一方面，你可以一步一步地学习每个汉字的基本结构；另一方面，选择一本好的范本，对你很有好处。

　　Chinese calligraphy is a fine art of the excellent traditional cultures in China. Not only does it do good to health, but also it can cultivate morality and purify our souls.

　　中国书法是中国优秀传统文化的精品。它不仅有益于健康，而且可以陶冶道德，净化我们的灵魂。

　　Hoping you can come to China to enjoy it personally.
