Answer

One possible version：

Dear Xiao Ming

Glad to write to you! Last time I told you that I wanted to be a volunteer in the 2010 Shanghai Expo. These days I am attending some training courses and learn that in order to be a good volunteer, we should learn about body language as well as foreign languages. I find it interesting. I’d like to share it with you.

As we all know, every culture has its own body language. Take greetings for example, the French are open-minded, they shake hands and kiss each other on each cheek when they meet people they know. Men from Middle East and other Muslim countries often stand close to other men to talk, but they will never touch women, they just nod at women. In general, people all over the world now greet each other by shaking hands, but the Japanese prefer to bow.

……

（I think none of these actions is either good or bad, however, studying it will help reduce misunderstanding between peoples and avoid the difficulties in communication.）

So much for these, I must stop now. Looking forward to your letter.

Yours，

XiaoGang
