参考词汇：中国书法展Chinese Calligraphy Exhibition

 

One possible version：

Dear Peter，

Thanks for inviting me to your Chinese Calligraphy exhibition. I truly appreciate all your devotion and achievement, which will surely contribute to the spread of Chinese culture.

However, it's a great pity that I can't attend it that day for I have an important exam to take. I have been making preparations for it for a long time, and I really can't afford to fail. The exam will determine whether I can be admitted to a graduate program or not. I'm sure you can understand my situation.

Wish your exhibition a great success!

Yours，

Li Hua
