请帮我把这封信翻译成英文，谢谢！

Question

很开心收到你的来信！圣诞节由于身体不太舒服，所以没有出去游玩，不过我觉得节日的真谛并不在人群中，而是内心的满足与幸福，所以我一个人在学校看书，也觉得很满足

从你的来信中，我感受到了你对我们中国朋友的友好，也感受到了你对自己国家的热爱。虽然两个国家有如此多不同，但是人们的友好都是相似的，我从电影中看到的贵国的人与事，都让人亲切向往

我的确是一名大学新生，所以交际并不广阔。不像你正在做一份这么有意义的工作，目前我只能把读书放到首要位置。但我很钦佩你，能够做这样一份伟大的事业

我是个很平凡的人，如果说有什么爱好，那大概就是阅读和电影，读书让人明智，电影让人思考

至于如何学习中文，我给你以下三个建议

1.多与中国朋友进行一些简单的交谈

2.可以买一些幼儿用的识字书或者卡片

3.看一些中国电影

同样也祝福你圣诞快乐！期待着你的回信

Answer 1

【应该是第一次给这个老外回信吧。其实没必要这么认真的。不用上来就这么推心置腹的谈人生哲学（如第二段 有关内心不内心的）。因此对第二段稍作了修改。如果只是简单跟人家交个朋友的话，似乎没必要把所有事都拉到民族关系上。所以第三段似乎意义不大。当然，篡改了不少原作。如果不喜欢，大可不必采纳。】

你好。很开心收到你的来信！
Hello there. It is nice to hear from you！

圣诞节由于我身体不太舒服，所以不打算出去玩. 但也不全是坏事。我准备留在宿舍，看本书。也许这比在酒吧里消磨时间来得好。
Unfortunately, due to my poor health, I am not going out this Christmas. But I guess it's not all bad. I am going to stay in the dorm and try to read a book. I suppose it might be a better way to waste my time than going to a pub or something.

如你所说我是大一新生。目前我正迎接新的生活（也就是忙着结交朋友）【窃以为：最好不要说什么交际圈小，就说你在努力就找朋友就好了。在老外听起来才比较正常。符合西方人逻辑点吧。】不过我十分欣赏你的工作。是个很不错的事业。
As you said, I am a freshman. Currently, I am still working on fitting into my new life (and I trust you understand by that I meant socializing) but of course, study is always my first priority .However, I am pretty amazed by your job and it is such a great thing that you are doing.

谈到喜欢，我挺爱看书，看电影的。我常常反思这些故事，而这些反思对我的日常生活又有帮助。
Speaking of hobbies, I quite like reading and watching movies. I tend to reflect on what happens in the stories and these reflections really help me with my own life.
【读书让人明智，电影让人思考~~~~又这么哲理】【窃又以为：我是个很平凡的人。这种谦虚有点儿让人摸不着头脑。他很可能会觉得是他说错了什么。得罪了你。】

至于如何学习中文，我给你以下三个建议
As for how to learn Chinese, here are three advices:

1尽量讲中文. 并且我也会十分愿意帮助你。
1.Speak Chinese as often as possible and keep in mind, I would be more than willing to help.

2.用记忆卡。你可以在任何书店里的‘幼教’一览里买到
2. Use cue cards. You can get them from any bookshops under ‘early learners’.

3.看中国电影并且要看字幕
3. Watch Chinese movies and of course, with subtitles on

同样也祝福你圣诞快乐！期待着你的回信
Merry Christmas to you too and looking forward to your reply.

It is so nice to hear from you! I did not feel well at Christmas time, so didn't go out much. I feel that the true holiday spirit will not be found in the crowd, but the blessing and self-content from the inside. I was happy being alone at school and did some reading.
From your letter, I can feel your passion to our countrymen, and your love of your own country. Although the two countries are very different, people’s compassions are all alike. I learned from the movies that your people are very friendly and adorable.
I am a college freshman who don't have a lot of friends. In the meantime, I will only concentrate at the school. I admire that you have such a great career. Your job is a meaningful mission.
I'm a very ordinary person who has only 2 hobbies: reading and movies. Reading makes a man wise and movies make a man think.

1. Practice Chinese by talking with Chinese friends
2. Get some Chinese children's books or flash cards

和原文有点不同。删加了不同的部分，我觉得这样说更能表达明白意思。有个别错别字吧。大小写没区分。
