Dear Jack,
How is life treating you? I have received your last letter and also the photo in it. Now I’m writing to you to express my feelings after seeing the picture.
I just couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw you, a teenager who had a cigarette in his hand, in the picture. Many reasons are reasonable enough to discourage you from smoking. First and foremost, it is obvious that a smoking boy is likely to give a bad impression on other people. Additionally, it goes without saying that the smoke and smell given off by a cigarette always make the public uncomfortable. Last but not least, nothing can alter the fact that smoking will do harm to your own.
Here are several suggestions on giving up smoking. To begin with, a strong will is needed. What’s more, you can do some exercises when you are bored instead of smoking. Finally, you are supposed to get out of reach of the cigarettes with all your might. Hopefully these mentioned above will be of great help.
You are a friend that I value so much, and I hope that you are ever-healthy. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
LiHua

Dear Jack,
How is life treating you? I have received your last letter and also the photo with(改为with更地道) it. Now I’m
writing
to
you to
express my
feelings after seeing the picture.
I just(活用副词,很好,就放在这个位置) couldn’t believe my eyes
when I saw you, a teenager who had a cigarette in his hand,(非常自然的“同位语+定语从句”的帅气用法) in the picture. Many reasons are reasonable enough to discourage you from smoking. First and foremost, it is obvious that a smoking boy is likely to give a bad impression on other people. Additionally, it goes without saying that the smoke and smell given off by a cigarette always make the public uncomfortable. Last but not least, nothing can alter the fact that smoking will do harm to yourself(此处应为反身代词). (三个解释非常精彩,语言也很地道,但是这三个句子到底在解释哪个主题句呢?建议在Many reasons 这句话前面再加上一个简洁明快的主题句,如In my opinion, smoking is so bad a habit that you should give it
up as soon as possible.)
Here are several suggestions on giving up smoking. To begin with, a strong will is undoubtedly needed. What’s more, you can do some exercises when you are bored instead of smoking. Finally, you are supposed to get out of reach of the cigarettes with all your might. Hopefully these suggestions mentioned above will be of great help. (太喜欢这种清晰的结构了, T-E结构绝对是议论性段落的不二法门,这篇28分的作文再次印证了这一观点。)
You are a friend that I value so much, and I hope that you are ever-healthy. Looking forward to your early reply. (结尾段的客套话写了两个:1、表达希望,2、期待回信。相当的自然。)
Yours,
LiHua
