One possible version;
Dear Helen.
Let me tell you something about the supermarkets near our school. Yongxing Super market is large and it has all kinds of things. It is the closest to our school. But students hardly shop there bemuse things are pretty expensive. Tiny Supermarket is the cheapest. However, It is a little far from our school and the service is the worst. Xinhua Supermarket is more popular than the other two. It has the best service and the food is both fresh and cheap, I think Xinhua Supermarket is the best of the three. I hope you'll enjoy shopping there.
Yours.
Li Hua
