答案： One possible version:
Dear David,
I'd like to give you some advice.
Among all the colours, I think blue is the most suitable. Here are the reasons. First, blue may be a colour for boys. As far as I know, most boys prefer the colour blue. Second, blue is a calm colour. It can bring peace to our mind and body. The bedroom is a place for people to have a rest, so painting it blue is certainly a great idea. Third, blue reminds people of the sky and the sea. So it may make your room look larger. Other colours like light green and white are also good choices, since green can make you energetic and white can make you feel comfortable.
I hope my advice is helpful.
Yours sincerely,
Zhang Ming
