求一个英语句子分析

I am glad to receive your letter asking for my advice on how to learn chinese well。
请问为什么用asking？我知道是非谓语，主动时候用ing，那么难道letter可以主动ask？？？求解释

Answer 1

这个相当于汉语的【拟人】手法， 可以的。等于 which asks

再如：
Berlin held a celebration of his birthday
= A celebration of his birthday was held in Berlin （柏林）

The following year saw the death of both his sisters.
第二年他的两个姐姐都死了。

Answer 2

【I am glad to receive your letter 】｛asking for my advice｝ on how to learn chinese well。中的asking for my advice的主语是you 即I am glad to receive your letter which you ask for my advice on how to learn chinese well。

追问

按你说的 I am glad to receive your letter which you ask for my advice on how to learn chinese well。是个定语从句，缺地点状语，应该用where或in which吧？

追答

这里没有用地点状语的必要啊，
引导地点状语从句是用where或in which没错

追问

你错了，定语从句一定缺成分，就应该用in which，即you ask for my advice on how to learn chinese well in the letter，即in which替代了in the letter，故in which

追答

sorry粗心了
I am glad to receive your letter in which you asked for my advice on how to learn chinese well。
