Dear Sir or Madam，

One of the teachers at my school in New York tells me that your school has summer courses. I am planning to go to Beijing next summer and would like to take a short one-month course.

I am 18 years old and have been studying Chinese for six years. I was born in the USA and have never been to China before. I am going to study Chinese at the university. I think the course will help me improve my Chinese.

Could you send me a catalogue（目录）and application form（申请表）？I would also like information about Beijing and other places nearby. I hope to do some travelling when the course is over.

Thank you！I am looking forward to your reply.

Very truly yours，

Jim Green

Dear Sir or Madam,

Last Thursday, I traveled on the 8:00 a.m. train from Glasgow to London King’s Cross and I was quite angry about the service of your station.

The train didn’t come on time and it was forty minutes late when it left Glasgow. A man at the station said sorry to us, but he didn’t give us any reasons for the delay (误点). We then had further delays on the way and had to wait another thirty minutes. So I missed my plane from London to Frankfurt and had to wait for several hours.

What’s more (更重要的是), the service on the train was quite poor. The trip took more than five hours. Unluckily, we could buy nothing but some soft drinks on the train. Worst of all, something was wrong with the air conditioning and it got hotter and hotter in the train. Before we arrived in King’s Cross, the temperature was over 40℃.

Because of your poor service, I think you should pay me compensation (赔偿).

I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours, David Robertson

Dear Sir or Madam，

Last Thursday， I traveled on the 8:00 a.m. train from Glasgow to London King’s Cross and I was quite angry with the service of your company.

The train didn’t come on time and it was forty minutes late when it left Glasgow. A man at the station said sorry to us， but he didn’t give us any reasons for the delay (误点) . We then had further delays on the way and had to wait another thirty minutes. As a result， I missed my plane from London to Frankfurt and had to wait for several hours.

What’s more， the service on the train was also very poor. The trip took more than five hours. Unluckily， we could buy nothing but some soft drinks on the train. Worst of all， something was wrong with the air conditioning (空调系统) and it got hotter and hotter in the train. Before we reached King’s Cross， the temperature was over 40°C.

Because of your poor service， I feel you should pay me compensation (赔偿).

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully

David Roberson
