It was the first time that I had seen the Tower or any of the other famous sights. If Id gone alone, I couldnt have seen nearly as much, because I wouldnt have known my

2、 way about. The weather was splendid on that day, which I thought was rare. I still remember some people told me that in Britain there was weather and no climate. During the same day, it might snow in the morning, rain at noon, shine in the afternoon and be windy before the night falls. So I think I

3、 was lucky. I think the river trip was the best thing of all. London really came alive for me as we saw it from the Thames during that wonderful journey down to Greenwich. It was all tremendously exciting a day that I shall never forget. Thank you for giving me such a great birthday treat. Yours sin

4、cerely, Linda Chen Sample 2 20 July 2006 Dear Mr. Wang, Thank you for taking the time to write your wonderful letter in support of MCEA (Maywood Chinese Education Association). Your letter clearly articulates all the major reasons children in Maywood will benefit from studying the Chinese language a

5、s part of their elementary school education. It provides invaluable support that will help making bilingual Chinese education a reality in Maywood public schools. Although MCEA would like to see Palo Alto public schools implement the first bilingual Chinese kindergarten class in September of 2006, w

6、e have learned that the school district must take the time to understand how a new program will affect existing educational offerings, and to validate community interest. Nevertheless, MCEA, with more than 70 members, will continue to actively promote bilingual Chinese education in the Palo Alto pub

7、lic schools and will keep you apprised of the progress we make. Thanks again for sending a letter in support of MCEA. We will continue to do all we can to realize this program both for families of Chinese descent and those with a general interest in participating in the growing economic power of Chi

9、o glad that you have been able (at last! ) to arrange a holiday in Australia. As I fear I wont be able to meet you at the airport when you arrive, nor will I be able to be home until later in the afternoon, so here are some instructions and suggestions. There is a bus from the airport to the city. I

10、t is much cheaper than a cab. Take the bus to the city and ask to get off at Town Hall railway station. To get to my place in the eastern suburbs you have three options. You can either take a cab, a bus or the train. I suggest you take the train, since the airport bus will leave you right at the sta

11、tion. Get off at Cliff Station. From there you can either walk to my place (about ten minutes) or take a taxi. Probably you should take a taxi as you will have luggage. When you arrive at my flat, ring the intercom for Flat 2. My friend Lillian will be at home and she will open the front door for yo

12、u and let you into my flat. Presumably you will be tired and want to sleep. But if you feel like some exercise after that long flight, you could stroll down to Cooper Park, which is only ten minutes away you can see it from the window. Cheers and looking forward to seeing you. Yours sincerely, Annie

13、 P.S. I will leave something for breakfast in the fridge. Help yourself to anything you want. Useful Expressions: Here are some instructions and suggestions.

15、I should like to apply to be a member of the Amazon Expedition team. I am twenty-three years old and have an honors degree in Botany from Bath University. Since leaving university I have been working in a research laboratory but my contract comes to an end in six weeks. I would particularly like to

16、join the expedition for the opportunity it would give me to study the plant life of the area. I enjoy several outdoor activities including rowing and rock climbing and I consider myself to be both fit and healthy enough to undertake such an expedition. If you would like me to attend an interview, I

17、would be able to come at any time convenient to you, (J1) my employers have agreed to give me time off for the purpose. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully, Lily Ma Sample 2 20 June 2006 Dear Sir, I noticed an ad. In the paper today you said you were looking for people to join your

18、expedition team. It sounded as if it might be fun so Im writing to say Id like to come along. About myself: I left school at 16 because I wanted to earn a bit of money. After that I got a few part-time jobs as a waiter, etc. But I didnt stick to any of them for long. Recently Ive been doing a bit of

19、 hitch-hiking round Europe so Ive had some experience of traveling the hard way which should come in handy on the expedition youre planning. By the way, Im a great guitarist so I can keep you all amused round the campfire at night. Let me know when I can call in for a chat about dates and other deta

20、ils, etc. Yours, David Smith Sample Writing 3: 12 May 2006 Dear Sir, I am writing to apply for a British Council scholarship to study in Britain. I did my five years basic training in medicine at Shanghai University. After this I successfully completed a one-year postgraduate course in Ophthalmology

21、 at the Peoples General Hospital, where I am at present serving a two-year probation in the Eye Clinic. As a result of the publication in 2003 of my article in New Scientist entitled Soft and Rigid Contact Lenses , which was based on a survey of 37 patients over 6 months, I made contact with Dr. Li

22、Ming of the Capital Hospital and Dr. Ma Li of the University College Hospital. I have received their help and advice with my current research project, which is a two-year survey of the acceptance of various types of contact lenses in 200 patients. Despite their help, I feel that I cannot make real p

23、rogress in this field unless I can actually have day-to-day contact with these specialists. I would therefore like to continue my research at either the Capital Hospital or the UCH as soon as my probationary period here is completed, and I would like to study in Britain for two years. I enclose a de

24、tailed curriculum vitae and an offprint of my article, together with two letters of recommendation from Dr. Li Ming and Dr. Ma Li. Yours faithfully, Lily Chen Sample Writing 4 22 October 2004 Dear Sir, I would like to apply for the post of Works Manager, which was advertised in The Guardian of I2 Oc

25、tober 2004. I feel that my qualifications and experience are ideally suited for the position. I was born in 1968, and I went to school from 1973 to 1988. In 1987 I took the General Certificate of Education, and I got good grades in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. After leaving school, I attended

26、 the Orient Technical College, where I first studied Fiber Technology and Color Chemistry; later I studied other subjects related to textile manufacture, and in 1991 I obtained the Diploma in Textiles. After completing my studies, I joined the Top Clothing Company where I worked until 1996. In that

27、year I moved to Prior Productions, who was pleased with my work, and as a result, in 1998, I was promoted to Assistant Works Manager there. I enjoy my work, and I am prepared to work hard. Moreover, I am sure that Prior Productions would give me an excellent reference. I therefore feel that my appli

28、cation deserves your serious consideration. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully, Mary Ma Useful Expressions: I would like to apply for . . . I wish to apply for the position of . . . If you need any other information concerning my background, . . . I am writing to you to apply for a

29、dmittance to your university as a visiting scholar. I hope it would be possible for me to take some training courses and work in your laboratory. I believe that with your help I would make progress in my career. Should you think favorably of my application, kindly grant me an interview. An early res

30、ponse will be very much appreciated. Enclosed please find a resume and a list of my publications. 四、投訴/抱怨信 Sample 1 15 April 2006 Dear Sir, I saw your advertisement for the perfect lighter in Sunday Times last week and immediately sent off a 2 postal order and the completed form for the lighter. Ima

31、gine my surprise when all I got in return was a box of matches! I could understand a mistake. I might even pardon a joke. But in this case, your advertisement is a deliberate lie since a friend of mine who also sent the coupon got the same result. I think its a shame to promise an economical lighter

32、 when in fact you are not selling a lighter a1 all. Instead of saying it works quickly, you should admit that you are offering matches. And what about only 2: I usually pay 10 pennies for a box of matches, and they are often given away free. I regard your advertisement as a serious deception and dem

33、and that you send me my money back immediately. Otherwise I will take active steps to make sure the Consumers Association hear about it. Yours faithfully, Peter Li Sample Writing 2: 12 March 2006 Dear Sir, I am highly disappointed in the proposed 2004-05 budget cuts to educa1ion. Taking away basic a

34、id status and slashing our school budgets is a recipe for educational disaster in our school. The future lies with our children. They must have access to high quality educa1ion. My husband and I have worked hard to be able to live in a school district that provides high quality education for our chi

35、ldren. Cutting funding in districts like ours will have a negative impact on property values. The school that my daughter attends is hardly wha1 I would describe as a rich school. Parents are asked to pay for books for all the classes, science supplies and for their students to participate in the pe

36、rforming arts among other items. If our school is to remain a world leader in technological development, cutting our school funds is the worst possible choice to make. Education funds should not be diverted away from education. Yours faithfully, Tom Williams Useful Expressions: I am highly disappoin

Please make sure that appropriate measures are taken to solve the problem. I hope you will look into the matter and give me an immediate reply. If our demand is

38、 not accepted and put into practice, we would resort to other measures. 五、邀請函 Sample Writing 1 16 May 2006 Dear Mr. Williams, Thank you for your letter of congratulation on my exam results. I was very pleased to hear from you. The results were a great relief. I did much better than I thought I would

39、. We are having a celebration party on Saturday 22 May and we shall be pleased if you can come. It is a party for me, but my parents and some of their old friends are joining in, so you will find real people as well as teenagers to talk to. The party starts at half past six drinks, and a buffet supp

40、er later. You said in your letter that youve given up driving, so my father will meet you with the car at San Mateo station. Please let me know what time your train arrives. There is a good train back to San Palo at 10:30 and well arrange transport for you to catch that. I hope that wont be too late

41、 for you. It would be a pity if you had to leave while the party was still in full swing. I do hope that you will be able to come. Yours sincerely, Lily Chen Sample Writing 2: 12 September 2006 Dear Mr. Wang, I am pleased to invite you to a luncheon, to be held by the Monterey Institute of Internati

The Stilwell Scholarship she founded helps support deserving

44、students from China who have come to the Monterey Institute to pursue professional degrees in translation and interpretation, international policy studies, language teaching and business management.

I suppose youre keen to hear how the trip has been so far. So heres a short description of whats happened. Well,

47、you remember we left Sydney on Monday and arrived in London 24 hours later. After such a long and exhausting flight the first thing we did was to have a good, long sleep. And after thata good meal to make up for all that horrible airline stuff! The first real day of our holiday was spent just walkin

48、g around London to get a feel of the place. After that, however, we were more particular and planned each day carefully. First, we looked at all the historical sights, such as the Tower of London, the Houses of Parliament, the British Museum and the National Gallery. Then we visited some other famou

49、s places, such as Kew Gardens and Hampstead Heath. Finally, we took a one-day trip to Oxford, which is really the most marvelous town. You should make sure to go there when you visit England. After we had seen a lot of London, we flew to Paris. A t first, we didnt like the placeI suppose because it

50、was so different from London. Later, though, we began to really love it and started to appreciate its differentness. The final stage of our trip is a visit to Rome, after which we will be staying in Singapore for two days before returning to Australia. Hope everyone is well. See you soon. Sample Wri

51、ting 2: 22 March 2006 Dear Tom, Im just writing to let you know that were all well, and I hope you are, too. Unfortunately, Ive got some rather bad news for you: Im afraid I made a bit of a mess of Johns car. Anyway, heres what happened. We were on our way to Carols after a long party, and I suppose

52、 it must have been about eleven oclock. Well, the last few miles back home were really dark and deserted. I now realize I was probably going a bit too fast for a country lane because, although the road was fairly straight, I drove up onto the curb and went into a tree. Of course, John was absolutely

53、 furious and started shouting at me and cursing. After we d argued for a few moments, we decided to look at the damage, and he calmed down a bit. Well, we found we could move the car, but the wing was caught on the wheel, so we couldnt drive it. I tried to pull the wing clear, but I didnt succeed. Anyway, John went off to phone for a breakdown lorry, but while he was away, I had another go at the wing and this time succeeded in pulling it right off. I thr
