It has been three years since we graduated from our university. I miss you very much. I even can’t wait to see you.I’ve made a plan for this holiday. As this is the first time you come to Beijing, I think we’d better have sightseeing around it. We can visit some famous scenic spots and historical sites, such as Summer Palace, The Forbidden City, The Great Wall, etc. We can do some shopping together. There are many splendid markets and plazas in Beijing. The State Library is also a good place for us to go.By the way, since lots of people will go traveling in this holiday, it must be crowded on the train. So you should take care of your luggage. Bring more clothes with you because Beijing is much colder than Kunming at this time. And don’t forget to tell me when you will arrive. I’ll pick you up at the airport.Miss you!Yours,Zhang Ying2002.1 A Letter to the University President about the Canteen Service on Campus假设你是李明,请你就本校食堂的状况给校长写一封信,内容应涉及食堂的饭菜质量、价格、环境、服务等,可以是表扬,可以是批评建议,也可以兼而有之。
January 12th, 2002Dear Mr. President,_______________________________________________________________________________ _________________………LimingJanuary 12th, 2002Dear Mr. President,I am a student of computer science in our university. I am writing this letter to you to show about the canteen service on campus on behalf of some students of our department.Firstly, we feel we need more varieties of foods served to the students, which means every student can get the food that he thinks suitable for his taste and his pocket money allowance.Secondly, we find it essential to prolong the opening hours of the canteen. A student from a class that ends at 12:00 noon may reach the canteen no sooner than 12:30. However, the fact is that the canteen is closed when he gets there. Thirdly, we are greatly concerned with the dining environment. We feel that student diners are entitled to a better dining environment than what they are having now.We do hope that the university authority will look into the problems and solve them.Yours Sincerely,Li Ming2003.12 A letter in reply to a friend's inquiry about applying for admission to your college or university1.建议报考的专业及理由2.报考该专业的基本条件3.应当如何备考A Letter in Reply to a FriendDear,When it comes to which major you should choose, I propose that you apply for the major of English. To begin with, English is the most popular language in the world, which is widely used in all fields such as teaching, translation, and foreign trade and so on. What’s more, it goes without saying that English majors are more likely to find a good job in the tighter and tighter job market.In order to study at English Department, you have to meet the following requirements. In the first place, you have to spend a lot of time on it, just as the old saying goes, “Practice makes perfect”. In the second place, the basic skills of reading, listening and speaking are necessary, because they are the foundations for your future study. Last but not the least important, you need an intense interest in learning English since “interest is the best teacher.”As far as the preparation work is concerned, you should first of all review all the required vocabulary.

申请信A Letter of Application1. 我是大二学生(sophomore),现申请从自动化系转到商务管理系2. 申请的主要原因3. 对转系带来的麻烦表示歉意,并希望有关领导能同意我的申请Dear Sir/Madam,(试卷上此称谓已有,考生不用再写)I am a sophomore with major in Automation. Though I have made a great progress during my first year academic training, I find that I am more interested in Business Administration. Now I am writing to you to formally request to switch to this area of study. (写信目的)The main reason for my d ecision is that the major I am studying in is my parents’ choice. They insisted that I should study what they had learned before but after a year’s study I have come to realize this is not the career I want to pursue in my future life. Besides, I have attended business classes as my optional course and achieved a good success, which further confirms my decision.(理由)I am sorry for any inconvenience or trouble that might have been caused by this change.
