新東方大學(xué)英語(yǔ)新四級(jí)考試寫(xiě)作部分講義

　　(六)請(qǐng)求信：

　　Directions: You find your study load is too heavy. Write a letter to your college teacher:

　　1) The need to drop two courses,

　　2) Explain the reasons,

　　3) Ask if it is possible to obtain a refund.

　　Dear Professor Shakespeare:

　　I am writing to formally request to withdraw from two courses: Introduction to Elementary Education and Teaching Methods.

　　The main reason for reducing my course load is that I am finding it extremely difficult to manage six courses. Because I really have to work part time, I have no other choice but to decrease my course load. I would also like to request a tuition refund. I am sorry for any inconveniences I have caused by this change in plans.

　　This decision was not taken lightly, and I do appreciate the kind consideration you have shown to me. Thank you for your attention to these requests. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 82036600. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Ming

　　(七)道歉信：

　　Directions: One of your pen pals will shortly be visiting your city. For some reason, you cannot manage to meet him at the airport on time. Write a letter to him/her:

　　1) Explain the reasons,

　　2) Ask him to wait for you at the airport,

　　3) Tell him how to identify you.

　　Dear Wangcai:

　　I am very much looking forward to your visit to my city. Just think: after all these years of writing to each other, we will finally have the chance to meet! However, I regret to inform you that I will not be able to meet you at the airport as soon as you arrive.

　　The reason is that your flight will arrive early in the morning, and the quickest I can get to the airport will be about an hour after your land. Please wait for me in the arrival lounge.

　　By the way, as we have never met I must tell you how to recognize me: I am of medium height and have a small mustache. Looking forward to our first meeting.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Ming

　　(八)邀請(qǐng)信：

　　Directions: You want to invite some friends to a party. Write an invitation letter to them individually:

　　1) Invite them to the party,

　　2) Elaborate on the reason why such a party should be held,

　　3) What activities will be arranged for them.

　　Dear Snoopy:

　　I am greatly honored to formally invite you to participate in Mr. Old Fish’s wedding ceremony with Miss Fujiwora to be held at Beijing Grand Hotel from 8 to 10 p.m. on April 1, 2006.

　　As you are a close friend of us, we would very much like you to participate in the celebration and share our joy. The occasion will start at seven o’clock in the evening, with the showing of their wedding ceremony. This will be followed by a dinner party. At around ten, we will hold a small musical soiree, at which a band will perform some works by Bach and Strauss.

　　If you do not have any prior appointment on April 1, we look forward to the pleasure of your company.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Ming
