Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to complain of a TV set which I bought form your store on May 28. After only two weeks, I found something wrong with the TV set. I telephoned to the service center of your store. The reply I got was

that an on-sale repair would be provided, but no one has ever come to repair it during the week.

In view of the inconvenience that it has caused, I feel that you should apologize to me and I should return this TV set, looking forward to a full refund.

Yours sincerely,

Zhang Ming

Dear Mr. Principal,

I am a senior student of our school. I’d like to say something about the canteen service in our school.

In general, I like our canteen. It’s clean and tidy. The dishes look good and taste delicious as well. What’s more, the service is satisfactory. The workers there are really friendly.

However, I think the prices are a little too high and we can only have a limited variety of dishes. In addition, we often have to stand in line for a long time before we can get the meal.

Therefore, I suggest something be done to solve the problems as soon as possible.

Thanks for your consideration.

Sincerely yours,

Li Hua

1、 手机的使用越来越普遍，给人们的生活带来了极大的便利；

Turn off Your Cell Phone

Nowadays, the cell phone is widely used everywhere in our country and brings us a lot of convenience. Thanks to it, we can contact others or be contacted by others at any time of the day and in any places.

But have you noticed sometimes the mobile phone also causes embarrassment to us? It’s not uncommon for us to see someone pressing the cell phone to his ear and shouting loudly in public. Most people have had such an experience that the cell phone rings continuously on a formal occasion.

Therefore, if you are one of them, please turn off your cell phone in public, especially on a quiet and serious occasion. It’s a respect for both others and yourself.
