新東方大學(xué)英語(yǔ)新四級(jí)考試寫(xiě)作部分講義

　　4、尋找失物信：

　　Directions: You have just spent a weekend staying at the St. Regis Hotel in Beijing. When you get home you find that you have left a bag at the hotel. Write to the manager of the hotel:

　　1) Enquire whether the bag has been found,

　　2) Give any relevant information about the bag and its contents,

　　3) Ask the manager to contact you immediately if the bag is found and tell him/her how the bag can be sent to you.

　　Dear Sir or Madam:

　　I stayed in Room 603 in your hotel on the 10th of June, 2005. When I arrived home, I discovered that I had left one of my bags at that hotel. Could you please check your Lost and Found Department and see if my bag is there?

　　The bag is a small black, leather document case. Inside it, you will find several business cards, a small address book and a photo of Mr. Old Fish. These things are not very valuable in money terms, but they have a lot of personal value.

　　I would appreciate it if you could contact me as soon as possible. If you could send the bag to me by Express Mail Service, I would be most grateful. Thank you for your help.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Ming

　　(二)投訴信：

　　Directions: You live in a room in college which you share with another student. You find it very difficult to work there because your roommate always has friends visiting. Write a letter to the Accommodation Officer at the college and:

　　1) Ask for a new room next term,

　　2) Explain your reasons,

　　3) Want a single room.

　　Dear Sir or Madam:

　　I am writing to inform you that I wish to move into a new room next semester. I would prefer a single room, as I find the present sharing arrangement inconvenient.

　　I must explain that the reason for my dissatisfaction is my roommate’s inconsiderate behavior. For one thing, his friends are constantly visiting him; for another, he regularly holds noisy parties. In these circumstances, I find it difficult to concentrate on my studies, and I am falling behind in my assignments.

　　I am sure you will agree that the only solution is for me to move into a room of my own. Therefore, I would be grateful if you could find a single room for me, preferably not in the same building but as near to the college campus as possible.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Ming

　　(三)介紹信：

　　1、 求職信：

　　Directions: You want to apply for the following job: Waiter/waitress required for evening work. Write a letter to Mr. Byron:

　　1) Show your interest,

　　2) Describe yourself,

　　3) Explain why you would be suitable for the job.

　　Dear Mr. Byron：

　　I am writing to express my interest in your recently advertised position for a waitress. Enclosed with this letter is my resume, which further details my previous work experience and qualifications.

　　First, not only do my qualifications and work experience make me a perfect candidate for the job, my personality is well suited to working as a waitress. Second, I am a very friendly person who can quickly establish rapport with people of all ages. Last, the fast-paced environment of waiting on tables suits me well because I thrive on working under pressure.

　　I would like to meet with you at your earliest convenience, to discuss the possibility of working at your restaurant. Thank you for your consideration of my application. I look forward to meeting you in the near future.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Ming
