Dear Mr. and Mrs. Hooper,

I hope you are all well. The flight home seemed very long bout my family all came to meet me at the airport, which was fantastic. Thank you so much for having me – I enjoyed my time with you very much. I have a favor to ask. When I got home. I realized that I had left a small black handbag in my bedroom. You may recall that I bought myself a new bag while I was Sydney and I'm pretty sure I put the old one under the bed.

I don't really need the bag but some of the things inside are of sentimental value and I would be very grateful if you could send them to me. There is a red address book, a small leather wallet with some photos and a silver necklace. None of the other things are important so please don’t worry about them. Could you please let me know row much the postage is and I will send you the money to cover the cost.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you once again for your help. Love to all the family.

Maria

Dear Sir or Madam,

I’m writing to complain about the recent purchase of a woolen sweater from your department store on Philip Street, on August 25, 2007.

亲爱的先生、女士：

我写此信是要就我 2007年8月25日从你们在菲利普大街上的商店里购买的一件羊毛衫进行投诉的。

I recently washed the sweater in cool water, as per the instructions on the label. However, when I removed it from the machine, the garment was stretched out of shape and no longer fits.

我最近按照标签上的说明用冷水洗了这件羊毛衫，然而，当我将它从洗衣机里取出时，这件衣服却变形了，再也不合身了。

I phoned the store last Tuesday (June 21) and spoke to the department manager, a Mr. Morris, who was rather rude on the phone and informed me that I could not get a replacement sweater as it was purchased at a reduced price. I felt really upset, for I have been a loyal customer of your store for many years and until this incident, never have had any complaints. I, therefore, feel disappointed to be treated in such a manner.

我上周二(6月21日)打电话到店里，是与一位叫Morris先生的`部门经理讲的，他电话里很是无礼，告知我说因为这件衣服是降价购买的，因此不能退换。对此，我深感不满，因为我多年来一直是贵店的忠实顾客，在此事件之前，从来没有过任何投诉。因此，我对受到如此待遇深感失望。

I would, however, be perfectly satisfied if you would kindly replace the sweater or refund my money, whichever is more convenient.

然而，我的要求并不高。如果你们能够给我退换一件，或者为我办理退费，怎么方便就怎么办，我都会非常满意的。

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

期盼收到您的答复。

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing this letter to explain why I have been unable to return the three books I have out on three-day loan, which are now overdue. After taking the books out on 16th March, I had an urgent phone call from my elderly aunt’s neighbour to say that my aunt had had a fall and had been taken into hospital. I am her only surviving relative in this country(考官想到了一个非常正当的理由，我是我的阿姨最后的亲人，我必须去马上照顾她), so I felt I had to go and see her immediately. I travelled down to Surrey the following morning, thinking I would stay for only two or three days. Unfortunately, my aunt’s condition has only improved very slowly, so I have had to stay here longer than expected. However, the hospital says that if all goes well, she could be able to go home in two or three days’ time, in which case I will be back at the beginning of next week.

Bearing in mind the circumstances, I trust you will kindly waive any fines that may be have accumulated.

Yours sincerely,

Jacky Sun

It is true that people today are often spending more on special occasions. Some think this is wasteful, while others feel it is positive for individuals and communities. Although I can see the other side, I agree more with the latter and will outline my view below.

Admittedly, I believe it could be seen as a waste of money, and perhaps the most obvious reason for this is that it could arguably be spent on more important things. By outlaying too much on items such as decorations and fancy clothes, people may well neglect other areas of their lives, leading to them not only lacking the means to invest in, say, their education, but also potentially landing them in debt. A good example is in China, where it is not uncommon for bridal parties to spend tens of thousands of dollars on wedding receptions, as this can place people in financial difficulty. As such, they might curb their savings, which is why, ultimately, some young couples cannot afford to buy a house.

Despite this, I feel it is positive. One reason for this is that celebrations such as these contribute significantly to the economy. Jing Bing, for example, one of China’s wealthiest men, celebrated his 60th birthday last year in Shanghai, spending a fortune on catering, flowers, fireworks and other forms of entertainment. This, certainly, was beneficial to local businesses. Another is that it is important for our mental and emotional health to celebrate achievements and milestones. When we devote significant time to stressful pursuits such as work, we invariably need to relax and unwind, in turn allowing us to spend quality time with those closest to us. What this can do is help us find an essential work-life balance, and, as a result, I do not see this outlay as a waste.

Overall, I believe, while there are conflicting reasons, money spent on celebrations, even large amounts, is appropriate.

Without any discussing, the key to happiness, in my opinion, is a harmonious relationship with the people in our lives.

It is the people in our lives who bring us the most happiness. Family, friends and co-workers, who are part of our inner circle, share our experiences, hopes and dreams, successes and frustrations, joys and pains. Too often, many of us get on the fast track of life and take each other for granted. As a new millennium approach, more people disregard their passion and interests and choose careers based on job security, pay and professional promotion. As a result, they find themselves isolated and without friends. Loneliness is a common tragedy that destroys lives.

Actually we were old enough to remember the old saying "Money doesn’t buy happiness", yet we strive for the material objects and pay a high price. The essence of happiness is the unconditionally love we have for the people in our lives and their unconditionally love for us. To live life only for ourselves will bring us nothing but sadness and misery.

A self-centered life is an unhappy life. Selfishness is a major block to happiness. Our feelings of insecurity and low self-esteem cause us to be takers rather than givers. Our selfishness is often a mask for fear. If we don’t think too much about ourselves, we have a lot of work to do in order to enhance our self-worth. We must live for something greater than ourselves. To be happy, we must get out of ourselves. An unhappy person must turn outward, not inward, to find happiness.

I truly believe that the happiest people are those who love many things. They love children, family and friends. They love sunrises and sunsets. They love life. They have even learned to love pain and despair rather than viewing them the opposite of happiness.

Some people argue that we no longer remember the original meaning of festivals, and that most of us treat them as opportunities to have fun. While I agree that enjoyment seems to be the priority during festival times, I do not agree that people have forgotten what these festivals mean.

On the one hand, religious and traditional festivals have certainly become times for celebration. In the UK, Christmas is a good example of a festival period when people are most concerned with shopping, giving and receiving presents, decorating their homes and enjoying traditional meals with their families. Most people look forward to Christmas as a holiday period, rather than a time to practise religion. Similar behaviour can be seen during non-religious festivals, such as Bonfire Night. People associate this occasion with making fires, watching firework displays, and perhaps going to large events in local parks; in other words, enjoyment is people’s primary goal.

However, I disagree with the idea that the underlying meaning of such festivals has been forgotten. In UK primary schools, children learn in detail about the religious reasons for celebrating Christmas, Easter and a variety of festivals in other religions. For example, in late December, children sing Christmas songs which have a religious content, and they may even perform nativity plays telling the story of Jesus’ birth. Families also play a role in passing knowledge of religious festivals’ deeper significance on to the next generation. The same is true for festivals that have a historical background, such as Bonfire Night or Halloween, in the sense that people generally learn the stories behind these occasions at an early age.

In conclusion, although people mainly want to enjoy themselves during festivals, I believe that they are still aware of the reasons for these celebrations.
