一、向学校食堂有关人员写一封有关食物标准下降的投诉信。信中指出：食堂曾经提供过制作精良（well-prepared）的食品，但自本月初以来，不仅菜的品种减少，而且质量亦有明显的下降，不是做过头（overcook）就是不够热，……以致不少学生不再来食堂就餐。希望就此得到食堂的解释并了解食堂今后的打算。

15 March 2006 Dear Sirs, I wish to draw your attention to the reduction in the standard of food provided by the school’s canteen.I very much appreciate the well-prepared food which used to be available in the canteen.However, in the early of March the number of dishes was dramatically reduced, and there was a marked deterioration in quality.I have tried the canteen periodically since then and have always been served overcooked, lukewarw food.The sharp decline in the number of students using the canteen suggests to me that my criticisms are generally held.I would be very grateful if you could explain to me why this decline in standard has occurred, and whether the school intends to take steps to rectify the situation.（121 words）
Yours incerely, Zhang Ning
二、你的好朋友王宏（Wang Hong）邀请你和另外几位同学参加在他家里举行的生日聚会。但你在赴会的途中遇上塞车，迟到了半个小时。你的同学高岩（Gao Yan）批评了你几句，你就和他吵了起来。结果，大家不欢而散。回到家里后，你觉得十分内疚，决定以电子邮件的形式给王宏写一封道歉信。信中告诉王宏你与高岩吵架的间接原因，你对此事深感抱歉，请王宏原谅，并表示，你会从此事中吸取教训，今后要尽量避免类似事情的发生。
Dear Wang Hong, Thank you for your invitation to your birthbay party, and I feel quite sorry for my quarrel with Gao Yan, which spoiled your party.So after arriving at home, I felt it neceary to write you a letter to expre my apology.I’m to blame to have set out quite late and I should have thought of the terrible traffic jam.Moreover, I should give a patient explanation for my being late.Even now I still feel unhappy because I failed in two exams and now I am busy preparing for the make-up exams when I return to my college.I’ll draw a leon from this quarrel to prevent the similar incidents from happening again and keep good friendship with our higher school fellows.If poible, I’ll organize a dancing party to make up the quarrel with Gao Yan.
Yours sincerely,
