Dear Miss Morgan,
(1 I am so sorry to tell you that I won’t be able to attend the lecture on American history tomorrow afternoon. (2 Now, I’m writing this letter to show my deep regret (3 I do hope you can understand me and excuse me for my absence.
(4 I will be very grateful if you are kind to listen to my explanation. (5 The reason for my absence is that my uncle is returning home from France, and I have promised to meet him at the airport at 3:30 tomorrow afternoon. (6 Therefore, I will have to give up attending your lecture tomorrow afternoon.
(7I wonder if it is possible for lecture to be recorded, and if so, could I borrow the tape? Sincerely yours Li Hua
dear david:
i am afraid that you will think me unpardonably negligent in not having answered your letter dated 7, december sooner, but when i have told you the reason, i trust you will be convinced that the neglect was excusable. when your letter arrived, i was just in hong kong. as my family could not forward it to me during my absence, it has been, therefore, lying on my desk until the moment when i took it up. now the first thing i have to hasten to do is to write to you these few lines to express my deep regret.
i enjoyed many pleasant sights during my trip. i shall be pleased to give you an account to of them when i see you next.
sincerely yours,
tom
亲爱的戴维:
请原谅我收到您12月7日的来信后迟迟未复,现将原因告诉您,相信您一定会谅解的。您的来信到来时,我正巧在香港,家人无法及时转递。你的信一直放在我写字台上,直到我回到才看见,拖至今天才回信,深表歉意。
这次出去旅行饱览了许多美丽景色,下次见到您时,将告诉您一切。

nowadays, we can see some boys and girls who live in a small world of their own. they bury themselves among books and are proud of themselves. they think that it will make them lose their face if they do housework for they often think themselves very noble.
these young people are wrong. in my opinion every student should have a knowledge of housework. after all, they will have a family of their own, and they should do their part in keeping a good home. boys should also learn to do housework, for what will they do if they remain single? though not all boys remain single,yet they will be very helpful in the family if they know some housework. anyhow they will not lose anything, but, on the contrary, they will gain something useful.
for what i said above, we can find some eamples of our fellow-students studying abroad. all young men do housework as girls do. someone would argue that we can employ servants. this is true.however, what shall we do if the servant leaves us and all things are left to ourselves? we just cannot leave our clothes as they are and let worms and ants eat them up. and what can we do it we go and study in a foreign country where servants are out our means to employ? we must work for ourselves. why not start to learn to do housework now or else it will be too late? everyone should learn to do housework. what do you think about my idea, boys and girls?
