I sincerely hope you can understand my situation and accept my apology. I would appreciate your allowing me to take a make-up examination. I will come to your office during your office hour on Monday to discuss this possibility with you. Once again, I apologize for any inconvenience caused.

[参考范文]On the Relationship between Environment and Economy
The two pictures above are both about the relationship between the environment and the economic development. In the first picture, GDP is on the rise while the environment is drastically polluted. In the second picture, economic efficiency progresses with environmental protection. It’s easy to get the conclusion that development according to the second picture is more reasonable than that in the first one.
In the early development of socialism, our country didn’t pay much attention to the issue of environmental protection and savored the bitterness. Now, the government has taken many measures and is implementing the strategy of “sustainable development”. One aspect of the strategy is to develop the economy and take measures to protect the environment at the same time. In this way, we can develop our country in a sustainable manner and our offspring can have enough resources to develop society. If we don’t put much emphasis on the environment issue and excavate the natural resources blindly, our country will become a barren land sooner or later.
In a word, sustainable development is a reasonable strategy which should be implemented for a long time. The nature is providing us with plentiful resources generously, but it may punish us severely if we don’t care her.
Study the picture above carefully and write an essay entitled “The Adaptation of the Classical Literature”. In the essay, you should (1 describe the picture (2 interpret its meaning (3 give your opinion about the phenomenon. You should write about 200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points?
The picture gives us a view of a popular phenomenon: the adaptation of the classics. Some classical literary works, such as our four great classics i.e. A Dream of Red Mansions, Journey to the West, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Heroes of the Marshes, are all adapted to cater to some readers’ tastes. The traditional characters become so strange and the plots are totally different. It is so ridiculous that the precious literary treasures are allowed to be ruined so much.
As we all know, the classical literature is the representation of the outstanding art of our nation. Some familiar characters such as Monkey King express the good wishes of our common people. From them, we learn many good virtues such as honesty, bravery, justice etc. However, in those adapted works named “Bantering***”or “Reboiling***”, all plots are changed and all characters become somewhat watered clown. Some readers interested in reading burlesque works have high praise for them. But they never think of the negative effects of such adaptations on the average reader, especially to children. Children are the future of the nation. They always believe that what is in the books is the truth. Those adapted works will affect their outlook on life.
Therefore, some measures should be taken to restrict these adaptations. The real classics should be presented on the bookshelves to lead people to appreciate the real art.
我依旧在漫无目的地飘,飘啊飘。我会去哪呢?我家在哪呢?我能回家吗?
我随风飘飞,无意间看到了一个小学生的作文:“窗外的雨哗哗地下,像一首动听的歌……雨过天晴了,太阳又出现在了蔚蓝的天幕上。”是么?我心中暗笑。雨像唱歌?也许是吧,只不过是哀歌。一场场酸雨落地的声音怎么是动听的歌呢?蔚蓝的天空?可我飞到天上看到的也只是灰色的天空而已。我飘在灰色的空中,看着眼前的穷山恶水,想着学生作文中的青山绿水,不禁赞叹他的想象力。
这时,一只手把我从空中拉了下来。他要干什么?带我回家吗?可我还没来得及高兴,他已堵住我的嘴。这是做什么呢?我突然想起电影中许多人在救人时,都先堵住被救者的嘴。那他是来救我的!欣喜之情蔓延全身,可他却用另一只手朝我身上狠狠地拍来。他要做什么?不!一股恐惧感让我感到不安,我奋力地想摆脱,可却无能为力。“啪!”的一声巨响,我身上已破了个洞,而他也大笑地扬长而去。我无力地倒在地上,无论如何也想不出我何时惹了他,令他如此对我。
在地上休息了好长一段时间,可路人却丝毫不关心我,任凭我怎样*、怒吼都无济于事。无奈之下,我拖起重伤的身子,又随风飘飞起来。
因为受了伤,所以我飞得很低,让我惊讶的是,一路上我看到许多我的兄弟姐妹。他们要么在路上躺着,要么和我一样随风飘着。他们都想要回家,都在寻找家的方向,可来来往往的人们没一人伸出援手,都只是冷漠地看了我们一眼,就离开了,这使我感到十分心寒。
我一直有着一个梦想,这个梦想也一定是我的兄弟姐妹的梦想。
我梦想有一天,人们能够帮助我们,让我们不在露宿街头。
我梦想有一天,有人能把我们送回家去,那儿才是最温暖的港湾。
我梦想有一天,人们能多给我们一些家,让我们不必四处寻找。
我梦想有一天……
我虽然是只塑料袋,但我仍梦想有一天,人们能把我们送回垃圾箱,因为那儿,才是我们的家……
风依旧在刮,雨降了下来,茫茫天地间,何处是我家?

Suppose you have found something wrong with the electronic dictionary that you bought from an online store the other day. Write an email to the customer service center to
1 make a complaint, and
2 demand a prompt solution.
Dear Sir or Madam,
I bought/ordered an electronic dictionary from your online shop on January 1st, but I found it has some problems after using it for a short period of time.
To begin with, the battery needs recharging after a mere 2 hours of use. This means that I need to carry my charger with me when I go out for a day. In addition, the buttons on the electronic dictionary are so small that it is nearly impossible to type anything with them. Personally, I found this to be completely unacceptable.
Therefore, I would like either to change for another model that works well or a full refund. I am looking forward to your prompt reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming
