To whom it may concern,
I am writing to voice my dissatisfaction with an electronic
dictionary I purchased in your online store last Wednesday. This
digital dictionary is a faulty one with the following problems: for
a start, it fails to read some words properly and many entries are
mistakenly defined; in the second place, I saw several scratches on
the screen when I first unfolded the packaging, thus I wonder
whether it is a pre-owned one. You are expected to either replace
this defective one with an entirely new one or refund my
money.
Your prompt reply will be highly appreciated!
Yours,
Zhang Wei

敬启者:
现在写信是为了表达我对于上周三在你们网店购买的电子词典的不满。这个词典质量有缺陷,存在如下问题:首先,它不能正确读取某些单词并且错误定义了一些词条;其次,在首次打开包装的时候我在显示器上发现了几道划痕,因此我怀疑它是否为二手产品。你被要求更换该词典或者全额退款。
非常感谢你及时的答复!
你的,
张伟

◆ 邀请信
基本概述:邀请信分写给亲戚、朋友之间的邀请信以及涉及到重要会议,活动的邀请信两类。无论哪一种,措辞一定要简短,扼要,热情,给人一种非常真诚和亲切的感受。邀请信的写作重点主要体现在三点:第一是邀请的提出,主要包括活动的时间,地点和内容等;第二是邀请对方参加的理由;第三点属于客套的结束语,比如热情欢迎对方的光临、对对方的答复的一种期待等。
文章架构:
● 首段:写作目的与意图
● 主体段落:明确交代具体内容,包括what , when , where , why
以及reasons,同时在适当时候也可以用少量的词语恭维一下被邀请人。
● 尾段:总结内容, 期待对方的尽快回复。
