I’m writing to ask you to excuse me for not being able to keep our appointment. I do know that this is very impolite

nearby hospital. I stayed there until her son came, which spoiled our appointment.
I am aware that our appointment is of importance. I do hope that you would be kind enough to spare your valuable to
meet me.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.

power to overcome the illness.
These days, my condition has been obviously improved due to the careful treatment offered by doctors and nurses.

Write a latter to Wang Qishan, mayor of the capital city, to 1) Make suggestions for the 2008 preparation work, 2) Express your wish to be a volunteer.
Dear Wang Qishan,
I am a senior in Peking University. The 2008 Beijing Olympic Games is coming in two years. After watching the 2004
Athens Olympic Games, I can not help writing to you.
First of all, here is my suggestion for the preparation work of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The construction work
of the sports building must be completed in time according to the contract. In Athens, the swimming stadium was not
accomplished in time so that the event had to be held in the open air, which has brought negative effect on the
performance of athletes. In one word, to protect the international image of China and ensure the Olympic competition, we
must finish our preparation work well and in time.
Last but not least important, I want to express my wish to be a volunteer. In the first place, it is the duty of every
Chinese to do his bit for the 2008 Olympic Games. In the second place, I have a good command of foreign languages. I can
speak English, Russian, and Japanese. Therefore I can be a qualified volunteer. I am looking forward to your reply
Sincerely Yours
Li Ming
