Directions: Write a letter of complaint in at least 100 words according to the following

66. 假设你是李明,最近参加了某旅行社(travel agency)组织的一次旅游,但你对此 旅行很不满意。请你向客服(customer service)写一封投诉信,阐述投诉的原因(如:酒店、 饮食、交通及费用等)并提出你期待的解决办法。
Suggested Answer:
A Letter of Complaint
Dear Customer Service,
I am writing to tell you about a most unpleasant experience, that is , the service your travel agency offered last week made me disappointed.
First and foremost, you had promised me a seven-star hotel before the trip began. However, I realized it was just a three-star hotel the moment I reached the destination. Besides, during my stay at your designated hotel, I believed the food provided was not fresh enough. Last but not least, it took me about three hours to take a bus from the hotel to the nearest place of interest, which wasted me too much time.
I suggest that you look into this matter immediately, deal with it properly and make up for my losses.
Your early reply would be appreciated.
Yours faithfully,
Li Ming
投诉信
敬启者:
我写信的目的是告诉你们一场不愉快的经历。那就是,贵公司在上周为我提供的服务让 我失望透顶。
首先,出发前,你承诺指定的酒店是七星级。然而,到了目的地我才发现这只不过是一 所三星级酒店。其次,在贵公司指定酒店居住期间,我认为提供的食物不够新鲜。最后,从 酒店乘坐巴士到最近的旅游景点居然花了我大约 3 小时,这实在浪费了我过多的时间。
我建议贵公司立刻调查并正确地处理此问题,同时,弥补此事对我造成的不必要损失。 我将无限感激你的早日回复。
李明
