　　tactful refusal to an invitation

　　dear mrs. james,

　　i’ve been putting off this note until the last possible moment, hoping mr. jackson would get back from london in time for your dinner party. but now i must regretfully write that he’ll still be out of town on thursday, the fifth; and we therefore cannot accept your kind invitation for dinner on that day. it was sweet of you to invite us; and i know mr. jackson will be as sorry as i am to miss an evening with you and dr. james. we know how delightful such evenings at your house usually are.

　　sincerely yours,

　　1.助学贷款申请信

　　directions: for this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a letter applying for a bank loan. you should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in chinese.

　　(1)个人情况介绍

　　(2)申请贷款的原因、数额及用途

　　(3)如何保证专款专用以及你的还款打算

　　dear sir/madame,

　　i am a sophomore in shanghai university, majoring in computer software. in the previous one and a half years i have been a model student and monitor of my class.

　　however, since i registered here, the expenses have become a burden for my average family. you know, my parents are both laidoff workers, and, to make matters worse, my mother has suddenly fallen ill and is expecting a major operation. it will be beyond their ability to finance me through my remaining education. it is now a must for me to help relieve their financial pressure. so i’m applying to your bank for a loan of 10,000 yuan. if my application is approved, all the money will go to my tuition and fees for the coming academic years.

　　i’ve made a detailed plan to arrange my school life. a parttime job as a family tutor will not be difficult to find and some workstudy programs for students like me are also provided in our university. from these sources i will be able to earn more than enough to support myself. i guarantee that i will repay the loan within five years, that is, within two years after my graduation. please have confidence in me: i have a very good credit record.

　　i would be greatly obliged if my application is granted. many thanks.

　　yours sincerely,

　　li ming

　　2.找工作的时候选择兴趣还是工资高

　　salary or interest

　　upon graduation，virtually all college students will confront the problem of the career choice. it is truly a tough choice. students’ opinions differ greatly on this issue. some hold that priority should be given to their interest in jobs，but others take the attitude that salary is the most critical factor influencing their career choices.

　　as to myself，i prefer the latter view. a wellpaid job exerts a tremendous fascination on a great number of people，with no exception to me. although it might be impossible to measure the value of one’s job in terms of money，salary counts most when i choose my future career. in my view，our career choices largely depend on how and where we have been brought up. i come from a poor urban family and my parents were both laidoff workers. in order to finance my tuition，they have been working hard over the past four years. as the only son in my family，i have to shoulder the burden of supporting my family.in short，salary is the first and only consideration in my choice of career.

　　3. 拥有手机的优点和缺点

　　advantages and disadvantages of the mobile phone

　　with the rapid economic development，the mobile phone has found its way into campuses and a host of students take advantage of this wonderful gadget to communicate with each other. this phenomenon gives rise to this question：what are the advantages and disadvantages of the mobile phone?

　　it is widely believed that it greatly facilitates students’ campus life. many instances could be found to support this type of opinion. a graduating student in our university bought a mobile phone in the course of hunting for his job. he told me that through the mobile phone he could easily keep in touch with the employer of the company he intends to work with and would not miss any opportunities.

　　however，everything has both positive and negative facets. the mobile phone also has many disadvantages. for instance，the ringing of the mobile phone often disturbs the teacher’s teaching and other students’ learning.考试大

　　personally，the advantages of the mobile phone outweigh the disadvantages of it as long as we don’t interfere with others while using it.
