abroad.So it should remain where it is.What’s more, moving may cause the death of some animals.To move or not, this is a big decision which has to be made by people in Beijing.Yours truly, Li Hua 3.假设你的英文名为Jack,是英国诺丁汉大学的中国留学生。你负责为在该校就读的32名中国学生筹划圣诞节期间的苏格兰之行,为期7天,请你给诺丁汉的STA(Students’Travel Agency)经理Phil发一封电子邮件,联系有关事宜。要点如下:

people suffer from this inconsiderate action.A friend of mine living in another city once visited me, and she told me our city’s taxi drivers cheated her by taking a roundabout route.What will a guest think of our city after such a bad experience? I think we must take actions to tighten control over the taxi trade.Maybe the first thing to do is raise the taxi drivers’ professional morality.We are looking forward to your reply.Sincerely yours, Li Hua

advantages, despite one of their reasons that they can do something useful for society in this way.High school students can’t support themselves financially but depend on their parents for the moment.Thus, in order to collect money with which to buy lottery tickets, they may try every possible means , even commit crimes.In addition, if they put their minds on lottery tickets, their lessons will be more or less affected.And in the long run, lottery ticket purchasing may contribute to their wrong understanding that there must be a shortcut to every destination , which will surely do great harm to their future life.Therefore, I think it is necessary for them to keep away from lottery stations and concentrate on their studies for now.Yours , Li Hua

A good example of memo
To:Dong Fang, Head Reference Librarian
From: Liu Jian, Reference Assistant
Subject: Implementing Open Shelves in the Reference
Section
Date:May 10, 2008
The purpose of this memo is to recommend a new shelving system for books in the reference section of our library.Following are(1)a background statement,(2)a discussion of the new system, and(3)recommendations.Background
Under the present system of closed shelves, students wishing to consult reference books must fill out a requisition slip, wait in line, give the requisition to a desk person, and wait some more time before receiving the desired book.This system is time-consuming, unwieldy, and ineffective.The result is that students do not like to use the reference facility of the library.New System
I propose that we switch to an open-shelf system at once.The transition can be made simply by eliminating the desk that forms the front of the reference section.The fear of theft that some people have voiced could be eliminated by using the magnetic detection system that is already in place.The benefit of open shelves would be a reduction in personnel and free access to a needed library resource.Recommendations
To implement the open-shelf system we should proceed with the following changes:
1.1.Eliminate the front reference desk.2.2.Maintain a central information desk.3.3.Reassign all but two librarians who presently work at the front reference desk.I am certain that these changes will do much to improve the service that this section of the library provides.
