    2. 你叫李紅，一周前去香港度假時在一家商店買了一件女上衣，現(xiàn)有質(zhì)量問題。請結(jié)合下面提示向該店外籍經(jīng)理寫一封英文信。
    所購衣物：綠色女上衣，價格300元
    問題：洗滌時退色，并說明理由。
    要求：退款或換衣，并說明理由。
    就此事發(fā)表看法或提出建議。
    Dear Sir/Madam,
    I’m writing to you to complain about the quality of a GREen blouse which I bought in your shop while I was on holiday in Hong Kong about a week ago. I bought it for 268 yuan in your shop, but there seems to be something wrong with it. When it is washed, the color fades away. Now I can’t possibly wear it. It’s not my fault, so I’d like you to solve the problem for me. I insist you change it for another one for me or give me my money back (refund the money). I think it’s better for you to make sure that everything in your shop is good. Then you will have more customers.
    I’m looking forward to your early reply.
    Sincerely,
    Li Hong

    Dear Li Ming,
    I hop you are very well. I’m glad to tell you that my parents have agreed to let me go to your country this summer. The first city I plan to visit is Beijing, where I will stay for a week, and then I will go to your city by train to see you and your parents. As we haven’t met before, I’m afraid there will be some difficulty in meeting each other, and I’m also afraid that it will not be easy for me to find your house. So please tell me how to get in touch with you while I stay in Beijing and how to meet or find you when I arrive in your city.
    Please give my regards to your parents.
    Best wishes

    10. 假如你是李明。請以A Big Funeral Is Too Late為題，向一家英文報紙寫一封信，批評子女虐待老人，老人死后卻又花錢大操大辦喪事的不良社會風(fēng)氣。
    1. 舉一例虐待老人的事例(在住、吃、治病方面)，但老人死后兒子花錢大辦喪事的事例。
    2. 發(fā)表你自己的看法。
    A Big Funeral Is Too Late
    Dear editor,
    I’m writing to you to draw our attention to one of bad social customs – ill-treating the old while they are alive but holding a big funeral after their death.
    Grandma Li was my neighbor, who died last month. The old lady had three sons. All of them had grown up and got married, but none of them wanted to take care of her. They let her live in a small dark room. They gave her little food. When she got ill, they refused to take her to hospital.
    But to my surprise, the old lady’s sons spent a lot of money on her funeral. The funeral lasted several days, and scores of cars and trucks were used on the day when the old lady was buried.
    What is the use of such a big funeral for the old lady? It is too late for her. We should take care of old parents while they are alive instead of spending so much money on them when they are dead.
    Yours faithfully,
    Li Ming
