Dear Sir/Madam,
I have read your advertisement in the newspaper. You mentioned in it that your instructors are fully qualified and you ensure that learners will be able to swim well after one week’s training.
I can swim a little but I’m not very confident in the water. So I’m interested in taking part in the training course. Fortunately, the summer holiday is around the corner. I’m writing to inquire when and where the course will be given, and how long the training course will last each day. I also want to know how much you will charge me for that. Besides, would you be so kind as to tell me whether there is anything special that should be prepared or does your company provide everything necessary?
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am very grateful for your great service while staying at your hotel, but I’m writing to ask for your help with sending back my camera that I left in your hotel.
I checked in on January 27 and out on February 5 and stayed in Room 608 for the whole time. Perhaps because I left in such a rush for the airport, I made the mistake of leaving my camera in the room.
Since it was a gift from my parents on my 17th birthday, it’s very important to me. It’s a white Canon Ixus860. I would be very grateful if you could help me find it.
If found, the camera can be posted back to me by using the address on the envelope.
I am looking forward to your early reply!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
