范文

Dear Sam，

I would really appreciate your kindness if you promise to help me make sure the safety of my house when I am away. I am going to California tomorrow. My mum is seriously ill, so I need to go there to take care of her. I am so sorry I have to leave in a great hurry, and I will leave my key with you. For your convenience, I would like to tell you exactly what you need to do.

As you know, this is an old house and its beams are cracked with age. When it rains, the leaking roof may be a problem. In case it rains, since there’s no better solutions, I request you to fetch a bucket to catch the drops. Besides, the pipes and power lines of the house are also aging seriously, although I asked the maintenance staff to inspect and maintain them last week, I am still not sure whether something would be wrong again. Hence, I hope you could help me check the pipes and lines every day to ensure safety. If there’s any problem, you could call the maintenance and ask him to replace the pipelines. By the way, if you advance the maintenance cost on behalf of me, please let me pay the bill after I am back.

If everything goes smoothly, I will stay there for about a week, and then return on 23rd July. I’m sorry for the inconvenience, and once again I’d like to thank you for your kindness.

Yours faithfully,

Sherry

Some people think that holding parties, wedding parties, birthday parties and other celebrations is a waste of money. Others, however, think that such parties are important for individuals and for the society.

Discuss two views and give your opinion.

范文

When it comes to the issue of various parties and celebrations, divided opinions emerge. In the essay, both the dark and bright side of them will be expounded.

On the one side, parties have many benefits. Superficially speaking, they enrich a person’s life. One can get away with daily routines and enjoy delicious foods, wines, music and dances. Also, he or she can make new friends with whom same and similar hobbies can be shared. It is said that people become more innovative and creative when they relax from time to time and meet new friends. Profoundly speaking, wedding parties and promotion celebrations enable couples and family members to form a closer bond. To be pragmatic, celebrations might offer a great opportunity for salespeople to promote their products or for the businessmen to find their partners.

On the other side, drawbacks of celebrations can never be ignored. The most obvious shortcoming is that there can be large amount of wastes of foods, beverages and disposable interior decorations. What’s more, some parties might trigger family frictions. For instance, parents may blame the young for coming home too lately while couples may suspect the loyalty of their spouses. Extreme cases such as adolescents running away from homes and husband and wife getting a divorce are not rare. Apart from that, parties and celebrations may occupy the time which are originally set aside for studying or working, which may lead to poor academic results and limited career prospects.

In conclusion, parties and celebration can be both a blessing and a curse. It is only through living the most appropriate frequency of holding and attending such events can a person enjoy life to the maximum extent.
