　　Dear Bob,

　　I am writing to make an apology to you for I forgot to return a music CD which I borrowed from you last week. Yesterday I have come back from Canada and I found it in my luggage. I am so sorry that you cannot listen to it at present.

　　The CD which I borrowed from you is made in Canada, so I believe you can find another one in your local store. How about your buying another CD by yourself and I will pay for it? If you cannot find the similar one, I would send it back to you through a post office. And if there are any other solutions you like, please let me know.

　　I am sorry again for my carelessness. Looking forward to your reply.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Ming

　　親愛的鮑勃，

　　我從加拿大回來(lái)后收拾行李時(shí)突然發(fā)現(xiàn)了你上周向你借的音樂(lè)CD，這才明白我忘記將CD歸還給你了，我感到萬(wàn)分抱歉!很抱歉你現(xiàn)在不能聽了。

　　我向你借的CD是加拿大的，所以你應(yīng)該可以在當(dāng)?shù)厣痰曩I到另外一個(gè)。所以你能不能自己買一個(gè)，我把錢寄給你?如果你找不到另外一個(gè)類似的CD了，我就用特快專遞把這個(gè)CD寄回去。如果有你喜歡的其他方案，請(qǐng)告知我。

　　再次為我的粗心道歉。期待你的回復(fù)。

　　真誠(chéng)的，

　　李明

　　Dear editor,

　　I’m a sincere reader of your newspaper and I like your discussion of the social problems. Now I would like to give some opinions of myself about the “White Pollution”.

　　As we know, regulation was made to solve the problem in June 1st of 2008. The use of plastic bags for free was restricted in the supermarket and many other shops. At the beginning, it was carried on well, but now I find plastic bags are used in some small shops for free or with no pay.

　　I am writing to inform you that we should solve this problem soon with the help of your newspaper. You could make some investigations about it and write some reports of it, so as to appeal to all the people’s attention of our society.

　　Sincerely,

　　Li Ming

　　親愛的編輯，

　　我是貴報(bào)忠實(shí)的讀者，我很喜歡你們對(duì)社會(huì)問(wèn)題的討論。我想就“白色污染”發(fā)表一下自己的觀點(diǎn)。

　　我們知道，為了解決這個(gè)問(wèn)題，2008年8月1號(hào) 發(fā)布了一條法令：禁止在超市和其他商店免費(fèi)使用塑料袋。開始時(shí)，這個(gè)法令執(zhí)行的很好，但是現(xiàn)在我發(fā)現(xiàn)一些小商店還在免費(fèi)使用塑料袋。

　　我寫信是為了在貴報(bào)的幫助下，我們應(yīng)該可以解決這個(gè)問(wèn)題。你們可以做一個(gè)相關(guān)調(diào)查，并做相關(guān)報(bào)道，以吸引全社會(huì)的關(guān)注。

　　真誠(chéng)的，

　　李明
