Dear Cathy,
I am writing to expreour heartfelt thanks for taking good care of smart while we were on holiday. He was such a happy dog when we got home; we knew he must have had lots of loving attention. When we used to pick up from the kennel he would whimper and carry on for hours.
You not only saved us some money, you also spared us the worry of how he was doing while we were away. Your kind help is very much appreciated, not only by smart, but also by our whole family as well.
Yours truly,
Emily

你不但幫我們省了錢，也使我們免於對於它的`擔心。對於你的幫助我們都非常感謝。

Dear Mr. Williams,
I am writing on behalf of the English Department to invite you to give a lecture in our college. We know that you are an expert on American literature. As English majors, our students would like to know something about American literature. We would be very grateful if you could give a talk on "Contemporary American Literature" to students of the English Department on Saturday, June 4. If this subject does not suit you, any other similar topic would be welcome as well.
We have already had several very interesting talks from some distinguished visitors from various countries and we look forward early to the opportunity to benefit from your experience and wisdom.
