Dear Mrs. Grant,
I just had to write and thank you for a most enjoyable weekend. Joe’s party on Saturday and the picnic at Hadow on Sunday made it a weekend to remember. It was all great fun. I did enjoy seeing
everyone again.
Thank you for your kindness in inviting me to stay overnight on the Saturday and for looking after me as well. I am very grateful. With best wishes.
Sincerely yours, Li Ming

Dear Mary,
Thank you very much for the wonderful holiday vacation I spent with you and your family. Your mother is such a terrific cook! I think I must have gained 10 pounds in just the week I spent with you. I really appreciate your taking time off from work to take me around and show me so many places. You are lucky to live in such an interesting area. I hope that soon you will be able to visit my part of the country. Thank you again for the wonderful time. Let’s keep in touch.
Yours, Li Ming
(2) 谢赠礼品 ①
Dear Zhang Ming, I don’t know how to thank you for the English-Chinese dictionary which arrived this morning. It was such a happy surprise. I’ve been longing for one for a long time. It is just what I need. Now I don’t have to go to the library every time I need to find out certain words and expressions in English. I can refer to it any time at home. It means such convenience to my study and research work.
It was very kind of you to send me this valuable gift. I appreciate it more than I can say.
Sincerely yours, Li Ming

Dear Ying,
Thank you very much for the painting of “Garden in the South”. John and I have been looking for paintings since we moved to the new house, but we couldn’t find exactly what we wanted, and we were a bit disappointed every time we came home from visits to Culture Street downtown. Then your lovely gift arrived on Thursday. We hung it up immediately. Do come over in the coming spring break and see for yourself how beautifully it complements the sitting-room color scheme.
Again thanks for taking the time and the trouble to get us just the right thing. We love it.
Affectionately, Li Ming

Dear Emily,
When I first came to this town, I was a perfect stranger. The streets and shops puzzled me so much that I did not have the courage to go out of doors. It is your valuable guidance that has enabled me to go about the town without getting lost. I thank you very much for your kindness. Our school will reopen the day after tomorrow, so I will not be able to call on you this week, but I’ll see you on the coming Sunday.
Yours, Li Ming
