短文改错(共10分) Dear Mr. Whitehead,
D. way
I?m greatly sorry to tell you that perhaps that will be impossible for me to attend the meeting on this Sunday you asked me to. I?m terrible sorry. I know it is important because we supposed to introduce our products then, so one of my friends, Jim, would come at that time and as it will be the first time for her to come to the city, I have to go to the railway station to meet him. Is it possible what I get all the materials need ready and ask Li Dong to do the job instead of me? I would appreciate if you would agree.
Yours, Zhang Lin
