Answer 1

【答案】Dear Sir/Madam.

Thank you for your offer of inviting me to the Winter English course in your school. As for my choice between the two courses, I prefer the two-week course for 30 hours of study. Because this would allow me more time to do some traveling and make a few new friends as well.

Of all the subjects I'm learning at school, I like English best. I have been learning English for 6 years but my spoken English remains poor. As a result, I hope to take this chance to improve it. If possible, I’d like to stay with a family for a couple of days so that I can know some customs in England. I believe I will have a wonderful time this winter.

Yours truly,

Li Hua
