范文
Dear James,
I was very shocked to get your letter saying that the noise from my flat has been spoiling your evenings and causing you some distress. I am really, really sorry about that. I had no idea that you would be able to hear so much, so I hope you will accept my apologies.
As you may have guessed , I am trying to refit my kitchen in the evenings when I get home from work. Unfortunately it is all taking longer than expected and I have been having problems with getting things to fit properly. This has meant a lot of banging and hammering.
As the kitchen is still not finished, I have decided to call in a professional builder who will finish the work in the next day or two. He’ll work only during daytime hours, so you won’t be disturbed in the evenings again, I promise.
Sorry to have caused the problems,
Bill

Making Suggestions類范文
Your local library intends to improve its service and facilities. As a regular reader, please writing a letter to the chief librarian and offer your proposals.
Dear Sir/ Madam,
I am glad to learn that the library is to steps to enhance its service and facilities and I am writing this letter to offer my suggestions.
As we all know, libraries are not only essential for students and researchers, they also play a crucial role in the education and entertainment of the reader. In my view, our library should do its utmost to purchase the latest books and magazines as well as ensure that it has a wide range of newspapers. Then, what is even more important in this computer age is the access to the Internet via computers. That way, the library will afford readers access to information worldwide, which would be very beneficial to the regular readers who do not have ready access to the Internet at home.
Since the staggering social advancement has rendered libraries all the more important to our lives, I would be grateful indeed if you take my proposals into serious consideration.
Yours sincerely,
Steve Atkins
