Dear Mr. John,

      How are things going with you in Beijing?

      I am writing to show my thanks to you. You tutored me in my spoken English before you went to Beijing. With your help I made such rapid progress that I won the first place in the Spoken English Competition of the city. My achievement is owed to your help. Thank you very much.

     I have heard that you and your wife will pay a visit to my school. I am very glad at the news. In that case we can see each other again. I am looking forward to your coming. I am sending you a telescope as a small gift. I hope you will like it.

     All the best.

                                                                      Yours,

                                                                     Liu Jie

亲爱的约翰先生：

    您在北京过得怎么样?

    我写信向您表达我的谢意。去北京前您辅导我的英语口语。在您的帮助下我很快取得进步，所以能在市里举办的英语口语比赛中取得第一名。我的成绩应该归功于您的帮助。非常感谢。

    我听说您和您的夫人要来我们学校访问。听到这个消息我非常高兴。那样的话我们就又可以见面了。期盼着您的到来。我给您寄去一件小礼物“望远镜”。希望您喜欢。

    万事如意。

    您的朋友  刘杰
