2)经典范文
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to you in order to apply for the New Star Scholarship.
As you can see from the attached grade sheet, I am one of the top students in my department. I have also represented the university at the 8th English Speaking Contest, where I was placed first. It is because I have attained such high standards that the Dean, Prof. Wang, suggested I apply for the scholarship. I believe that I do not only do well in my study, also contribute to campus life and our university in my extracurricular activities, particularly as departmental head of the Student Union.
Thank you in advance for considering my application.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming

Dear Sir or Madam,
As a student to take CET-6 in this coming December, I am writing to ask if there are some high quality test preparation materials.
I wonder if you have the following books: a vocabulary book covering the 5,500 words for the CET-6 test as well as past test papers with keys and model essays and a Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, which I can turn for help. Besides, how should I pay for these books? By cash or by other means? Finally, if I order these books now, when can I get them and how will these books be sent to my house?
I would be grateful if you could give me an early reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming
