　　Letter 1:

　　Dear Sir or Madam,

　　I am writing to you to complain about the food and service that we received at your restaurant on Monday, 28th February.

　　The first problem was that, although we had booked a table, we were squashed(挤，压)around a small table at the back of the restaurant near the toilet(厕所). It was very noisy and the smell was very unpleasant(令人不快的).

　　Secondly, during and after our meal, the service was bad. The waiter who delivered(端，送)soup to my wife had his thumb(拇指)in it. Another waiter spilt(溅洒)some custard(蛋奶沙司酱)on my mother-in-law’s lap(腿). In general(总之), the waiters were rude and the service was horrible(糟糕).

　　Finally, even though the reputation(声誉)of your restaurant is good, the food was mediocre(平庸的). The steak(牛排) was tough(硬的), the vegetables were over-cooked(烧得太过火)and the desserts(甜点)were stale(带霉味的). The food definitely(绝对)did not deserve(值，配得上)the price. Also, I think some of the food was bad because I and two members of my family had stomachaches the following day.

　　Since we feel we should be compensated(补偿)somehow(不管怎样), we ask you to refund the total cost of our meal. A copy of the bill is enclosed.

　　I hope to receive your reply shortly.

　　Yours faithfully

　　Kenny Gao

　　Letter 2:

　　Dear Mr. More,

　　Thank you for your letter dated(日期为)August 23, 2006. I was very pleased to learn that you will be visiting Shanghai from September 25 to 30. I hope the following information will help you enjoy your stay in my hometown.

　　First of all, Shanghai is a big and busy city. There are many international quality(质量)hotels and restaurants as well as shopping centers and entertainment(娱乐)places.

　　However, I think you would like to see some interesting places that well represent(代表)the city. I know you are interested in art and history, so firstly, I suggest you visit Shanghai Museum, one of the biggest in China.

　　Secondly, not far from the museum is the famous Bund(外滩), where you will also have a wonderful view of Pudong: the Oriental(东方的)Pearl(珍珠)TV Tower, and Jinmao Tower—the third highest building in the world! You will see people from all over the world touring around(游览)the Bund.

　　Other interesting places are Suzhou—a beautiful city that is famous for its gardens; Hangzhou, capital(省府，首都)of Zhejiang Province, which is very famous for its West Lake. If you would like to see an old-fashioned(老式的)village with the most distinctive(鲜明的)features(特征)of the region(地区)of waters in the Changjiang River Delta(长江三角洲), I will highly(高度，极力)recommend(推荐)Zhouzhuang, which is about a one-hour drive(开车)from Shanghai.

　　I hope these suggestions(建议)will be helpful. As you only have a short stay in Shanghai, you probably will not be able to do much more sightseeing. But if I can help in any other way, please let me know.

　　Looking forward to meeting you here in Shanghai!

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Kenny Gao
