I am writing to complain about a pair of sneakers I recently purchased from your website. What I ordered was a pair of black size-nine shoes but I received a pair of white, size-8.5 shoes. Worse still, there was a ten-day delay in delivering my shoes, which should have reached me on April 10th. For the above reasons, I demand either a new pair of black size-nine shoes be posted me immediately or I be give a full refund. By the way, if I send back the wrong shoes, will your company pay for the postage?

A Letter to the University President about the Canteen Service on Campus
Jan. 6th, 2002
Dear Mr. President,
My name is Li Ming. I am a junior student of the civil engineering school in this university. I I venture to write you a letter about the canteen service on campus, which has given rise to many complaints among students.
The focus of the complaint is the poor quality of the food. For one thing, the rice is very hard, the steamed breads are usually sold cold and vegetables are often overcooked. For another, the prices of the foods are surprisingly high. Honestly speaking, the dining environment has been improved since last year. But there are still not enough space and seats for us to have our meals there. Besides, the attitude of the canteen staffs is not hospitable at all.
All in all, there is still much room for improvement. I do hope we will not suffer another year. Thank you for your time and kind consideration.
Sincerely yours.
Li.

投诉信写作学案答案
One possible version: Last month, I bought an MP3 made by your company, which brought me enjoyment for some time. But last week, something went wrong with the screen and I can’t see anything on it. I have talked about this with the shop which sold me this MP3, but they/it couldn’t do anything about it. Having no choice, I turn to you for help. I hope you can get me a new one or return my money to me.
