情境:你本周因突发疾病错过小组展示,写邮件向教授申请在下周二补做。 要求:
Dear Professor Lee,
I am writing to ask whether I could make up my group presentation, which was scheduled for this Thursday. I came down with a high fever on Wednesday and was advised by the clinic to rest for a few days, so I was unable to attend class or prepare my part.
Would it be possible to present next Tuesday after the lecture instead? I have already discussed the arrangement with my group members, and they are available at that time.
Could you let me know what steps I should take to make this official? I would be happy to provide a doctor’s note if needed.
Thank you very much for your understanding.
Best regards, Li Hua
情境:你宿舍空调坏了,写邮件给宿管请求维修,并说明 urgency。 要求:
Hi Alex,
I’m writing about the air conditioner in Room 312 — it stopped cooling two days ago and now makes a loud rattling noise at night. Because of the heat, I have barely been able to sleep, which is starting to affect my classes.
Could you let me know when a repair person might be available to take a look? If a visit this afternoon is possible, that would be great.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Best, Chen
情境:你想加入摄影社团,写邮件询问招新时间和是否需要作品集。 要求:
Hello,
I’m a second-year student and have been into photography for years. I’d love to join the Photography Club and was wondering when the recruitment period starts this semester.
Could you tell me how to sign up — is there an online form or an info session? Also, do new members need to submit a portfolio, or is everyone welcome regardless of experience?
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Best, Wang Fang
情境:你的期末论文因实验数据出问题需要更多时间,写邮件向教授申请宽限 3 天。 要求:
Dear Dr. Smith,
I am writing about the final paper for your seminar, due this Friday. I have completed the literature review and most of the analysis, but I recently discovered an error in my experimental dataset that affects the results section.
Would it be acceptable to submit the paper by next Monday instead? This would give me enough time to re-run the affected trials and verify the findings. I assure you this will be the only extension I request, and the revised paper will meet all requirements.
Thank you for your patience and guidance.
Sincerely, Maria Chen
情境:公寓暖气失灵,你写邮件给房东要求维修,并提及合同义务。 要求:
Dear Mr. Johnson,
The heating in my apartment (Unit 5B) has not worked for over a week, and indoor temperatures have dropped below 15°C at night. I tried using a space heater, but the circuit breaker trips whenever I run it for long.
As stated in our lease, the landlord is responsible for maintaining heating. Could you arrange for a technician to fix this as soon as possible? Given the cold weather, this has become urgent.
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter.
Best regards, Sofia
情境:你临时有事需取消和同学的图书馆复习之约,写邮件改到明天同一时间。 要求:
Hey Mia,
So sorry — something urgent just came up and I can’t make our library session at 3 today. A family member needs a ride to the airport, and I just found out.
Could we meet at the same time tomorrow instead? I really don’t want to fall behind on the econ problem set, so I’d prefer not to skip.
Let me know if tomorrow works for you, or suggest another slot!
Thanks, Jess
