内容正文:
假定你是李华,你自制了一些中国结(Chinese knot)。请你给开网店的美国朋友Tom写一封信,请他代卖。要点包括:
1.外观(尺寸、颜色、材料);
2.象征意义;
3.价格。
Dear Tom,
How are you doing?❶I wonder if you could sell some Chinese knots for me.I made them myself with red silk threads,cloth and other materials.They look really beautiful in the shape of a diamond,about 5 inches long and 4 inches wide.In China,these knots stand for friendship,love and good luck.
People can either give them as gifts to friends or hang them in their houses.They are only $12.99 each.❷If anyone wants to know more about the knots,let them write to me.Also,do let me know if you need further information.
Thank you!
Yours,
Li Hua
