Dear Ms. Clark,

I hope you are doing well. I am writing because I am the event coordinator for our school drama club’s upcoming play. This performance is important because it is one of the club’s biggest events of the semester and will help attract more students and families to support our program.

I would like to ask whether your shop can print promotional materials such as posters and flyers. Could you also let me know the cost for different quantities and the estimated turnaround time?

Thank you for your time. I look forward to your reply.

Best regards,

学术讨论（国际组织的维和作用）

Dr. Diaz

We have been looking at the role of international groups like the United Nations in supporting world peace and safety. Some people believe these organizations are necessary to keep global order. Others think they are not effective and need to be changed. What do you think about how well international organizations work to promote global peace and security?

Kelly

I think international organizations like the United Nations are crucial for promoting global peace and security. They provide a platform for dialogue and cooperation between countries and can help mediate conflicts before they escalate.

Andrew

In my opinion, international organizations often struggle to enforce their decisions and can be slow to respond to crises. While they have good intentions, they need significant reforms to be more effective in addressing global challenges.

范文

I agree with Andrew that international organizations are important in theory, but they are often not effective enough in practice.

One reason is that these groups usually depend on cooperation from many countries, so decision-making can be very slow. When a crisis breaks out, they may spend too much time debating instead of taking immediate action. As a result, conflicts can worsen before meaningful help arrives.

Another problem is that international organizations often lack strong enforcement power. Even if they pass resolutions or make recommendations, countries do not always follow them. This means such organizations may encourage discussion, but they cannot always guarantee real change or long-term peace.

That said, I understand Kelly’s point that these groups provide a useful space for dialogue. However, without faster responses and stronger authority, their overall impact on global peace and security remains limited.

You have received an item you ordered from your university's online store, but you are not satisfied with its quality.

Write an email to the customer service department. In your email, you should:

• Describe the specific problem with the item you received

• Propose a solution that would satisfy you

• Provide feedback on your overall online shopping experience

范文

Dear Customer Service,

I am writing regarding an item I recently ordered from the university’s online store. Although it arrived on time, I was disappointed with its quality. The material feels much thinner than expected, and there is also a small tear near one of the seams. Because of this, the item does not seem durable enough for regular use.

I would appreciate either a full refund or a replacement in better condition. Either solution would be satisfactory to me.

Overall, the shopping process was convenient and the delivery was prompt, but the product quality did not meet my expectations.

Best regards,

Sara Hu

学术讨论

We often talk about how social media affects modern society. These platforms help connect people across the world and encourage the sharing of ideas. At the same time, they can also allow false information to spread and harm people's mental health. Do you believe social media has a

more positive or negative influence on society, and why?

Kelly

I believe social media has a positive impact on society. It allows people to stay connected with friends and family, share experiences, and access information quickly. Social media can also be a powerful tool for raising awareness about important issues.

Andrew

In my opinion, social media has a negative impact on society. It can spread misinformation quickly and contribute to mental health problems like anxiety and depression. People often compare themselves to others on social media, which can lead to feelings of inadequacy.

范文

I agree with Andrew that social media has a more negative influence on society because its harmful effects are often deeper than its benefits.

One reason is that social media allows false or misleading information to spread extremely quickly. Many users share content without checking whether it is accurate, so rumors and biased opinions can influence public thinking in harmful ways. This makes it harder for people to form balanced and well-informed views.

Another reason is that social media can damage mental health. People are constantly exposed to carefully edited images and success stories, which may lead them to compare themselves with others. As a result, they can feel insecure, anxious, or dissatisfied with their own lives.

I understand Kelly’s point that social media helps people stay connected and raise awareness. However, because it harms both public understanding and emotional well-being, its overall influence is more negative than positive.
