Dear Professor Byron,
Last week you asked students to write and give you feedback on your lectures. Therefore, I have outlined my thoughts below.
In general, I find your lectures very informative and inspiring. Indeed, I particularly like the way you demonstrate complex issues with the use of simple drawings. This makes your lessons both interesting and memorable. However, I do feel that you could provide us with more handouts, as I often don’t have time to take down all the important points. I would also like to see more discussion work, as I find this method the most suitable way to clarify and deepen my understanding of the subject content.
I’d like to thank you for the interest you are taking in your students and look forward to your next lecture.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming

尊敬的拜伦教授:
上周您要求学生写信告诉您关于您课程的反馈。因此,我已列明我的想法如下。
总而言之,我发现您的课程信息量大、令人鼓舞。事实上,我非常喜欢您使用简单图画来阐明复杂问题的方式。这使得您的课程既有趣又令人印象深刻。然而,由于我经常没时间记下所有的要点,我确实感到您能给我们提供更多的印刷讲义。由于我发现课堂讨论是澄清和加深我对课程内容理解的最佳方式,因此我想有更多的课堂讨论。
非常感谢您对学生的关注,期待您的下次课程。
您真诚的,
李明

道长点评
建议信首段应表明写作意图,简要介绍自己,注意语气,切勿罗嗦。次段应针对情况提出具体建议或忠告,应首先肯定优点,再写需要改进,否则对方以为是投诉而非建。尾段应总结建议,注意礼貌原则。建议信很容易写成议论文,应时刻考虑读者感受,给对方提建议时经常提到I和you。

预测范文
Dear George,
I hear that you are planning a sightseeing trip in China. Well, I have just returned from a place I am sure you will enjoy. It is Xi’an, the capital of Shaanxi Province, and one of the most wonderful tourist destinations in the country.
Xi’an, called Chang’an in the old days, was the capital of seven dynasties, and so the place is full of ancient relics. I spent one week there, and didn’t have the chance to see even half of them. But the major attractions are the terracotta warriors guarding the tomb of China’s first emperor, the Flying Goose Pagoda and the Banpo Prehistoric Village.
Xi’an boasts plenty of modern hotels and restaurants, but they are not particularly cheap, so take lots of money with you. I hope you have as much fun as I had.
Yours,
Li Ming

亲爱的乔治:
我听说你计划来中国旅游。好吧,我刚从一个地方回来,你肯定会喜欢。就是西安,陕西省的省会,中国最精彩的旅游目的地之一。
西安过去也称长安,是七朝古都,因此遍地古迹。我在那儿住了一周,都没能参观完一半的景点。但主要的景点是守护中国第一位皇帝的兵马俑,大雁塔以及半坡史前遗址。
西安拥有众多现代饭店,但它们并不便宜,因此多带点钱吧。我希望你也像我一样开心。
