Write a letter to one of your friends and invite him/her to Shanghai Grand Theater to watch the opera, Lion King, on this weekend. Do not sign your own name at the end of your letter, using “Li Ming” instead.
Dear Lisa,
We haven’t seen each other since graduation from high school. I’m very glad to hear that you are going to visit me this Friday and I have prepared a gift for you. Do you know the opera, Lion King is now on at Shanghai Grand Theater? As I know, you are always interested in music and art. Therefore, I have bought two tickets. Would you like to go with me?
I have arranged for you to sleep in my dormitory for Friday night so that we can talk freely about anything we like. The opera is at 14: 30 on Saturday. We’d better set out immediately after lunch.
I’m sure you will enjoy the opera. Looking forward to your coming.
Sincerely yours,
Li Ming

We are very glad to hear that you are attending an international conference in Beijing. We are writing this letter to inquiry the possibility of inviting you to deliver a lecture on American literature for our postgraduate students on the evening of June 16.
We have long been noticed that you have done a lot of substantial and creative work in this field. Two of your books have become textbooks for our students for several years. So all of us believe your lecture will benefit our students and teaching staff alike.

We are looking forward to your coming.
