Dear Ms Smith,
I’m writing to ask whether you could do me favor. I’ve just finished an essay naming “Differences between traditional Chinese and Western festivals”,so I’m not sure whether it is well written. To be honestly,I’m not that familiar with some traditional Western festivals. That’s because I’m turning to you for help. I’d appreciate it if you could spare some time to look through your essay for possible mistakes and polish them. Also,I’m looking forward to your valuable advices. My essay has been sending to you along with this email. I hope it won’t cause you very much more trouble.
Thank you by advance.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Many college students complain about dormitory life: a sweltering room without air﹣conditioning in summer and a dormitory gate which is closed at 11 pm. But they may miss their dormitories after graduation,when they have to spend as much as a third of their income renting a shabby room.
The rising prices of daily necessities, including food, water, gas and electricity, are also making graduates save every penny to make ends meet.
Faced with the high cost of living, college graduates need to make every penny work when they budget their income.
When it comes to renting, try to spend no more than one third of your income on it.Better still, only spend a quarter, according to Hao Qian, a career consultant(咨询师).
Hao also reminds graduates to set aside about one fifth of their income for social activities. "People have spent more on their social lives because of changes in forms of entertainment,"said Hao. For example, new friends may want to meet you at a quiet club instead of at a noisy house.
In spite of the high cost of living, many college graduates still, try to stay in big cities.They usually work in industries such as finance, public relations and IT, which depend on a booming city economy and technology.
Hao advises such graduates to reduce their expenditure on shopping as much as possible."If you are not in jobs such as PR and sales which require you to dress well, you don't need to spend much on clothes and " accessories ," said Hao."Spend less than one eighth of your monthly income on shopping. "
