　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　June 11th, 2009
Dear Bill,
I'm writing to tell you that I would like to watch the Irish Tap Dance with you very much. I've been learning to dance for almost a year, yet so far I have never had a chance to watch a group of professional people dancing on the stage. If I should be granted such a good opportunity, I would very much appreciate it as it will surely boost my interest in learning Irish culture and make much more progress in dancing.
Please let me know if you could spare a ticket for me. Looking forward to your favorable reply.
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Sincerely yours,
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Zhang Hua
