The Problem with Television

Now I can t watch television but a little years ago I was used to watch it every night. I was often a little tired

after a day s work and watch TV demands very little effort. Unfortunate, there are too many people among my family. Some wanted to see the programme while others preferred another. I am happy with any programme but the others spent a lot time arguing and there was no way of settling the matter besides by selling the TV set. Now someone at home reads instead.

Dear Peter,

Thanks very much on inviting me to your birthday party on Sunday. I d like very much come but had an

examination on Monday morning. It is a very important exam but I can t afford to fail it. I ll spend all the whole weekend reading and prepare for it. So I m really sorry that I won t be able to come in this time. Hope you can understand. I ll take a chance to wish you wonderful time on your birthday. Happy birthday, Peter, and many happy return of the day!

Yours,

Li Ming
