Dear Sir,
I am writing to you about my stay at your hotel. My wife and I arrived on Saturday, 15th May and stayed for a week. Though we were treated well and found the service excellent, we think there are one or two matters we should bring your attention.
1. We had hoped for a nice holiday from our busy work lives, and your advertisement said “comfortable and quiet”. We want to have a chance to enjoy ourselves. However, we were always woken up by the noise every morning. Is it really necessary for the workers to start their repair work so early?
2. We had hoped to swim in your “wonderful pool”. To our disappointment(失望), we found that it was closed for the whole time of our stay.
I hope you do not mind my writing to you about these things, but I would be happy if you could give me some explanation. As I said at the start, it is a pity, and your service is so good in other fields.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Yours sincerely
Mr. Hector Bradley

What?s the meaning of “dark horse”? It?s someone who wins when no one expects it.
Han Xiaopeng took China?s first gold on snow. He became an Olympic “dark horse” last Thursday by winning the gold medal in men?s freestyle aerial skiing (自由式滑雪空中技巧) at Turin in Italy. He made two almost perfect jumps for the highest score. Han had never won a world gold medal before, let alone (更不用说) in the Olympics!
“I never thought this would happen,” said the 23-year-old. “I feel like I?m in a dream.” It?s China?s second gold medal at the Turin Olympics. But more important, Han?s gold was the country?s first ever in a snow sport. In 2002, China?s Yang Yang won the gold for speed skating at the winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, US.
Just because Han?s win was unexpected doesn?t mean that he didn?t work hard.
Han grew up in Jiangsu Province. Before he started his training on snow, he used to be an acrobat (杂技演员) at a circus. In 1995, a coach found his talent (才能). The coach, Yang Er?qi, said Han had the agil ity (灵活性) and courage to be a ski jumper. When Yang first took the 12-year-old to northern China, the boy couldn?t swim, skate
