  Jack,

  Here are the two tickets I mentioned yesterday for the Beijing Opera “Farewell To My Concubine”. You may bring anybody along with you. I hope you‘ll enjoy it.

  Judy,

  Write to Frank for me. Tell him I‘m sorry he’s not well and I wish he’d recover soon. Propose September 2 lunch meeting.

  Give Bill a call and apologize to him. I can‘t be at his daughter’s birthday party this evening because of the task of receiving an important delegation. Wish her a happy birthday.

  Thanks.

  D.H.

  Ted,

  Is there any way we could meet for lunch today? I need to consult you about the reception of Nanyang Industrial Co., Ltd. They will open a new branch in Pudong on August 8, next Thursday.

  I think we have to cancel the appointment with Mr. Zhang of Bank of China. Contact me as soon as possible.

  Dear Carlos,

  After graduation is a great time to have a party. Being at your house is always lots of fun. My parents will be coming, too.

  Thanks for the invitation.

  Dear Carlos,

  I wish I could attend your graduation party. I know it will be lots of fun. Unfortunately my parents have already invited several of our relatives over for a celebration. I wonder if you could come on Saturday evening so you can tell me all about the party.

  Your friend,
