Dear member,

We are writing to tell you that the talk and slide show on The Gardens of Japan by Mr. Seiko has
been canceled because the speaker has been taken ill. Mr. Jones has kindly agreed to give his talk
on The Gardens of England again. I know that many of you have already heard Mr. Jones before
but I hope you will be happy to hear him once again.

1. Write an email to your friend. Write about 50 words. 

Dear Jade,
How are you these days? Long time no see. I hope this mail will help me find you
well. I am a member of garden club. There will be a talk show about garden by Mr.
Seiko soon that I have been looking forward for a long time. However, the meeting
has just been canceled because the speaker was ill. I was down in the dumps when I
heard the news. What should I do now?

Huynh Khanh Nhu.

2. Write an email to the manager of the club. Write about 120 - 150 words. 
Dear Sir or Madam,
My name is Huynh Khanh Nhu. I have been a member of the garden club for 3
months. I am writing this mail to express my feelings and my suggestions about the
issue that I have received from our club.

According to the notification, the show The Gardens of Japan by Mr.Seiko has just
been canceled due to his illness. Instead, the garden club changed Mr. Seiko’s show
into The Gardens of England show by Mr. Jones. Honestly, I was down in the dumps
when I heard this news since I have been waiting for Mr. Seiko’s show day by day. I
would like to give you some suggestions about this issue.

Firstly, I believe that would be great if we could wait until Mr. Seiko gets well. I
believe the other members also have the same thinking as mine since the previous
survey conducted last month showed that most of our club members voted for The
Garden of Japan by Mr.Seiko. I hope you can talk to Mr. Seiko and convince him to
reschedule the conversation to a date as soon as his condition improves.

I hope that my suggestions are taken into consideration. I look forward to receiving
your response as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,

Huynh Khanh Nhu.
