Yours,
Li Hua
【参考范文】
Dear_Jane,
I’m_pleased_to_receive_your_letter_asking_about_information_about_China’s_highspeed_trains.
First, the maximum speed of the highspeed trains in China can reach 350 kilometers per hour,
which greatly shortens the time spent on the journey. Second,highspeed trains are safer and more comfortable.What’s more,
they have larger space to hold more people. The most important point is that the highspeed trains use less fuel,
so they cause less pollution and make less noise at the same time. Besides, highspeed railways take up less land.
A survey showed that the land needed to build highspeed railways is only half of that needed to build highways.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li_Hua
