　　Dear Bob,

　　I am writing this letter to express my apologies for I have mistakenly brought back the CD I borrowed from you during my stay in your house.

　　The CD you lent me helped me a lot to pass the exam that was so important to me. I didn’t realize that I still had the CD with me until I opened my luggage when I returned home. Now I am thinking about sending it back to you, so please tell me whether I should send it to your home address or to your work unit.

　　I am very sorry for the inconvenience I may have caused you. I hope someday you will come to China and I will have the opportunity to repay your kindness and hospitality. Wish you all the best!

　　( 137 words )

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Li Ming

　　新航道大作文

　　As can be seen from the cartoon, two handicapped men are bound together. They are walking at a high speed and with great confidence. Obviously, their physical disadvantages do not disable them.

　　This cartoon is thought-provoking and reveals to us a solid truth: solidarity makes us strong. On the one hand, no one is lucky enough to be advantageous in all aspects. We do need the help of others to achieve higher goals. On the other hand, the challenges and difficulties we may face are always so tough that we have to work together to get out of a tight spot. Therefore it is no exaggeration to say that united we stand, divided we fall.

　　As far as I am concerned, I often attach great importance to cooperation. Living in the one-child age, I find teamwork not only brings me more opportunities, but also makes me more powerful. I firmly believe success relies on many factors, among which cooperation undoubtedly accounts for much.
