Dear John,
My name is Li Ming and I am writing to tell you that I will soon be going to London to study and be your roommate. I am genuinely delighted to have such an experience and I would like to introduce myself and seek some advice from you.
I can perfectly fit in an international lifestyle despite some possible culture differences. I may use the kitchen every other day and take showers at night, but I assure you I will minimize any inconvenience that I may cause. Besides, because this is the first time I study abroad, it would be really nice of you if you could give me some suggestions about everyday life such as food, shopping, climate and transportation.
Thank you for your consideration and I am convinced that we will get on well in the UK.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming

参考范文
The bar chart illustrates the urban population and rural population changes in China from 1990 to 2010. There were only 300 million people living in cities while 834 million people still lived in the countryside in 1990. However, in 2000, city population increased by more than fifty percent to 458 million while rural population only had a minor decrease. The most recent statistics in 2010, however, showed that the number of those who dwelled in cities had increased to almost equivalent to that of those in the countryside, with 666 million and 674 million respectively.
This trend has reflected a rapid urbanization process of China. Many factors may have accelerated this process, including the privileged income, infrastructure, healthcare and education in cites, as well as the limited benefits of agriculture caused by shrinking arable lands.
Urbanization does not mean the mere substitution of cities for villages, and to make urbanization more scientific, the government should pay more attention to the problems caused by the floating population. Meanwhile, measures that may shorten the gap between urban areas and rural areas appear to be a major concern in the future.
参考译文
这张柱形图展现了1990年到2010年间中国城镇人口和乡村人口的变化情况。在1990年，只有3亿人生活在城镇而在农村生活的人口高达8.34亿，但在2000年，城镇人口迅猛增长了超过50%，达到4.58亿，而农村人口却呈少量下降。最近的数据表明，2010年住在城市里的人和住在乡村里的人口数量几乎一样，分别为6.66亿和6.74亿。
这一趋势反映了中国快速的城市化进程。有许多因素在加速这一进程，包括城市在收入、基础设施、医疗和教育上有更高的水平，以及耕地缩小导致的农业利益的局限性。
城市化不仅仅等同于把村庄替换为城市。如果要使城市化更科学，政府就要更加留意城市流动人口带来的问题。同时，还应该采取措施来缩小城乡差距，乡村地区显然是未来的一个主要关注点。
