Dear Sir or Madam,

I’m glad that the 2016 International Horticultural Exposition will be held in Tangshan. I’m writing to apply to be a volunteer. In my opinion, I meet all the requirements.

To begin with, I have a good command of English and can speak English fluently. So there is no doubt that I have no difficulty communicating with foreigners. Besides, I’m outgoing, warm-hearted, and quick in mind, which I think is a basic quality for a volunteer. Above all, as a native of Tangshan, I know this city and its culture very well. So I’m sure that the visitors will appreciate my work and enjoy their stay in our city.

Looking forward to your reply.

W: Compared with the city, this is really like a fairyland.

M: Yes, you are right. By the way, why do you come here?
