IV 短文改错:
Dear Li Ming,
I have received your letter just now. Don't worry about me. I'm getting on well with my research works in the lab. But to my surprise you say you will give up learn English. The reason is because you have not done well in it recently and you have lost interesting. I'm afraid I can't agree with you. I know it is not easy to learn English, and English is widely used in the world today and it will be important tool in their future work. Besides, it is becoming more and more important in our daily life. If you study hard, and you will succeed. Do remember that where there is a will there is a way. I'm seeing forward to hearing good news from you.
Yours, Liu Dong
