Now we know the earth goes round the sun. It takes the earth a year to go all way round the sun. Today men even know how far it is for the earth to go round the sun. They tell us that the earth travels over a thousand miles a minute on its journey round the sun.

Dear sir,
The 2008 Olympic Games will be held in our capital, Beijing, which is a great honor for all the Chinese. I hope sincerely to be a volunteer to make contributions to this great event. Below is a brief introduction about myself.
I am 19 years old and now studying in Shanghai University. I like English very much and hence I’m quite good at it. I often practice my spoken English in my spare time. Now I can talk fluently with our foreign teachers. Besides English, I am also fond of sports.
I hope I can meet the requirements of being a volunteer.
Yours,
Li Ming。
