s mother]! Thank you so much for asking me.
Truly Yours
亲爱的[王华]:
我将愉快地参加您于[4月x日（星期二）下午1时]举行的午宴。
[鲍勃]经常向我提起[王晖]，并经常谈到与他[同住一室/为队友]是多么愉快。虽然
我还没有见过他，但因为听到有关他的事情多，好像已经认识他了。 我相信，同[王晖的妈妈]相会一定会使人非常愉快，非常感谢您的邀请。
2. 谢绝不相识的人的邀请 Apologizing for being unable to accept an invita
tion
Dear [Mrs. Brown]:
I have heard so much about [Lambert] from [Jane] that I almost feel as though I knew him. I would certainly enjoy meeting his mother! But unfortunately I expect guests myself on [Friday, the seventh of May]; and therefore cannot accept your invitation for luncheon on that day. It was thoughtful of you to invite me, and I am extremely sorry I cann
ot accept, I do hope you will ask me again some time!
Sincerely yours,
亲爱的[布朗]:
我已经从[简]那里知道了许多关于[兰伯特]的事，我好像已经认识他似的，能够
去见他母亲我当然觉得十分荣幸！
但是很不凑巧:在[5月x日（星期五）]我自己要招待客人， 因此就不能接受您
在那天的午宴邀请了。
承您如此热情地相约，恰巧因事不能前往，深表歉意，但愿以后能再次荣获您的
邀请。
