问候车祸函

July 2, 2005
Dear Mr. Henry Chen,
I received a letter from my brother the other day saying that you had had an accident on your motorbike. My brother didn’t give me any details. I hope your injuries are not serious.
I wish you a speedy recovery. Take good care of yourself, and if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.
Sincerely,
Susie Wang

亲爱的陈亨利先生：
我前几天接到哥哥的来信说你在骑摩托车时发生了意外。我哥哥并没有告诉我详情。我希望你受的伤不会很严重。
但愿你很快康复。请好好保重，如果有任何我可以帮得上忙的地方，请告诉我。
