letter of thanks

dear mr. smith,

i am writing to you just to tell you how very much i appreciate the warm welcome you extended to my wife when she visited your country last week.

the help and advice you gave to her, and the introductions you arranged for her, have resulted in a number of very useful meetings and i should like you to know how very grateful i am for all you have done to make them possible.

i realized the value of time to a busy person like you and this makes me all the more appreciative of the time you so generously gave to her..

敬爱的史密斯先生：

我写此信是想告诉您我是多么感激您在我太太上周访问贵国时给予他的热情款待。

你给予她的协助和宝贵意见，以及为她安排的情况介绍，使她有机会开成几次十分有用的会议，这一切都得助于您才得以办成，我对此真是感激不尽。

我深知时间对于像您一样忙的人是多么宝贵，而您如此慷慨地拿出时间接待她，我为此要向您表示无限的感谢。
