考研英语短文写作范文（二十七）

Mar. 8th Kate,

I wonder if you can lend me your MLA Handbook for Academic Writing. I am in the process of writing my graduation thesis, and need to consult the book now and then for standard formatting. Thus I might need to keep the book for about a month and a half, and I hope that would not bring any inconvenience to you. I assure you that I will maintain the book in good condition. If possible, please give me a call and I will come by your house to pick up the book. With many thanks,

Li Ming

 凯特：

　　不知你是否可以借我你的那本《MLA学术写作手册》一用呢?我现在正在准备写我的毕业论文，需要不时地参考那本书中的标准格式。因此，我需要这本书大约一个半月的时间，我希望不会因此给你带来麻烦。我保证我会好好保护这本书，不让其受损。如果可能的话，请给我一个电话，我可以来你家取书。 非常感谢。
