Subject: Casual Leave of Absence John, I would like to know if I could ask for a casual leave of absence from March 23 to 27.
YesterdayI received a letter from my parents, who are both over 70, telling methat a big flood took place at my home village, causing serious damageto my house. As the only son of my parents, I should of back to assessthe situation, and help them to get over these difficulties. Though Icannot stay at home for too long a time, I should at least makearrangements for repair work. I believe my relatives in the village andmy neighbors will also come to help. Financially I have nodifficulties.
I will call you at 1:30p.m. or you can call me at any time.
Dear Mr/Ms XXX;
Today I'm writing to you to ask for a five-day leave, for I've got cold last night with carlessness.
This morning my mother took me to see the doctor,who told me to stay in bed for some days. So I am very sorry to be absent from school, especially your interesting lessons. I'll be sure to make up for the missed lessons after I recover from the illness.
Yours ever,
XXX.
Dear Mr. Smith,
I am really sorry to tell you that I cannot attend the training course next Tuesday, because ny manager has appointed me to go on a 3-day business trip to Hainan. Will you please record the lecture for me to review later?
Thank you for your consideration.
Yours faithfully,
Li Ming
