Dear Mr Wang,

We’re happy to know that you are our new neighbor. People here are friendly and helpful. But there is one thing we’d like to talk to you about. We know you are very outgoing and have lots of friends, but would you mind not making so big sound every night when you have parties at your home? The big sound makes it difficult to have a rest, especially

for the children. They couldn’t sleep well. If they don’t have enough sleep at night, they will fall asleep in class the next day. That annoys us a lot. And also, would you mind telling your friends not to put their bikes in the hallway? When your friends come over, they often put their bikes everywhere in the hallway and that makes it difficult for us to get into our houses! We can’t stand it!

We hope we can get along well in the future.

Your neighbors,

Li Chen and Liu Yang
