戴爾美語TOEFL托福試題與解題示範教學 2026年03月27日

You borrowed a book from your university library. Unfortunately, the book was accidentally damaged while you were carrying it in your backpack during a rainy day. Some pages became wet and slightly torn.

You feel responsible for the damage and want to contact the librarian to apologize and ask what you should do next.
Task
Write an email to the librarian. In your email, do the following:

• Apologize for damaging the book.
• Explain how the damage happened.
• Ask about the procedures or measures you should take to resolve the situation.

Write as much as you can and in complete sentences.

Your Response:

To: libraryhelp@university.edu
Subject: Damaged Library Book — Request for Assistance

Dear director,

My name is __________. I am writing this email to present a sincere apology. On the other day, I checked out a book, Quantum Physics written by Albert Einstein. It was safely stashed in the backpack. However, on my way home, I was caught by a torrential rain, which soaked up my backpack since it was not waterproof. Also, the book, being wet, was torn in the process of travel as moisture made the book particularly vulnerable.
In this scenario, I feel I am totally responsible for the damage and I am willing to compensate for the loss of your asset. I have come up with a few possible solutions. The first is to pay for the book directly. Another alternative is to locate another copy of the book in the second-hand bookstore with the book in good condition. Or, if you could manage to fix the torn corners of the few pages, I am also willing to pay for any fees generated. Once again, I am deeply sorry for all the inconvenience, and I am open to any of the countermeasures. Thank you.

Best regards,

_______
