Dear Tom，

Hearing that you decide to relax yourself in summer vacation after graduation， I want to recommend some destinations to you.

It would be possible for you to go to Dalian if you like a peaceful life. Bathing in the sunshine may well help you relieve your pressure. There is a possibility that you can go diving and enjoy the beautiful view. Obviously， Beijing would probably suit you if you want to have a better understanding of China.

Anyway， book rooms and tickets in advance， for its out of the question that you find a good hotel in peak season. Besides， dont carry all your money in cash. You may stand a good chance of having your money stolen while travelling. If possible， take a credit card with you just in case.

Wish you a happy journey！

Yours，

Li Hua

這篇作文的大部分句子都用了“表達(dá)一種可能性”的寫(xiě)法。這是為了展示“在這種情況下，我們可以這樣表達(dá)”，并不推薦同學(xué)們把作文寫(xiě)成這樣，因?yàn)槿恼鲁錆M了這樣的句子是不自然的。
