　　亲爱的先生：

　　我写信的目的是确认我丢失的一张信用卡。我今天早些时候曾致电您的办公室。

　　Dear Sir,

　　I am writing to confirm the loss of my credit card. I telephoned your office earlier today.

　　我那张卡的细节如下：这是一张万事达卡，户名是Kenny Gao，号码是3241 3578 6688，我从1999年到现在一直在用着它，其有效期是1999－2008。

　　我是昨天（2006年9月8日）早上十点半左右丢失它的。我当天唯一用卡的时间是在金桥路上的加乐福购买一双运动鞋时。无意间，我将卡留在了付款台上了，但店里的服务人员没能找到它。

　　I lost the card yesterday (September 8, 2006) at about 10:30 in the morning. The only time I used the card that day was to buy a pair of sports shoes at Carrifour on Jinqiao Road. By accident, I left the card at the cashier’s, but the shop assistants there could not find the card.

　　谢谢您的协助，期盼收到您的答复。

　　您真诚的
