Specimen 1 Letters1. Offering Rayon in Place of Watered Silk提供人造丝代替水洗丝Dear Sirs,Thank you for your fax of yesterday (April 3) with your order No.456 for 5,000 metres of 100cm wide watered silk.
We are sorry we can no longer supply this silk. Fashions constantly change and in recent years the demand for watered silk has fallen to such an extent that we have ceased to produce it.
In its place we can offer you our new "Gossamer 2" brand of rayon. This is a finely woven, hard wearing, non-creasable material with a most attractive lustre 3. The large number of repeat orders we regularly receive from leading distributors and dress manufacturers is clear evidence of the popularity of this brand. At the low price of only stg. £1.80 a metre this rayon is much cheaper than silk and its appearance is just attractive.
We are sending you by parcel post a sample cutting for your reference hoping you may be interested in our new article.
We are awaiting your order with keen interest.
Yours faithfully,Notes1. substitute n. 代替物,代用品use plastics as a substitute for wood 用塑料做木材的代用品We should like to take opportunity to offer you the following material as a close substitute for your consideration. 我们借此机会向你方提供下列材料作为替代品供参考。
