范文：
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am a senior student from Tianjin University, and I wonder if you could spare some time to help me look for two reference books, Communication Principles and Organizational Communication, both published by Foreign Language Press in 2000.
The two books are of particular importance to my graduation thesis, but I failed to obtain them from my university library as well as local bookstores. Could you please tell me whether the National Library has the mentioned books? If so, could you please do me the favor of photocopying and sending them to me by EMS? I would like to pay for the relevant expense by cash or credit card.
Looking forward to a prompt reply from you.
Sincerely yours,
Li Ming

尊敬的先生或女士：
我是天津大學(xué)的一名大四學(xué)生，不知道是否可以占用您的一點(diǎn)時(shí)間幫我找兩本參考書(shū)？它們分別是《傳播學(xué)原理》和《組織傳播學(xué)》，都是由外語(yǔ)出版社于2000年出版。
這兩本書(shū)對(duì)于我的正在寫(xiě)作的畢業(yè)論文有著特別的重要意義，但是我在我們的大學(xué)圖書(shū)館和當(dāng)?shù)貢?shū)店都沒(méi)有找到它們。不知道國(guó)家圖書(shū)館是否藏有著兩本書(shū)？如果有的話(huà)，不知您是否可以幫我復(fù)印一下并用特快專(zhuān)遞寄給我呢？關(guān)于相關(guān)費(fèi)用我會(huì)通過(guò)現(xiàn)金或者信用卡的形式進(jìn)行支付。
希望能夠盡快得到您的答復(fù)。
您真誠(chéng)的，
李明
