Sample Essay
Dear Customer Service Center,
I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with an electronic dictionary I purchased from your online store last week.
Upon arrival, I discovered that the device has several technical issues. Specifically, the screen flickers constantly, and some keys do not respond when pressed. As a student who relies on this tool for academic research, these problems are highly inconvenient. I demand a prompt solution to this matter. I would appreciate it if you could either replace the faulty dictionary with a new one or provide a full refund.
Looking forward to your quick response.
Yours sincerely,
Zhang Wei
