Dear Sir or Madam:
1 am writing with regard to damage to my suitcase incurred during a recent trip to Italy. I was traveling from Milan to Gatwick Airport on Jetline flight JT23 on May 14, and on picking up my suitcase from the baggage claim at Gatwick, I found that the latch was badly damaged and the handle had become detached from the suitcase on one side. I reported this to the Jetline office at Gatwick and completed a property-irregularity form.
I have had the suitcase looked at by a local luggage retailer, Simpsons Limited, to see if they could repair it. They feel that they can only partially repair it (enclosed is a copy of their estimate), and they would suggest a replacement. I would therefore be pleased if you could reimburse me for the cost of a new suitcase as indicated in Simpsons’ estimate. Due to the amount of damage to the suitcase, I was unable to travel from the airport by public transport as planned and had to take a taxi. I would also ask you to reimburse me for the taxi fare, which was £45.00.
                                                                         Yours sincerely,
                                                                          Richard Turner
                                                                          Richard Turner

                                Tel: 01203 431796
                                Estimate of Repair
                                                                           Date: May 17
Item to be repaired: Large dark green cloth suitcase manufactured by Crossleys, Ltd.
Nature of repair:       Replace damaged latch, reattach handle
Estimated cost:        £20.00 (but see note below)
Notes: Although the latch can be replaced, it will not be possible to reattach the handle securely (damage to handle attachment on suitcase body). The cost to replace it with a similar model is £105.00 (Dixons executive suitcase, model X23).
What is the purpose of the letter?

选项 A、To report some lost property
B、To claim some expenses
C、To complain about a flight
D、To request a copy of a form

答案B

解析 claim意为“索赔”。expense意为“费用”。从信的第一段第一句…to damage to my suitcase…“手提箱损坏”、第二段第二三句I would therefore…estimate.“因此我很希望贵公司…依新手提箱的金额予以赔偿”等内容可得知。(A)未提及lost property“遗失物品”。(C)并无对flight“班机”有所不满的相关信息。(D)信中虽提及form“表格”,但这并不是写信的目的。
