At the request of Mr. Xizhen Chen, my former student in the Department of Computer Science, Beijing Univ. of Sciences, I am glad to write this letter furnishing my evaluation of his academic aptitude for your reference. Mr. Chen is interested in your graduate program in Computer Science.
I came to know him in September 1987 when Mr. Chen enrolled in my class on FORTRAN IV Programming, a three semesters' course. In the class he was one of the most outstanding students. At the semester final he earned a high grade of 81, which should be "A" according to our grading system. I also found him good at other studies.
After the class, he had personal talks with me several times. He indicated a great interest in computer hardware, In my opinion, Mr. Chen has a potential in Computer Science, which can be further developed.
In view of his previous achievements in this College, I am firmly convinced that Mr. Chen will make a successful graduate student. Your favorable consideration of his admission will be highly appreciated.

職場貼士：在工作當中總是會面臨各種職場百態，與其想要改變環境、他人，倒不如先改變自己，如果能夠抱持輕松樂觀的態度來面對，會比郁悶、感嘆來的有意義多了。假設同事比自己更得到老板的賞識與信賴，可別老是怨嘆上層識人不明，不妨想著同事肯定能力比自己強，而要鍛煉更多的本事來贏過對方。多一點的自嘲，以及多一點的阿Q精神，你將會發現樂觀思考的神奇力量。
