Dear Bill,
What shocking news to me when I was told by Mr. Lewis that you could not pass the entrance examination. This means you have to wait for another year to attend the next entrance examination. I quite understand how you feel now. Still you have many more chances to try. So I hope that you will not take this to heart, and will get ready to try again. I am sure you will easily succeed next time.
Yours,
Elizabeth

亲爱的比尔：
我在刘易斯先生那里获悉你入学考试落榜，深感惋惜。这意味着你要等待明年再考了。我很能理解你目前的心境。但你仍有很多机会，所以希望你别太往心里去，做好下次考试的准备。我深信你明年一定能获得成功。
你的
伊丽莎白
