　　Subject: Sick Leave of Absence

　　Dear Mr. Liu,

　　Yesterday afternoon, I went swimming because of the hot weather. Unfortunately, I caught a cold and I felt a headache. This morning I went to see the doctor. He told me to take two days off and have a good rest. Therefore, I would like to know if I could ask for a sick leave of absence from today to tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, I will come back to school.

　　亲爱的刘老师：

　　昨天下午，由于天气炎热我去游泳了。不幸的是，我感冒了，而且有点头痛。今天早上我去看医生了，他要我休息两天，好好休息。因此，我想知道我可不可以请今明两天的病假。后天我就可以回学校了。
