Subject: Sympathies on Your Illness
Dear Jacob,
I just heard that you are ill and I am quite worried about your situation. I am very anxious to know if you feel a little better now.
Our company has been busy in making preparation for the trade fair. As the project leader, you must have been working too hard some time ago. Though work is important, health is always the first priority of everything. Don't worry too much about your work. Please do rest up and take good care of yourself.
I will visit you in the hospital this Saturday morning. I am also sure that you will make a rapid recovery soon. All of us hope you can come back as soon as possible. With best regards.
Yours sincerely,
Noah

亲爱的雅各布：
我刚听说你生病了，非常担心你的现状。我很想知道，你现在是否感觉好些了。
我们公司一直在忙着为展览会做准备。作为项目负责人，你一定是前段时间工作太卖命了。工作固然重要，然而身体健康是第一位的。不要过于担心工作的事情。一定要好好养病。
我这周六会去医院探望你。我也相信你很快就能康复。我们大家都希望你早日回来。致以最好的问候。
真诚的
诺亚
学以致用
