PART B_1
Let’s read the text below. Please read it aloud, and I will check your pronunciation and intonation.
PART B_2
TO: Jack Loomis, Boyd Corporation
FROM: Rhonda Li, Dome Electronics
DATE: May 18
SUBJECT: Request for a new deadline

I am sorry to have to report that we experienced difficulty implementing the changes you made last week to the specifications for the BX350 bike lamp. As a result, the production of the first batch of lamps is running behind schedule.
We can deliver 100 lamps by the initial deadline of May 25, but must ask for a new deadline for the remaining 400.
At this point, June 5 would be a realistic date to aim for.
I realize this gives you only five days to fit your new line of bikes with the lamps before the launch date of June 10.
Needless to say, the lamps are far better with the specification changes, and we hope for your understanding concerning this matter.
