As you know, [Prof. Tomson] is well known to the world for [his] great achievements in the field of [mathematics]. During [his] stay here, [he] has visited many universities and col-leges and given us many lectures on it. [He] has also made a tour to many parts of our country. [He] will leave for home [tomorrow morning]. We, therefore, sincerely, hope that [he] will benefit us with some advice and valuable suggestions.

Finally, we want to take this opportunity to beg [him] to convey our profound friendship and best regards to [his] people.

Now let’s invite [Prof. Tomson] to speak to us.

I am greatly [honored] once again to have an opportunity to visit your great country and meet with so many of its people. This visit has been full of [interesting] things and everything here left me a deep impression. I have visited factories, schools, farms and cultural institutions. I have talked with and make friends with many workers, farmers, clerks, scientists, artists, teachers and students. We discussed work and study and life together, and I have I learnt a lot during my short stay here. It has given me much better [understanding] of your country and peo-ple …….

I wish to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt [gratitude] to your again.

May the friendship ties between our two people be further developed and consolidated.
