GENERAL WRITING TASK 1
GENERAL WRITING TASK 1
You recently attended a party, where you saw one of the guests being rude to a neighbour in the next house.
– Write an letter to the guest,
– complaining about their behaviour
– suggesting that the guest apologises to the neighbour
– asking them not to behave like this again
SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Gilbert,
I think I need to write to you because of your behaviour at the party last week. This was meant to be a relaxed and friendly occasion, but I must say that you spoiled it by the way you spoke to the neighbour, Mrs. Ranu. This lady is much older than you, and deserves to be treated with respect by all of us. We were all pretty shocked when you refused to turn down the music when she asked you to.
I do feel that you should go to see Mrs. Ranu, and apologise for being so impolite. If you’re embarrassed to do so, then you should at least write her a note saying that you’re sorry, and saying that you hope she was not too offended or upset by your actions.
I also think that you need to make a greater effort to control your temper, and not to speak to people without thinking first of the way your words might be received. There’s another party coming up next weekend, and I hope that you’ll be there to show us all how well you can behave when you really want to.
Best wishes,
