GENERAL WRITING TASK 1

Write a letter to your friend to request information about the city you are planning to move to and in your letter, write the following:

– Where and when you want to work

– What type of job it is

– For how long you want to work there

SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear Suresh,

I hope you are doing well and enjoying your life.

It’s been quite long that I couldn’t write to you as I was planning my visit to your city, London. I feel lucky enough that my company has selected me for a project in London and I would be reaching there in the next month.

My London based project is a great opportunity for me where I would be interacting with some clients for presenting business proposals and further finalizing the deals. This is a full-time job of day shift but sometimes, I may need to work in night shifts. As I am new to the city, I need some help from you if you can give some information such as the rent charges, food prices, availability of public transport, facility of banking and others. Since you are already in the city, I think you can be of great help in gaining familiarity to the city.

I would be staying in London for 2 years after which the project ends and I hope we will have great fun together in London.

Yours truly,

………………
