Dear David,

I want to apologise for the vase that I broke when I was housesitting for you last week. It was the white porcelain vase on the dinner table next to the dining set. From its appearance I can tell that it is an exquisite decorative item and I am terribly sorry for having broken it.

I want to explain to you that the damage was not intentionally done. I was just trying to help you clean the dining table as I could spot some dirt on the side of it. Unfortunately, I carelessly flung my arm a bit too much and pushed the vase off the table. Luckily, the vase was not broken to pieces, but the brim of it was chipped and there was a crack along its left side.

I believe I could fix this vase if you let me try. I’ve kept all of the broken pieces from the item and I could use strong glue to put it all together. Alternatively, I can compensate for my action by giving you a new vase similar to the one I have damaged.

Please tell me which option you prefer and I’ll be  more than happy to follow through with it. Warm regards,

Dear Mr. Schellhammer,

I am writing this letter to you to complain about the flat that you have arranged for me. I only moved into this flat three weeks ago but the situation is already getting out of hand.

The flat is completely infected with insects, especially cockroaches. I can hear them crawling around when I am in bed, which is too terrifying for me to have a good sleep. This also raises concerns about the sanitary of the whole place since I can’t even leave my food around the house without the fear of cockroaches being all over them.

When I asked for accommodation, I thought I was going to have a decent and clean place but this is definitely not what I have signed up for. I hope you can look into this problem now and call a pest control company to sort this situation out.

I am looking forward to hearing back from you.

Best regards,

Dear Jane,

How have you been doing lately? I hope that you are doing fine. I am writing this letter to give you some information about my apartment so you can feel comfortable while looking after it.

The apartment is located at 45B Abbey Road. It is a well-secured apartment so you need to use the key card I gave you to enter it. You don’t need to turn on the lights when you get in since the light system is automatic and it can easily sensor your movement. However, you should remember to close the windows if you use the air conditioner or else the electricity bills will go through the roof. Besides, I have two dogs that need to be fed at around 8:00 am everyday. Dog food is on the top shelf of the cupboard.

If there are any problems, please contact me as soon as possible or press 1 on the telephone to connect to the security guards. In case of fire, the emergency exits are located just down the hall, to the left of the apartment.

Best wishes,

Dear David,

How are you doing lately? I hope everything’s going well for you. As I told you in the previous letter, I am going to Japan to study next month! I am enrolled in a course in Engineering which will last for about 2 years. It is a part-time course so I should have plenty of time free!

Since my course only focuses on theoretical knowledge, I want to look for some real-life experience when I live in Japan. That’s the main reason why I want to find a part-time job, aside from my financial concerns. I know you are working as an engineer at the moment so I wonder if there is any internship position available at your company? I think your reference can tremendously help me in finding a suitable job.

Thank you so much for your help and I look forward to meeting you in person soon!

Best wishes,

Dear Sir/Madam,

My name is Hannah Eastwood. I am a 26 years old female from Nottingham. I came across your advertisement in the Sun newspaper and want to apply for the temporary cashier position at City Museum Shop.

I have 3 years experience working in the customer service sector. I used to work as a cashier at an ASDA store for 2 years and as a store helper for a year. I have excellent interpersonal skills as well as quick calculation ability. I believe my skills and experience can make me a good fit for this position.

I am interested in this job because I am a regular visitor of the Museum and I would love to challenge myself working in a new environment. I also appreciate the pay rate and benefits that this position can offer.

Thank you for your consideration and I am looking forward to hearing back from you.

Yours sincerely,

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am currently working for SHB Company located on the 25th floor of our building. I am writing this letter to inform you of the inconvenience that our employees have due to the lack of parking facilities in the building.

Most workers in my company drive cars to work and because there are no parking spaces available within the territory of the building, the nearest place they can park is at the supermarket 600m away from the office. This means that an average worker has to work an average 1.2km daily to get to and from their car.

I suggest that we should use the barren land at the back of the office as a temporary car park while thinking of a more long-term solution. I believe having parking next to the office would save a lot of time and energy for the employees and allow them to work more effectively.

Thank you for your consideration and I am looking forward to hearing back from you.

Yours sincerely,

Một số bài mẫu khác cho Task 1:

Bài 1: You recently ordered something online. When the delivery came it was not complete. Write a letter to the company. In your letter:

– Explain what you ordered and what was missing from your delivery
– Explain the importance of this delivery
– Ask for a replacement item to be sent

Dear Sir /Madam,

I am writing in regards with a recently purchased 42-inch LED T.V. from your online store on the 2nd of March 2019.

The order number is PQU331242 and my customer identification number is drp554435.Though, the television was delivered correctly, but the remote-control for the T.V. was missing.

Although the television works, it has been very inconvenient to operate it without the remote-control. I have an elderly mother who watches the television regularly and it has been very difficult for her to manually operate it. Moreover, some of the features like setting the picture resolution and quality of the audio are not accessible without the remote.

It has been three days since the television was delivered. Hence, I would like you to send me a new remote control within two days at maximum. Please send me an acknowledgment for this letter from your customer service as well.

Awaiting for your reply as soon as possible.

Yours Sincerely,

Mark Roberts

Bài 2: You successfully passed a job interview. You are expected to start on November 15, but you will not be available on that date.
Task: Write a letter to your new boss, explaining your situation, expressing your concern and suggesting a solution.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have recently cleared a job interview for the Software Engineer position at the Software Infrastructure group and I was expected to commence my duties from July 15, 2019 as agreed, but unfortunately, I will not be able to present myself on the agreed date.

During the interview, I estimated that I would require fifteen days to finish my activities at my current job and post that start at your company. However, due to fact that I got sick for the last whole week and was not able to work, I could not finish my tasks and will need another week to do so. Also, if necessary, I can give you a copy of a letter from my doctor informing that I had to stay at home under medical care during that week.

Moreover, to clear the backlog created by my late start, I can work two additional hours every day until I am able to cope up, either coming in early or leaving late. I feel responsible for the pressure my delayed start may have created on the company, and I am going to work harder until everything is back to normal.

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and hope this will not affect our relationship. If I am expected to present any other form of proof or talk to someone else in the company, please let me know.

Thanking You in advance.

Yours faithfully,

Paul Siam.

Bài 3: You visited a museum recently with an elderly relative. However, he or she had difficulty walking around the museum. Write a letter to the manager and say:

– Whom did you visit the museum with?
– What problems did he or she face?
– Suggest a solution that will improve the museum visit experience for an elderly person.

Dear Sir / Madam,

I am writing this letter as I have a suggestion to make. Last week I visited your museum with an elderly aunt of mine but, unfortunately the experience was not all that pleasant.

I visited the museum last week with an aunt of mine who had just come back from Canada. She was very excited to see the museum as she had heard that all the cars since the 16th century are displayed at your museum.

My aunt is in her late seventies and has trouble standing and walking for extended periods. We were hoping that the museum would arrange wheel chairs for elderly visitors but unfortunately, there weren?t any. It was quite disappointing because we had planned to spend the whole afternoon in the museum which we could not since my aunt cannot stand for extended periods.

I request you to take measures necessary to solve this problem as I feel that not having a facility as important as this will discourage elderly people from visiting the museum.

I hope you consider my suggestion. Thanking You.

Yours sincerely,

Jamy Patel.

Bài 4: Write a letter to the principal of a college in which you got accepted and say you cannot start the course. Please include in your letter:

– Which course had you applied for?
– Why cannot you start?
– Ask about the future courses availability.

Dear Sir,

I am writing this letter to inform you that I will not be able to commence the course this semester.

Last month, I applied for a full-time one year course in ?Computer Hacking? at your prestigious college ?Institute of Technology? and to my luck I got accepted, although I was not sure that I would get selected for admission to your college as my GPA is below 5.0.

However, I have to inform you that I cannot pursue my course this semester as I am going through a major financial crisis and would not be able to pay my course fees and overhead expenses such as rent, travel expenses and other utility bills. So, I have to postpone my studies for some time.

I would like to request you to provide me information about the availability of various courses and their fees structure for the next semester. Also, I would be grateful to you if you could suggest me some alternative ways to fund my course.

I am looking forward to hear from you soon regarding this matter.

Yours sincerely,

George Clooney

Bài 5:  You recently ordered something online. When the delivery came it was not complete.
Write a letter to the company. In your letter

– Explain what you ordered and what was missing from your delivery
– Explain the importance of this delivery
– Ask for a replacement item to be sent

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing this letter in specific reference to my recent online purchase from your company?s website: www.dellsales.com

Please note, I recently ordered a Dell Laptop (Model No. 348XCD1) from your e-store; the invoice copy is attached. While, I received the laptop and other free accessories, such as the headset and the external CD-drive, the charging cable of the laptop was missing from the package.

As this order was especially placed for my brother, whose birthday is in one week, unfortunately, I will now have to think of an alternate gift for my brother. Further, the laptop is not of any use without its external charger.

A lot of my time has already been wasted, and moreover, I am uncertain of the authenticity of this product, as the seal of the package was already open, and the charger was missing. Therefore, I would like to request for a replacement as soon as possible. The defective package can be picked up anytime during the week from my home address, which is the same where the product was delivered.

I look forward to hear back from you at the earliest.

Thank you.

Yours faithfully,

Jason Johnson
