You are unhappy about a plan to make your local airport bigger and increase the number of flights. You live near the airport. Write a letter to your local newspaper. In your letter: • explain where you live • describe the problem • give reasons why you do not want this development

Dear Sir, I am writing to bring your attention to the situation with the development of a local

airport

as it would bring some negative consequences to people living near the

airport

. I would be appreciative if you publish an article in your newspaper raising

this

issue. My name is Kao Mao. I live in a small village “Merke” which is located 2 km away from the

airport

and with a population of about 2000 people. The local government has recently decided to expand the

airport

by building two additional sections.

Also

, they are planning to build a runway

with

. The main reason why I do not support

this

development is that our lovely park and

kindergarten will be diminished in order to build a runway.

In addition

, it is extremely difficult to live near the

airport

as harsh noises are frequent and by making the

airport

bigger noises will become unbearable. Your newspaper has a high reputation and the publication about

this

development will help us to persuade the local government to reconsider the plan. Thank you for your time and consideration. Yours faithfully, Kao Mao
