Dear John, I am James Muir, a final year computer science graduate student from the University of San Jose, United States. I am excited to write

this

letter to seek additional information about my accommodation for the crash course at the University of Oxford.

Firstly

, I want to restate that I am enrolled on the course conducted by Prof Jason Bourne about the Influence of Machine Learning in the field of medicine.

This

session is going to start on 1st January 2022 and

last

for 4 days - till 5th January. To get accustomed to the weather as well as to get an extra day to communicate with fellow students, I am planning to reach the hostel on 30th December 2021.

However

, I will be heading back on the

last

day of the session itself.

Secondly

, I do not have any special accommodation needs. I am good with any dorm room that has a bed and attached bathroom. Since

this

would be my

first

trip to the university, any information on reaching the premises is really appreciated. My flight will be landing at Dulles airport, which is roughly 60 kilometres away from the hostel. I am grateful for the support and service your team is providing for the international students. Let me know if you need any additional details. Regards, James

Today, the high sales of popular consumer goods reflect the power of advertising and not the real needs of the society in which they are sold. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It is argued that sale promotion has such huge influences on the consumption of best-selling products that people no longer buy what they really want. Although I think that the impacts of advertisement on customers’ behaviors are inevitable, I hold a strong belief that consumers buying goods depends mainly on their true demands.
