Few people devote time to hobbies nowadays. Say why you think this is the case and what effect this has on the individual and society in general. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

There is a tendency, nowadays, that a noticeable part of
individuals
do

at all.
As a result
of
such

,
people
start losing their own identity and begin more

. In my opinion, devoting
time
to
hobbies
is an essential part of

's life;
therefore
, a
lack
of
such
individuals
with
hobbies
will lead to a
lack
of creative

in society in general. Since we live in the era of the internet,
people
around the world have more opportunities for any sort of content they want.
Consequently
, these

Thus
, in my personal view, will negatively affect
such

because our

The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

  • Dear + name
  • Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

  • Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
  • Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
