Dear Sir/Madam, My name is Shozab Raza Ansari and I took a flight via British Airways
last
week to arrive in London, United Kingdom. The number of the flight was 717 and it originated from New Delhi, India. After getting off the aircraft, I forgot to collect one of my bags and did not realise
this
until I had reached my hotel. The
bag
which I left at the airport was an American Tourister blue coloured suitcase with black handles and wheels.
This
bag
contained my personal belongings
such
as clothes, my wristwatch and formal shoes. The
bag
also
included some of my professional items as well ,
for example
, official documents, stationary and an electronic notepad. I looked for the
bag
in the lost and found area of the airport but I was not able to locate it.
Therefore
, I would kindly request you to find my
bag
and notify me as soon as possible via e-mail or telephone number which I had provided at the time of my booking. Yours sincerely, Shoaib Raza Ansari

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
