Your neighbour has written to you to complain about the noise from your flat. Write a letter to your neighbour. In your letter • explain the reason for the noise • offer your neighbour an apology • tell them what action you will take.

Dear Mr William, I am writing to apologise for the noise that was produced during the reconstruction of the
fence
of my garden.
Last
weekend, the weather condition was very worst. The
fence
of my garden was damaged under the strong wind. As the broken
fence
may lead to a security problem in my home, I have hired a construction company to repair it . The workers have started the reconstruction
last
Monday and it may take 6 to 8 days to build a new
fence
. I understand the sound that we created during the construction period is very annoying and it affects your children's studying environment.
Therefore
, I have hired 2 more workers for
this
reconstruction project and hope that the new
fence
could be installed as soon as possible.
Also
, in order to provide a quiet studying environment for your kids, I have ordered the constructors to stop working after 4 o'clock in the afternoon. I hope you will understand the circumstance and please accept my apology once again. Yours sincerely, Jason Chan
