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.

Tobacco should be treated as illegal like other drugs. Smoking has not a single positive issue, but lots of negative effect. Therefore it should be banned.
As smoking numbers steadily drop, the dangerous logic of prohibition becomes more tempting. Anti-smoking groups present cigarettes as a product absent of any benefits and, therefore, always push for banning cigarettes. This essay supports smoking by first proposing reasons it should remain legal, and then arguing for its positive attributes.

Around the world, children learn English as a second language at school. However, in some places, they also learn at kindergarten (pre-school care, when children are aged two to five). Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of learning English at kindergarten.
These days, many people believe that learning an English subject early has many benefits because it has been shown to improve a student's language skills. Some countries have had mixed results after early education, so it is clear that many people have diverse ideas about this issue. Weighing up both sides, I believe that there are more upsides than negatives that the English curriculum brings about.
