Chris

this

letter makes up for it. I think it's a fantastic idea to surprise

party. Unfortunately, I will be unable to attend your celebration

due to

my final university exams. It is critical for me to pass those with flying colours, so I am cramming every day. I believe

Chris

Chris

during that time.

, my parents would like to invite you to our new home for supper and spend time together enjoying the stunning landscape on our terrace.

Moreover

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.

The media should limit how much bad news they report because it discourages people from doing activities which usually involve very little risk. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

However, some people think that media should limit the broadcasting of bad news since people are scared to take up even small risk in their day to day livelihood.
