Coherence & Cohesion
Ensure that each paragraph has a clear central idea and that the transitions between paragraphs are smooth. Avoid abrupt changes in topic.
Coherence & Cohesion
Consistently use appropriate formal greetings and sign-offs in your letters. 'Dear Sir/Madam,' and 'Yours faithfully,' are suitable, but ensure they are formatted correctly with commas and capitalization.
Task Achievement
Directly address all three bullet points in the task with equal development. While you did mention the item lost and the desired action, more detail on how you lost the item could enhance the response.
Task Achievement
Maintain a formal tone throughout the letter; avoid casual language and contractions. Additionally, check your writing for grammatical accuracy and clarity.

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.
