A large company in your area has decided to spend a certain amount of money, either to sponsor a local children’s sports team for two years, or to pay for two open-air concerts. It has asked for feedback from the general public. Write a letter to the company. In your letter • describe the benefits of sponsoring the sports team • summarise the benefits of paying for the concerts • say how you think the company should spend the money

Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to express my opinion on the upcoming decision that your company has to make to allocate sponsorship to children’s

However
, paying for the concerts would provide a unique form of entertainment for a wider audience. There is a dearth of free options in the
community
for entertainment and bringing everyone together would create better bonds among all cultures and generations. In my view,
while
the concerts would be enjoyable for some, they would not have the same long-term benefits for the
community
as sponsoring the

team. Based on
this
, I think the company should allocate the money to sponsor the local children’s
sports
team for two years. Thank you for considering my opinion. Yours faithfully, Gary Smith

writing tone
To further elevate your writing tone, try to personalize the greeting rather than using the generic 'Sir or Madam', if possible. This minor adjustment can add a touch of personalization and warmth to your letter.
logical structure
For an even more engaging and solid structure, consider adding transitional phrases between paragraphs to ensure a smoother flow of ideas. This technique can help to guide your reader through your argumentation more seamlessly.
single idea per paragraph
You've done a great job focusing on a single idea per paragraph, which enhances the letter's clarity and readability. To improve even further, consider adding brief examples or anecdotes to support your points, making your argumentation more vivid and persuasive.

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.
