You would like to request time off from work for a family function.
Write a letter to your manager. In your letter:
Give details of the event
Explain why you need time off
Suggest how your work could be managed during your absence
Dear Sir,
I hope you are doing well. I am writing to request some time off from work on May 28, because I need to attend a family function.
My parents will celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary on May 29. On that occasion, my brother and I planned a party for them. The event will take place in the morning, and I need to finalise a few designs and the menu with the catering team on May 28 at noon time around 4 PM.
I need time off for 4 hours on that day, which means I'll leave the office at 1 PM and will go straight to the catering office, to finalise some important arrangements.
Meanwhile, I have already talked with John to have a closer look at my support inbox, in case any high-priority ticket gets raised. He agreed to take care of that.
Thanks for understanding my concern.
Sincerely,
Mohit

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.
It is certainly true that in the past couple of years, the stress on school and university students has significantly increased and that they are being pushed to the extreme limits at a young age. I believe this leads to a positive development, which I have discussed below in detail.
Globally, in many countries' schools, the school uniform is mandatory for every student. A school uniform is nothing but formal and unique attire or a dress code that is given by school management and followed by every child at that school.
Taking a year off between finishing school or college and starting university is a popular choice for young people, especially among European and American undergraduates. Generally, doing so doesn't negatively affect their educational progress. Moreover, how this time is spent can lead to invaluable experiences before beginning higher education."
In the coming years, trucks and buses will be driverless. The only people who travel inside these vehicles will be passengers. While driverless can probably increase the unemployment rate, the transportation cost can be reduced. Thus, I think that the advantages of driverless outweigh the disadvantages.
It is often argued that printed newspapers and books will lose their value in the near future because more people will prefer to read e-books rather than getting hard copies. In my view, I strongly agree that getting online books and articles will be more beneficial because it provides easy access to different genres of books and newspapers and a chance to save money.
