Model Answer
Task-1
Dear
Sir or Madam,
I have recently purchased a studio apartment in
Perth which is in the vicinity of your shop. I would like to purchase some
electronic equipment for my apartment and writing to inquire about the
availability of those products.
I require a toaster, a hand blender, a microwave
oven, a big size mixie, a juicer, a dishwasher and a couple of fans along with
a dozen LED lights. I would like you to appraise me regarding their
availability (off the shelf) in your shop. In the case of an affirmative
response, you may also provide a quote for all the above-mentioned items, at
the earliest. On the contrary, if the items are not in stock, would it be
convenient for you to place an order for the entire lot for me? You must also
mention discounts if any, brand name and product specifications for those
items.
I have plans to drop down in a week following
this weekend, which happens to be on 17th September. I would also humbly
request you to inform me of the duration till the time you will be able to
retain the electronic equipment for me.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Yours faithfully,
John
Task-2
It
is often argued that decreasing the demands of transport is the only key to
suppress city congestion. In my opinion,
I partly agree with the ideas of reducing people's need to travel, but it is
not the only solution for transport.
On
one hand, in order to decrease people movement from one place to another by
vehicles is by developing a smart city and only could happen with the
collaboration of property developers and government.This is an idea of
recreating a small area inside a cityitself with a lot of properties.
However,
unlike many developed countries which has a stable and reliable economy to
invest in the project, other developing countries are still unable to afford
that feature. Due to the high amount of cost and issues which are considered
higher in priority than congestion.For example, Jakarta which is the capital city of Indonesia are
popular for its daily traffic jam. Even though Indonesia is not considered a
poor country, but the amount of money that could be poured are still low
compared to education, health, and food supplies. Thus, without enough money
and commitment from the government, many developers are unable to trust and
invest in this project. That's why, reducing traffic in urban area are not the
only and best solution.
On
the other hand, planning and developing a public transportis still the most
favourite method to bring down congestion in a city. One of the main reason of
people in urban area choose to use private accommodation is poor facility
provided. For instance, cityin many developing countries, such
as
Bangkok, does not have a decent public transportation to use. The buses and
trains are not maintained properly and only cover a few routes to explore. Consequently,
people will leave public transport and choose to buy their
own vehicles. So, the government need to upgrade public
transport for people to use.
In
conclusion, by reducing people needs of transport is not the only solution for
traffic because it is a difficult task to be done. Using public transportation
could be the best way to decrease the amount of vehicles used by citizens.
