SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Mr and Mrs. Joshi,
I am writing this letter to bring to your notice the problems I am facing because of your dog.
 
You must be already aware of the breed of your dog and the its characteristics. Being a wild dog, it is very obvious that it is going to growl and make loud noises. Recently, the dog has also started making small detours at night around the neighborhood and digging holes in the gardens.
 
The issue is that I am quite weak at sleep and often get up by the noises. This has led to improper sleep and work issues in my office. I had even consulted a doctor and started taking sleeping pills but then they are having side effects on my body and I cannot continue with it. In addition, I have my GMAT exam next month. Not getting proper sleep is taking toil on me and can create problems in the exam.
 
I will be grateful if you could keep your dog away for some time, either in a friend or family house or in the dog care center at least till my exam is over, which is one month from now.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Anmol.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear Mrs. Rathore,

I hope you and your family are well. I am writing this letter in regards to the problem I am facing with the new tenant that has moved in the apartment next to mine. I have been living here since past two years and it has always been great living here, until now.

Few months ago, a person named Jack, moved in to live next door. Although it had been fine in the beginning with little issues, things have worsen in recent times. The issue is that Jack is a professional model and I understand that partying is a part of his profession. But with time the number of parties have increased. The problem is that he parties in night which are accompanied with loud music.

Being in the business of entertainment, the problem does not irritates me much but my children are school going. The loud music tends to disturb their sleep often leading to poor performance in school. Talking to jack has been to no avail and there was no option left.

I would appreciate it if you could speak to Jack and ask him to lower the volume of music.

I will let you know as soon as the situation improves.

Yours faithfully,

Anmol

You are studying a short course in another country. Your accommodation was arranged by the course provider. There is a major problem with the accommodation.

Write at least 150 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear course provider,

I am Alice Degeneres studying a eight week intensive course at Oxford University. My tuition fee is covered by me, however, the accomodation was provided by  your company. It is expected that I pass my final exams with a great score and get an on-campus placement. With the work pressure increasing, it is very important for me to be able to study in a pleasant environment.

I am staying at Everton Hostel. The course is fantastic, however I am finding issues with accommodation. When the accommodation was provided I was assured that I will be provided a single room, however with time, three different students have settled in my room, claiming the accommodation was provided by you. Even more they tend to party in the house and bring in friends, which becomes really difficult for me to study. I am in final year, and require a single room that could help me to focus on my studies properly.

I wonder if I am moved to a hostel which is more conducive to serious study, or I may use the remainder of my accommodation to go towards payment for a hostel.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,
Alice Degeneres
