SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear Avi,

Thank you for the beautiful memories that we made last summer in Goa, and those lovely photos that you sent me. I am sorry, I could not reply you earlier. The day I received your letter, I was about to leave for a one month travel to three cities. I have just returned to Sydney few days back.

Looking at the photos brings back so many memories of the times we spent together. It was  a complete fun enjoying holidays with you and our gang. Trust me I felt as if I am back to college. Those late night chats, dance, visiting unknown places, doing those pranks; I can’t thank you enough for those beautiful memories.

I am in Sydney right now, and there is carnival next month. It is one of the most beautiful and exciting event the city holds. And it would be real fun if you along with Anish, Abhilasha and Nemyer could come. The carnival has dance, music, games and so much that you would remember your entire life.

I would be thrilled if you could make it.

Thank you both again for the beautiful holiday and the photos which are already up on my wall. Now, I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

With love,

Anmol.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear Ma’am,

I am sorry I have not written for so long. My work keeps me so busy, that I never have a minute to myself. I hope this letter finds you in good health. I hope that everything is great in school and the students still love the fantastic way you  used to teach. I have written to share with you a great news, I have got job in BBC.

You must be knowing how much it is important for me and for how long I have been waiting for this opportunity. It was only three days ago that I have got a job offer letter from BBC and they have provided a list of the required documents. One of them is a reference from a teacher.

The job requires  me to travel all over the world and interact with people and know about their culture. The content will then be uploaded on the official site of BBC along with the videos of my visit. This job is a dream come true for me.

Ma’am, I would be requiring a letter of recommendation along with a document showing the work I have done at school. I would be very thankful to you if you could send me the required documents immediately.

With love,

Anmol.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear Lavanya,
I am sorry I haven’t written for so long. After the holidays, the work pressure was so high that I never had a minute to myself. I am writing to thank you for the fantastic holiday that you made possible.

It was a long time since we stayed together and living at your house was a perfect retreat to our old times. Going to the same places we went when we were young and meeting those people was simply fantastic. I am still missing the 2 o clock ice cream and the long walks near the beach, outside your house. There was so much that you did to make this holiday memorable and I appreciate every bit of it. Memories of the taylor swift concert that we went and the open fire campaign keep coming back in my mind and make me smile.

And I must tell you, your house is simply beautiful and you have kept it in a way that makes it more amazing to live in. I really loved your bedroom and the drawing room, especially because of the lovely candles and the perfect photos you have hung there. I think words will be less to describe how amazing the trip was and how much I am missing those times.

I have recieved the photos few days back and I am sending them along with this letter. I hope you will love them.

With love,
Anmol.

– What book was it?

SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear Madam,
I am sorry I have not written for so long. My work keeps me so busy, that I never have a minute to myself. I am writing to tell you about how fantastic the book was.

The book I am talking about is “the mocking bird by Harper lee”.I know it has been long since I took the book and I am really sorry for it. But the book was truly awesome. I remember re reading the entire book five times because of its lovely content. In some sense, the book was a true eye opener.

It shows in a very subtle manner the issues that people from backward classes or the minorities face. Even better it tries to bring to notice the fact that no matter what the big issues are prevailing there are still some people who are moved by the feeling of being human.

Ma’am I had read the entire book five months ago but then I got a call from the BBC to be a part of a new tv series covering the entire India. I was so very excited that I just forgot. It is only now that I have come back and saw the book lying on my desk. I am yet again sorry for the delay Ma’am and I hope you will understand my situation.
With love and many thanks from me.
Anmol
