Dear Sir/ Madam,

I’m writing because I was on the beach with some friends last weekend and the amount of rubbish we found there was unbelievable.

I think there are possibly two reasons for this. Firstly, people aren’t responsible enough and they throw their rubbish away anywhere. Perhaps we need a few signs and people to patrol the beach. Also, there aren’t enough bins on or near the beach, so I think we need more. Secondly, nobody cleans the beach. I think this is terrible in a tourist town. We need people to clean the beach and empty the bins every day.

We must definitely do something about this situation. We must do it right away if we want a cleaner, and more attractive beach.

Your faithfully, Alan

My family usually shops at the supermarket. The supermarket provides a wide range of goods which are displayed under one roof. This helps save a lot of time. If you go to a local market, you have to go to a lot of stores and stalls to buy stuff which is really time-consuming and tiring. Another advantage of shopping in the supermarket is that you can have more options for the same product for you to choose. For example, there are often one or two fixed brands of soap to choose from in a store, but you can see about 10 – 15 brands of soap if you go to the supermarket. Another thing we like to shop in the supermarket is that you can enjoy your shopping experience without worrying about the weather. A lot of people come to the supermarket to avoid the heating or rain from outside. To summarize, we like to shop in the supermarket because there are a lot of kinds of goods, each goods has many options to choose, and we can enjoy shopping without worrying about the weather.

My family usually shops at the supermarket. The supermarket provides a wide range of goods which are displayed under one roof. This helps save a lot of time. If you go to a local market, you have to go to a lot of stores and stalls to buy stuff which is really time-consuming and tiring. Another advantage of shopping in the supermarket is that you can have more options for the same product for you to choose. For example, there are often one or two fixed brands of soap to choose from in a store, but you can see about 10 – 15 brands of soap if you go to the supermarket. Another thing we like to shop in the supermarket is that you can enjoy your shopping experience without worrying about the weather. A lot of people come to the supermarket to avoid the heating or rain from outside. To summarize, we like to shop in the supermarket because there are a lot of kinds of goods, each goods has many options to choose, and we can enjoy shopping without worrying about the weather.
