TO. Holiday Inn´s Manager
SUBJECT: Lost t-shirt
Dear Sir/ Madam,
My name is Xilea XXX and I was in your Holiday Inn two days ago.
When I returned home, I noticed that I have not my favourite t-shirt in my suitcase. I have looked for this in all my baggage, but I have not been able to find it.
I think I left it in my room (room 383)... Could you ask Holiday Inn´s staff if they have found it, please? It is a blue t-shirt, without sleeves and with a superhero´s pattern, small size. Actually, it is not expensive, but it is very important for me, becouse it is my charm. I usually wear it when I need luck for something, for example to take a difficult exam. For this reason, I beg you to try to find it.
If you find it, it would be grateful if you could send it to my address. Of course, I would pay for all cost. Thank you for your attention,
Faithfully,
Xilea XXX

Exercise 2.
Dear Agatha,
How are you? I hope you are fine. I got your letter yesterday and I decided to write you as soon as possible.
I am going to tell you what happened when I was looking for Atila the last Easter. I think that it was my fault, because I did not ask to Caren how Atila was. I should have presume that with this name...Atila was a big dog. Actually, he is a huge dog (nearly seventy kilogrames).
The problem was that I live in a tiny flat --there are only one bathroom and two rooms, one is my bedroom and the other is kitchen and livingroom at the same time. Atila was very unconfortable because he barely was able to move. Every morning and every afternoon, we went out to run and walk to the park, but in the evenings, when I went to bed, he started to be more and more nervous. He bit my cushions, pissed on my armchair and I was not able to sleep for these two weeks because he yelled all of the night (my neighbours complained to me too).
It was not Atila´s fault, it was only that he needs more space. I have heard that you have a big house with a beautiful yard, so I think that Atila will be delighted with you.
If you need more information about Atila, please do not hesitate for asking me.
Best wishes,

Exercise "Letter to the editor"
Dear Mr/ Madam
I have just read in your newspaper that you are looking for someone who has contributed very much to our community and I would like to suggest to Mercedes Chavafel. I am sure that you know her, because she is very popular, everybody knows her in our community.
Mercedes has worked like teacher at the local school for thirty five years teaching many generations during this time. All the students respect and love her because she is strict, but also kind... and she really cares about student´s problems.
Everyday, in the afternoon, Mercedes comes back to the school to help the students who get the worst marks in their exams. She knows that their families have not enough money to pay a private teacher, and for this reason she does it absolutely free. Mercedes is not alredy young, she is sixty years old, and a lot of times she looks tired, but she continues working very hard for "her children".
If you choose her like the person who most deserves this price, I think that the perfect reward for her could be a books lot for her school. Through this way, she would be able to lend them to the students and work with them.
Thank you for you attention,
Faithfully,

Travel
I was in England a few days ago. It was my first time in this country and I liked it. Incredibly, there was sunny and hot weather, (everybody told me that this was no usual ). I went to British Museum, it is absolutely huge and everybody should visit it someday. My favorite part is Egipcian Art. I went to Stonehenge too, an especial and magic place and to Salisbury Cathedral, possibly one of the most beautiful cathedrals I've ever seem. I can't go to other place which I want to see: Cambridge University. This was no possible. Maybe next time...
Thank you for read me and correct me!
