Writing Task 1: Writing an Email

Read the following information.

Recently you visited the Zoological park and had an uncanny experience, as a man died by falling in the tiger’s enclosure. You were not able to do anything at that point but wanted to show your concern for the safety of the visitors.

Write an email to the Director of the Zoological Park in about 150-200 words. Your email should do the following things:

  • Give a description of the incident
  • Complain about the short fencing
  • Show your concern for the safety of the visitors

Respected Director Zoological Park, I am writing this e-mail about an unfortunate incident. I visited the Zoo on 10th August 2019, at 11: 30 am, along with my kids. As mentioned earlier, we came across a horrible accident. As we were looking around and kids enjoying themselves, we saw a man trying to click a pic of the tiger, bent forwards and fell into the tiger enclosure and got killed. As it happened all of a sudden, we could not do much and were terrified and shocked. I am sure this would not have happened if the fence for the enclosures were higher. I am shocked at the shortsightedness of the management in overlooking these essential safety measures. This incident had a traumatic effect on the children as well as adults. The primary concern of the Zoo management should have been the safety of the visitors as families with young kids visit the Zoo. Firstly for the safety of the visitors, I would suggest raising the fence. Secondly, there needs to be another safety enclosure around the first one, which would act as a second layer of safety in times of an accident. I hope you would consider and implement these suggestions. Regards, Mark
