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

Dear Director, I was at your Zoo Park last Sunday with my family, and we witnessed a sad incident. A man fell into the tigers' enclosure and died. My family and I, along with many other people, including this man, were watching the tiger's enclosure. The fence that separates the people from the local where the tiger is kept is short enough to allow an average person to jump over it if someone can ever think of it. This man was taken some pictures with his camera and all of a sudden, he fell and became unconscious. Everybody started to scream and yield for help. The animal just smelled him, probably because he was not hungry. Unfortunately, when support came and took off the man, they realized he was already dead. I am very concerned about the safety of that place, and it is the reason I am writing to you. The tiger's enclosure should have a taller fence, and staff people should be there to ensure people are safe. Hoping you will consider my suggestions. I thank you in advance. Regards Tony
