Writing Task 1: Writing an Email

Read the following information.

You are a resident of a large colony. You found a gold chain in the colony compound. You are willing to find the owner of the chain and therefore want the help of the authority.

Write an email to the Manager of the colony in about 150-200 words. Your email should do the following things:

  • Give a description of the chain and the place where you found it.
  • Ask help from Secretary of the colony in tracing the owner

Dear Colony Manager, My name is Thomas. I am writing this email to ask for your assistance regarding the gold chain I found in the colony compound last week, together with my daughter. Last Saturday, around lunchtime, when me and my daughter walking past the Administration office, we saw a gorgeous 18 karat white gold chain with a tiny heart pendant. At first, we think that this is fake. However, upon checking the pawnshop, it is accurate, and it is 18 karats white gold. We tried to locate and asked around if anyone knows who is the owner of the jewellery. But, unfortunately, no one knows. That is why I am asking your good office to help us find the owner of the gold chain. Your secretary, have access to the colonies' member and their address. So, maybe we could try to trace the owner. I look forward to hearing from you about this idea. Let me know your thoughts. Thank you for your time. Regards Thomas
