Условие
  1. a) Look at Matt’s answer. Has he included all the necessary information? Is the letter written in an appropriate style? Why/Why not?  

 

Hi!

 

What a cool idea to have a party for Steve! I’d love to help you out!

 

If I were you, I’d invite all Steve’s friends from his class at school and from his football team, too. I’ll send you all their email addresses if you like.I don’t think a theme party’s such a great idea. The kids are a bit too old for that! For entertainment, you can hire a DJ to play music. Steve will go nuts when he sees that! 

 

I want to ask a couple of things too. Is the party going to be on Steve’s birthday, which falls on a Thursday, or at the weekend? What time will it start? Do you want a hand with the food preparations? 

 

That’s all for now. See you at the party!

 

Lots of love,

 

Matt  

  1. b) Rewrite the letter in a more appropriate style. Compare your letter with your partner’s.  

 

Rubric analysis

 

Always think about the situation in the rubric. This will help you plan your writing. Read the rubric carefully and find the key words. These indicate:

 

  • the imaginary situation you will write about, who you are, and the reason why you are writing.
  • the imaginary reader who is going to read your piece of writing. 

 

This will help you decide on:

  • the writing style you should use; formal, semi-formal or informal.
  • the type of writing task.
  • the specific topics you should include in your piece of writing.  

 

Решение #1

Matt’s letter includes all the necessary information requested by Mrs. Jacobs: 

  • guest suggestions
  • an opinion on the theme party
  • entertainment ideas

 

However, the style is too informal because it uses: 

  • colloquialisms («cool idea,» «help you out,» «go nuts»)
  • contractions (“I’d”, “I’ll”)
  • very casual closing («Lots of love,» «See you at the party!»).  

Dear Mrs. Jacobs,

 

Thank you for your email; what a wonderful idea to celebrate Steve’s 18th birthday with a surprise party! I would be happy to assist with the preparations.

 

To ensure a memorable celebration, I suggest inviting Steve’s close friends from school and his football team. If you wish, I can forward you their contact details. I think a themed party might be less suitable for his age group. Hiring a DJ to provide music would create a lively and enjoyable atmosphere.

 

To help with the planning, I would be grateful if you could clarify a few points. Would you prefer to hold the party on Steve’s birthday, or at the weekend? What time are you hoping to begin the party? Would you appreciate any assistance with the catering?

 

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

 

Sincerely,

 

Matthew
