Dear Aline,

Hope you are in good health. First of all, I want to apologize for not writing back to you for so long. The thing is I am feeling very guilty to tell you that the comic book that you had sent me last week has been teared down by my niece while playing.

What happened was, I was busy in penning down notes for my upcoming presentation and the comic book was on my writing table besides me when my niece-unaware of its importance, thought of it any other rough book-teared the pages. All of it happened so suddenly that I couldn’t stopped her at the right moment.

I am aware that comic book was very dear to you as it was a present given by you late sister. I promise i will try to fix it as possible as i can and for that I have already send it to the paper binding shop next to my home. I hope they find ways to glue down all the pages.

Once again I apologize for my irresponsible behaviour.

Much love,

Sarah

Task Response

The letter addresses all three points of the task by apologizing for damaging the product, explaining what happened, and stating how the issue will be fixed. However, the apology could be more direct and focused on the damage caused to the comic book.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is coherent and cohesive overall. The ideas are presented in a logical order, and there is a clear progression from apologizing to explaining the situation and offering a solution. However, there are some minor lapses in cohesion that could be improved for a higher score.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is varied and mostly appropriate for the context. There is an attempt to use a range of vocabulary, but some expressions could be more precise and sophisticated. Consider incorporating more advanced vocabulary to enhance lexical resource.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter demonstrates a good range of grammatical structures with mostly accurate use of punctuation and grammar. Some minor errors are present, such as 'teared' instead of 'torn' and 'stopped' instead of 'stop'. Proofreading for such errors can further improve grammatical accuracy.
